Anyone that isn't blind can see, boxing simply isn't the same anymore. Similar to the WWE where Vince MacMahon decides the outcome before his wrestlers enter the ring. Now in boxing the promoters and promotion companies decide who win before the boxers step into the ring. Latest example : Saturday night, when clear Manny Pacquiao should have won a decision over Tim Bradley Jr., however after 12 rounds of boxing the official ringside judge score cards looked like this : 115-13 for Pacquiao - 115-113 for Bradley - 115-113 for Bradley. Tim Bradley Jr. became new Welterweight champion. Both fighters are under Top Rank Promotions led by Bob Arum, Arum already announced November 10 as rematch date, after Bradley split decision win. Personal theory, the Pacman vs. Money Mayweather fight even before Saturday was never going to happen. Not because of the fighters, but more importantly because of the promoters of Oscar De La Hoya and Bob Arum, Golden Boy and Top Rank can not get on the same page to make the fight happen. Since their really isn't anyone out their left for PacMan to fight, let's do a controversial rematch. Problem is PacMan clearly won, just like in his last fight vs. Marquez many believed he clearly loss, however got the decision. The sport of boxing clearly is turning into soap opera during it's mega fights, the fans deserve better.
