pac vs bradley decision should seal this in every reasonable person's eyes

boxing has gone the way of the wwe
 
wtf, this is why sports with judges, suck for the most part

they should make these guys fight until only 1 guy is standing. when you have judges this bad,it ruins everything
 
^^ Big true.

MMA is king now and the fastest growing sport in the world..

Dana White is a mastermind marketer and promoter- love or hate him- the dude put boxing out of business.'

Boxing also took a rapid decline after Tyson went Tyson and it was Game Over from there.
 
yes

its so shady


bb judging is much more accurate than boxing

the worst officiating of any major sport in the world
 
They stole it from Pac, probably for his comments about homosexuality. That's why MMA is the shit!! Beat the guy into submission no stupid idiotic judges.
 
^ Those comments killed him!

He was getting a little to big-headed through the last few years as well...
 
i wish i understood the technical aspects of bjj,etc

id enjoy mma a lot more if i did
 
^ Become a student somewhere with a good crew. I studied Gracie JJ for a few years, the cardio and technique is awesome. I wrestled for 14 years so it was really cool to mix BJJ and wrestling. I'm not that good a striking though..
 
id have to think bjj would hinder my goal of becoming 230 though??
 
Have any of you realized that this 2 fighters have the same promoter? It seems a rematch will be in place which will give both fighters another phat pay check.
 
Manny was robbed!

He will get another phat pay check on the rematch, I think you are misinterpreting what robbed truly is :coffee:

U hit the nail on the head bro!!

^^Bingo! Everyone needs to slow down and look at the big picture here. Yes boxing isn't what it use to be, but it's not all the fighters fault, you have to blame promoters just as much if not more. People always say mma is taking over, which really isn't entirely true. Yes mma is a growing sport, but lets be real, it's the ufc that really is pushing mma main stream. Without ufc, mma wouldn't be as popular as it is. As everyone knows the ufc is its own entity, and they can sign who ever they want, and then make the fights they want. So that gives you great fights, with top fighters fighting other top fighters, but it also gives you name guys who stick around too long cause the ufc continues to put them in the cage. So it's good and bad. The difference with boxing is all the different promotors unwilling to work with each other to make mega fights ala pac/mayweather. The pac/bradley decision represents what boxing nowadays really represents, and thats promotors making as much money as possible. This is why pac/mayweather will never fight. Don't worry about who's ducking who, the problem is neither promoter is willing to take less then the other and 50/50 for some reason isn't acceptable. So with that, one of two things is going to happen here. Both fighters are with top rank, which is how boxing is, fighters under the same promoter fight each other which keeps the money all in house. So with this decision top rank stands to make a shit load of money. Now for the common boxing fan Tim Bradley wasn't a name fighter but now everyone will want to see a rematch, which will generate way more money then this first fight. Or what I really think will happen, to me mayweather doesn't want any part of pac, so that keeps top rank from making any money off him, but I bet he comes out of jail barking bradleys name. So it'll be a win win for everyone envolved. Mayweather wont have to fight pac cause he'll be fighting the man who "beat" pac, and top rank has now made a name of tim bradley and can cash in on a mayweather fight. Pretty easy to figure out if you know the ends and outs of boxing
 
Nothing is legit anymore, didn't you guys get that memo.

As far as boxing goes, this thing about leaving it up to the judges transpired in what 88, when they went from 15 to 12 rds. Leaving entirely too many matches to be decided by judges.

What boxing desperately needs is a commision, every sport has one, even golf (PGA) and bowling (PBA). 2012, why doesn't boxing have one?

Yes, cause the promoters don't want one!
 
Lol, the only getting robbed is the paying audience. Again just another sport gone to shit because of the almighty dolla dolla bill.
 
I have been a fan of boxing since i was a kid, but the sport has been getting horriable over the last few years! I have continued to stand by it, thinking it would improve. Im done with it after watching Pac get robbed!! MMA is the sport now, im afraid boxing is done(to much shady stuff happening)....
 
going back to 15 rds,i agree

15 rd fight drastically increaees odds of tko or ko
 
Vegas is a joke... they always screw up decisions... but I agree boxing has become stale... MMA all the way now.
 
Wasn't one of the judges a broad, seriously she belongs back in the kitchen
