The rounds where I had no trouble picking a winner were

3,4,5,6 Pac
10,11,12 Brad

The other 5 are close rounds man. I tend to favour Pac for 1,2,7 and Brad for 8 and 9.
I think no matter who you score it for it has to accepted that it was a close fight.

I really think Manny being the popular fighter and having the crowd and HBO on his side has skewed peoples perceptions of the fight. I was almost laughing at the commentary yesterday. Bradley would land 2-3 shots and there was literally no commentary. Manny would do nothing for 2 minutes and they would say Bradley didn't do very much. It was more than the guy doing nothing and he WAS getting through on occasion. It was like Twilight Zone commentary. HBO has been getting worse and worse.

Scores like 10-1 Manny are a farce and in no way reflect what was a very hard fight for Manny.

HBO stands for Horribly Biased Oldies. Lampley, Steward and Lederman are all absurd.
