Pacquiao vs Bradley: The Uproar is Still Not Over
The fight between Manny Pacquiao and Timothy Bradley held on Saturday night in Vegas has instigated sparks of controversy. The uproar over the match was so huge that the effects are still not over.
The uproar started after the judges had declared the underdog Bradley as the winner while Pacquiap was in the lead for most of the time of the match. However, the judges were adamant in their decision that they had made the right choice.
Duane Ford, one of the judges, said that Pacquiaoís popularity was the only reason for this controversy. Bob Arum, the promoter, has especially faced the rage of the fans for supposedly rigging the outcome. However, he has denied that and started pushing for investigation to dismiss the allegation. He is determined to investigate whether there was any undue influence or particular instruction to fix the conclusion.
In fact, the controversy has gone to this level given to the fact that it was Pacquiaoís single loss in the last seven years.
