    I thought you had to beat up a champ to beat the champ? Wow. Pacman robbed.

    Boxing looks like the biggest joke ever right now. Horrific, ugly call on this fight. Nonsensical.

    I'd suggest a rematch but Bradley didn't earn it

    If I wanted to pay $55 to see corruption, I'd have donated money to a politician.

    This doesn't even make sense. Bradley would be nuts to take a rematch. Pacquiao is going to obliterate him if they fight again.

    When the guy who wins a fight says "I've got to look at the tape" to see if he won, that's a pretty telling statement about his sport.

    Maybe Tim Bradley won some rounds while Manny Pacquiao was missing before the fight.

    The clear winners tonight are Tim Bradley and everyone who didn't get hornswoggled into buying that sham.

    No one has ever had a better night in the Clark County Detention Center than Floyd Mayweather is currently having

    Blame here has to fall on Pacquaio's strategy of punching Bradley more often and harder

    I'm still on the PPV channel waiting for it to come back on and tell me this was all an elaborate ruse.

    The Boston Celtics should see if they can get the Pacquiao-Bradley judges to re-score game 7 of the Eastern Conference Finals.

    Mayweather didn't lose money tonight. He gained percentage points in inevitable Pacquiao contract negotiations

    Boxing isn't dead. Nothing that's dead owns every worldwide trend. It just sucks.
