Well, Of Course There’s Already A Manny Pacquiao-Timothy Bradley Taiwanese Animation Video


Whether you’re a fan of Timothy Bradley, Manny Pacquiao, Floyd Mayweather Jr., or whoever, you’ve probably heard about the controversial decision from the Pacquiao-Bradley bout this weekend. The controversy was only elevated when Bradley’s twitter was discovered to have posted a rematch poster…two weeks before the fight.

It’s been an interesting 48 hours since Bradley won the Welterweight Championship from the Thrilla in Manila. Here are some other interesting opinions about Saturday night’s fight.

While Floyd Mayweather Jr. was in jail, and said he wasn’t going to catch the fight, his father, Floyd Sr., not only tuned in, but had an opinion. And Floyd Sr. not only thought Pac-Man won the fight, but also had some advice for the judges.

“Whoever these judges was, they need to find a new job,” said Floyd Sr.

Bob Arum, Manny Pacquiao’s promoter, is already refusing to set up the rematch that Bradley proposed (a little early) and continues to propose. In fact, Arum was convinced the belt may still belong to Pacquiao.

“I want to investigate whether there was any undue influence, whether the [Nevada Athletic Commission] gave any particular instruction and how they came to this conclusion,” said Arum, who at the post-fight news conference was adamant the result was a mistake but not the result of any chicanery. “But the whole sport is in an uproar. People are going crazy.”

In Ireland, the largest telephone betting service, Paddy Power, issued refunds on all Pacquiao bets that were placed. The reason? In the site’s words:

Last night in Las Vegas the brilliant Filipino Manny Pacquiao lost his WBO welterweight belt to Timothy Bradley in a controversial split-decision defeat. With that Paddy Power has rolled out one of our famous Justice Payouts. If you had placed a bet on Manny to win in a pre-fight outright or on points, that money is now back in your account. We Hear You!

And finally, in the spirit of sports, we bring you this Taiwanese animation recap of the fight, from the always-prolific NMA.
