Thread: All Things Boxing

    I didnt see the 2nd as a Bradley round.

    Altho I meant 3-5 were when Manny clearly won, so my mistake.

    the 2nd round was a close round that I gave to Manny.

    Serious question: Was there a single respected boxer or "boxing expert" who thought Bradley won that fight?

    FWIW, anyone suggesting the HBO crew was pro-Pacquiao or biased in his favor wasn't watching/listening to the broadcast. Before the fight, both Kellerman and Steward were pushing Bradley hard, claiming he was more dangerous than people thought. It was Pacquiao's performance that turned them.

    I haven't seen one.

    Kellerman & Steward are the sane ones, its that Lampley character that's terrible. He talks the most so I guess most start to attribute his ramblings to his partners in crime.

    If Brian Kenny was ever respected, he just lost a lot of respect. Dude obviously has an agenda.

    Chris Mannix from SI.com had it 115-113 Bradley, the guy doing the British broadcast with Khan had it close but I don't think he ever gave a score just did it round by round.

    It's not the "HBO telecast" that is über-pro PAC, it's Jim Lampley, and he's pretty shameless about it. The Bradley fight is not the best example, go watch PAC/JMM 3 and try and get a hold of the British telecast and compare it to Lampley slobbering all over himself anytime PAC connects with a punch.

    Wrong. Mannix had it 115-113 in favor of Pac.

    That nothing compared to what he pulled during a Mayweather fight some years ago. He actually was talking to Mayweather in the middle of a round during a fight. I forget who May was fighting, but he had every right to knock Lampley's teeth down his throat if he wanted too.

    EDIT: Here's the video. Skip to the 1.12 mark.

    I saw that he didn't start it him and I think Roy Jones was talking about the playoffs and Mayweather heard them talking and answered, then he asked Floyd a question a few seconds later. But too say BANG 16 times in a matter of 20 seconds is crazy. The guy is a nut and Merchant last take is no better, most the time It leaves me stratching my head thinking what the hell is this guy talking about.

    You didn't hear the part where Lampley asked Floyd who he had in a football game?

    Your right I misread his chat. Although he had Bradley winning 1,5,7,8,12 which I don't think anyone had him doing (at least 5)

    Link to Media Scorecards

    Out of 91 media members one had the fight for Bradley and one had it a draw.
