Pac had a lot of trouble catching Bradley.

Bad title for that video, Bradley didn't win but he did clearly give Manny a lot of problems, and think about how easily other guys have been able to catch him. He's not a great defensive fighter or counter puncher, fighting him and fighting Floyd are worlds apart.
Yeah I don't think Bradley won the fight, but the fight was a lot more competitive than people think because the announcers were giving credit to Pac for landing shots that were caught or flew over Bradley's head.

Different make up and fighter from Tim but Algieri appeared to have come with movement and preservation on the mind. Seems Manny landed a few times there. In fairness Manny clearly beat Bradley not once, but twice. I don't think he can match Floyds hand speed regardless of what Cotto says, but I think Pacs accuracy will cause him more than a few problems.

Floyd has been hit loads of times, Cotto bloodied his nose but Floyd has probably been hurt twice in 10 fights and I am not included maidana biting his pinky through the glove.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

That video should have been titled - Proof commentators sometimes call punches that miss.
Some nerd makes a totally biased video that shows a dozen examples of the HBO comms calling shots that didn't land exactly as they described.
Overall Pac threw 751 punches. Pathetic.

I don't agree with the guy's conclusion (that Bradley won the fight), but he does have a point in that announcers can often influence and skew the opinions of those watching a fight . That's something Lampley is known to do - he's done it a lot with De La Hoya and he's done it a lot with Pac.
Just wanted to show that Pac did indeed have a lot of trouble hitting Bradley flush.

If you remember the Cotto/Mayweather fight, the shots Cotto landed were not effectively clean punches. They were grazing punches as either Floyd got out of the way, slipped a few of them or just did not land flush enough.
If Cotto had caught Floyd cleanly with at least two of those punches within the same round, we would have been having a separate discussion.
There is a difference between hitting someone and then decking them clean as a whistle.
Bigger man George, bigger punch!

There is absolutely no doubt Pacquiao won that fight but the scorecards are less of an embarrassment than how HBOs crew push their agenda no matter what is actually happening. Watching that fight it's embarrassing for Max, embarrassing for Lederman(no surprise) and Lampley is simply pathetic(no surprise)
Yeah it's sad because I'm a big fan of Lederman, who usually is very insightful and produces great score cards. But Lampley is a notorious nut hugger, he did that same shit with De La Hoya all the time, especially in the Whitaker fight. At one point DLH threw a 5 or 6 punch combination, missed every fucking punch, DLH even laughed out of embarrassment, and Lampley is screaming like DLH just knocked Pernell out.

That video - although ironically showing a fight where Manny was "robbed" - also highlights the reason why Manny has a great chance of winning if it goes the distance. His activity, output and bursts look impressive even if they aren't actually landing.
He only needs two judges to favour him.
Oscar, Maidana and ridiculously Canelo got a draw/win against Floyd. Judah and Castillo won 4/5 rounds by certain judges. Manny might only have to win four rounds to get the decision. You can bet your life the fans will be screaming "robbery" either way unless either gets slaughtered

It's funny that there are still people who think Floyd doesn't have a chin, or doesn't have heart. Shane hit him about as flush and as hard as you can hit a man, rocked him and had him doing the fish dance for a few seconds, and Floyd didn't bat an eye and took control.
