    bad decisions are a part of the sport. boxing isn't like baseball, or whatever other jackass games there are, because it cannot be statistically analyzed or resolved through use of instant replay. It happens to fast and means to much. And the beauty of it is, you can always win; down by 12 in the last round, you can hit the 13 run homer. Ask randall Bailey.
    And you can always go out there and take the decision away from the judges.

    I'm sorry..... but I've seen this time and time again. It's this complacent attitude that will forever prevent any real efforts to try and fix the problem. Saying "bad decisions are part of the sport" doesn't take away the bad taste in the mouths of most observers who were once again disgusted with the judging of a fight. Particularly a major fight.

    I'm not sure we need too much more bad decisions, this was a real eye-opener.
    Especially since it happened to Pacquiao this time around.
    I think just about everyone not signed with Top Rank has had it with Bob "I'M going to make a lot of money on the rematch" Arum, besides Pacquiao of course lol.
