Pacquiao Vs Bradley

[FlyByNights]

This should be a great fight.

Bradley is the first legitimate Pacquiao contender we have seen in a while. (28-0-0, 12 KOs)

12-round welterweight bout is scheduled for, June 9, 2012 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas,

Anyone know where and when to watch?

Found it. Channel 7 local TV. 8AM-12.

Astro Supersport 2 might have it as well even though it's not on their guide.

Watching it from home is probably the best way to go considering the time, and the way the weathers been behaving.

Also received a message for those headed to Bangkok for the weekend.

No Idea Gastro Pub on Soi 22 is will be showing it.

Nice people and good food.

Don't know where you are on the island OP but Coconut at Rawai Beach has a great sports TV setup.

Hopefully they will have it as well as Game 7 Boston-Miami NBA Eastern Conference Final.

Super sports Sunday morning on tap !

dam_n, I'll have to run my best time ever in the marathon to catch these 2 sporting events.

Bad timing!

it's nice to see some interest in boxing...and to see a real fight on Thai TV 7 for a change...

I'm kinda like a rolling stone GOM, have a couple places around town if you get my drift. Yeah I have seen Coconut at Rawai Beach, looks like a good setting. Maybe I'll check it out Sunday morning if in the area. It would be nice to find a place also showing NBA as well, not to many basketball fans around here from what I have seen.

OMG ! Saturday evening; Holland-Denmark ; later in the night Germany-Portugal ; in between practice for pole F1 in Canada. Sunday morning boxing, evening Spain-Italy, F1 main race, and another Euro match ( can't think of who).

After euro 2012 there will be the Tour de France, Wimbledon AND the Olympics !!

No wonder I cannot get my wife pregnant

Also tomorrow: Game 7 NBA Eastern finals, Final French Open, Belmont Stakes (OK the favorite is scratched, but still.........), as well as Pacman, and don't forget the Stanley club Finals: Kings vs Devils. And Sharapova should be starting in an hour I believe for the womens Final French Open. Yes, it is a great sports weekend.

And most important (to keep the thread from being axed) in Phuket : The Laguna Marathon to start it all off at 4:30 AM tomorrow!

I don't see the fight on Thai TV 7, just some retarded Hollywood movie with Jon Voight

[fiddlehead]

They just said that Pacman is watching the basketball game in the locker room and is not ready.

Bradley is ready to enter the ring.

Amazing.

Pacman is a Celtics fan, bless his heart...hopefully we'll get some payback...I found it on live streaming, but still nothing on Thai TV7

[FlyByNights]

I give it to Pacquiao, KO in the 9th.

[grumpyoldman]

are you guys blacked out on the Thai TV? Where is it?

[grumpyoldman]

Super ugly example of match fixing Vegas................

Bettors had Pacquiao and the distance, Vegas loses huge money, instead, they get the fix in, Vegas breaks even.

Unbelievable.

[FlyByNights]

Bradley won, split decision.

I the kid maintained his composure throughout the fight, though I did feel Pac came out strong in the first couple of rounds.

As predicted by some Bradley won.

Good fight, had slight blackout in the 1st, but then it came back.

Edit : I thought Bradley deserved it at first, but once I saw GOM reply. it just reminded me how bad the guys in Vegas have become....

Do you honesty think Pacquiao is now to the point of selling himself out like this ?

I gave the last three to Bradley so can see where you are coming from, GOM.

What dreadful coverage by Thai TV, taking the extra advertising buck to miss the first few seconds of every round. No dual language on the cable so also had to endure the Thai commentary. But at least it was free to air, unlike in most countries.

yeah your right, such as shame though to think it's gotten so bad with these guys in Vegas.

Economy is super bad there, a number of casinos have had to close, sad.

Manny didn't look too disturbed after, so have to think it was preplanned for the rematch money for all involved.

Manny has been spending too much time on Bible study. Looks as though he lost a step. 60 professional bouts, endless questions about blood doping. His time may be over.

The fight I watched, Bradley indeed won a decision.

Glad to see this comment as I thought I might be the only person, apart from two of the judges, who saw it that way. It helps not being subjected to a biased commentary (I had the Thai on and as I don't speak the language was able to watch without listening).

The commentary wasn't in Thai. The decision was an absolute abomination; another disgrace for boxing. I am an atheist, but blaming 'the loss' on Pacquio's bible study is completely ludicrous.

[fearless1]

You guys are nuts. I had the fight 11 rounds to Pacman, 1 round even. What the heck were you watching? I didn't see Bradley land 1 decent punch the whole fight.
