I've only seen highlights of the fight but if... Pacquiao landed 253 of 751 punches, a connect rate of 34 percent. Bradley landed 159 of 839, a connect rate of just 19 percent. On top of that, Pacquiao seemed to land the more powerful shots. http://sports.yahoo.com/news/boxing--tim...y-pacquiao.html...what the heck?

I cant stand Mayweather, he truly is one of the best Boxers Ive seen from a tacticianl stand point tho'... He might fight Manny know after he is longer with his former promotional team(GoldenBoy/Ellerbe/Team Money-May), he linked up with 50Cent and his promotional team(TMT(The Money Team)), who have Mayweather, Broner and a few other good prospects, we should start seeing the real power house fights back in boxing, 50 is a cold calculating business man I'll give him that, so we should get these star studded cards soon(throwbacks to the 80's-early 90's)... I mean HBO/ShowTime havent released any upcoming fights after the Alvarez.vs.Chavez JR fight in October, Manny and Floyd always fight in November, and I think as a result of the new 50cent promotional team and Floyds release from prison has everything to do with it, I'll have more info on this soon as Im a regular on every boxing Forum and Site, non stop..

Just another black eye on the sport(no pun intended)of boxing, just insane how Pac can land at a rate of 34% and Bradley at 19%(as you said) and he(Bradley) gets the win, not sure what the judges were looking at, 2 of those judges have been suspended by the top boxing committees, just insane...

I'm a boxer my-self currently, I talked about Wlad Klitschko with my trainer, he stated that he has a good body for fights and as well thinks very much in the ring what he does. For Klitschko in the ring it is very good as he gets his victory most of the times, but for us as the viewers the fight looks boring.
If you want a good boxing match, I suggest watching Haye vs. Chisora. Because it was too damn mad there. Yeah unfortunately the Klitschko's are tedious to watch, I don't even watch HW division now, its sucked since Lennox Lewis retired. My favorite boxer now is Cotto, love his style and he's always entertaining!

Jesus Christ Hatton comes back next week, if ever there was a comeback destined to fail! The guy is about 100 in ring years! you got that right! all joking aside, i'm not really looking forward to seeing him splattered on the canvas again!  that K.O. against manny was brutal, and if i remember right, it took him a few minutes to even be able to be lifted onto his stool! not sure if this comeback is even the traditional boxing sob story(needs money ect!), as even with his huge coke habit, can you really spend millions on it? seems more like an addiction to just compete, which can be even more dangerous! if he's serious, at the very least i hope they move him along slowly and don't put him in with a killer too soon as the guy has a family for fucks sake 
It's either blue cheese with wings or go fuck yer mudda!

Good fight tomorrow night.
I'm expecting Broner to stop DeMarco, I think he's the next big thing.

I was a massive Hatton fan but the glory days are gone for sure and i was a massive Freddie Flintoff fan as a cricketer. The boxing thing with him is a massive gimmick!! I remember he said on a league of their own the WWE wanted to sign him as a wrestler . That will probably be his next project. These people just cannot stay away from the limelight can they?? Very sad!!
I would rather die on my feet than live on my knees!
