Which rounds did bradley win

Pacquiao controlled the round with his quickness, getting in and getting out, with no answer from Bradley. It was mainly an uneventful round with neither guy doing much. Pacquiao was more active and Bradley looked deflated, especially with his reaction at the end when he threw his right glove down in disgust.

He's boxing his best, but Pacquiao looks incredible. Bradley came out like he did in the eighth with Pacquiao not having an answer. It all changed with one shot. Pacquiao landed a short left hook that knocked Bradley and almost flipped him over. Bradley looked deflated heading to his corner. Bradley came out like a man on a mission in this round and needed something dramatic to try to gain momentum.

He landed a left hook that caught Pacquiao's attention and landed another left that sent Pacquiao back against the ropes. Bradley seemed to gain more energy at the end of the round. The round was even until the final minute and it seemed like another round was slipping from Bradley again. Pacquiao then landed a straight left and then a right uppercut that knocked Bradley down.

Bradley got up and Pacquiao tried to finish the fight to no avail. Pacquiao is landing more power shots mainly with his right hand. Bradley keeps backing up and is not disrupting Pacquiao's rhythm.

Bradley was winning the round being more effective with his left hand. She is suggesting here that if Pacquiao had put forth more effort, he would have likely won the fight, which she saw as very close. This fight was not close, as nearly everyone else who watched the fight saw and the punch stats show. Even if Pacquiao lost the last two rounds, the fight should have been scored He elaborated a bit, but did not clear up the glaring flaws in his case.

Bradley certainly did move around, but not nearly enough. He went toe-to-toe with Pacquiao far more often than he should have in the fight, and Pacman showed off his speed in these situations.

As for his comment that a fighter must win the last two rounds of a bout to get a victory, this makes no sense unless the judges suffer from short-term memory loss. A fighter must win the majority of the 12 rounds to win the fight. Manny Pacquiao bout with the volume down, and then score the fight. Jim Lampley, Max Kellerman, Emanuel Steward and especially Harold Lederman, drastically slanted the perception of this bout for the public.

It is very difficult not to become a slave to the commentary. We respect the announcers' opinions and resumes, but at the end of the day, they reflect only one vantage point, and one opinion per person. That's what judging a fight has come to: Harold Lederman, the best scorer in the age of televised boxing, is now offers no more than "one opinion per person"—his counts for nothing more than anyone else's.

Mazique says that HBO's Max Kellerman "said he spoke to three people at ringside whose opinion he trusts and they said they had Bradley winning the fight. I put more stock in three unnamed people that someone said Kellerman said he talked to than I put in Bob Arum's outrage. Mazique says he had Bradley wining the fight; so far he's the only one I know of who has put this opinion into print.

His judgment is based on a strange reading of the CompuBox fiures: "Look at the total punches thrown in the last three rounds," he writes, "Bradley was the more active fighter in those rounds. In the ninth round, Pacquiao the more punches, but Bradley landed more. Even acknowledging that Bradley might have won the ninth round, this statement is baffling. To single out one point, in the last two rounds Bradley threw punches to Pacquiao's , but he landed a total of 11 fewer, One of Mazique's criteria for scoring a fight is "who was more active?

As far as I know, this is a unique method for judging a boxing match: activity. Bradley simply threw more punches in those rounds, as indeed he did throughout the fight. That they had no discernible effect on Pacquiao seems to be beside the point; for that matter, the fact that Bradley failed to land the vast majority of them doesn't seem to matter either.

I submit to you that anyone who claims that a fight should be judged on the basis of "activity" is perpetuating a sham. If Pacquiao landed more punches, what difference does it make how many he threw? Why does it matter in the 11th and 12th round if Manny threw no more than 41 punches if all 42 landed? What I'm asking is how anyone can give credit to a punch that was thrown and not landed? If this same kind of idiocy was applied to other sports, scoring in baseball would be determined not by how many times the batter hit the ball but how many times he swung at it.

Should we devise a new scoring method for football based not on touchdown and field goals but how many plays a team runs? I'm not suggesting that the kind of scoring Mazique advocates was the one adopted by the scorers in Vegas last week; I think he is woefully misguided, and I think the men who judged the Pacquiao-Bradley fight were as straight as Does Pacquiao know he's allowed to throw a punch?

Buying this fight may not have been such a bright idea. I can't believe y'all paid for PAC vs. I love boxing as much as anybody but naw The fight came alive in the fourth round. Pacquiao was more aggressive and began finding a comfort zone. In turn, Bradley came out of his shell, and the two exchanged glancing blows.

While Pac-Man was stronger in the fourth, Bradley landed a right just before the bell, which served as a warning sign to his opponent. The Miami Herald 's Ethan J. Skolnick thought Saturday provided more excitement than Pacquiao's last bout:.

Bradley enjoyed a successful spell in the fifth round, landing a few combinations, but he was unable to do much damage to his opponent. That quickly became the story of the fight as Bradley's deliberate style worked against him. Pacquiao then registered a knockdown in the seventh, blunting Bradley's momentum in an otherwise encouraging round.

Bradley wasn't hurt on the knockdown. More like stunned.
