Don't think it's a complete waste of time if the unintended side effect would be to humiliate the judges whose incompetence leads to outright robberies. Hey, who knows, maybe it'll lead to these 80 yr olds retiring and passing the torch to more capable judges. I know, embarrassing them is wrong if the only reason for their error in judgement (according to the majority of those who watched the bout) is ineptness but enough is enough. Shame them if need be, it's not like they didn't deserve it. I mean, correct me if I'm wrong but how can Ford even think Tim was "schooling" Pac in that fight, it beggars belief.
... So what are your thoughts in the video that Violent Demise put up?
MY thoughts?
I thought it was a very well edited video which accomplished its purpose, demonstrating that Jim Lampley and Harold Letterman are indeed extremely lousy at calling fights, hardly news to longtime boxing fans. Although cleverly put together, it is still just a video, showing selected portions of the fight, with the goal of driving home a point. Does it prove Bradley won the fight? No.

It appears that Pacquiao indeed could not have won 10 rounds.
He could just have won 8. ;D

Boxing reform act lacks punch, but it's worth a shot - News | FOX Sports on MSN
This may not amount to much, as the writer says. But if it weren't for the controversy stirred up by the Pac-Bradley decision, would this even be occurring and in the news? I don't think anyone can argue that doing nothing is preferable to doing something, even if it doesn't have the intended effect in the end.

Showed us something we knew all along. Lampley is biased in favor of the house fighter specially Pacquiao. Nothing new to that. Also, it showed us how Tim's face is not as susceptible to getting cuts/bruises compared to JMM and Mosley. The fight I saw had Brian Kenny and Mario Lopez as the broadcast team. And I still had Pac winning rounds 1 to 9, with 1 and 11 as swing rounds. Overall, nicely edited and informative video, showing us some of the 498 missed shots by Pac.
