We were all excited for the fight. Pacquiao - Bradley, baby! We didn't have Sports channel ready on our cable TV but that didn't stop us from watching. We were expecting Manny to KO at 6th round but on our surprise it finished at 12. Pacquiao was planting punches as expected but Bradley I think dominated the last 2 rounds. Even with that, for me, for us, Manny could still have won. We were all shocked during announcement of the winner.
Boxer Manny Pacquiao lost to Timothy Bradley Saturday night in a shocking split decision, where most observers had Pacquiao winning the bout handily. HBO’s unofficial judge, Harold Lederman, scored it 119-109 for Pacquiao, awarding Bradley one round in the 12-round fight. (Forbes)
It was really shocking!

As Manny said, "Whatever happens, don't be discouraged about boxing," he said. "Next time."
