When Timothy Bradley was awarded a controversial decision over Manny Pacquiao at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas Saturday night it set up an immediate rematch between the two fighters and further pushed back a possible mega fight between Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Pacquiao.
The result could also affect the amount of money both Mayweather and Pacquiao could possibly make facing each other given the fact that part of the appeal of that fight is that Mayweather is undefeated and Pacquiao had not lost in seven years. With the loss to Bradley, some fans might not consider Pacquiao the No. 2 fighter in the world anymore.
One interested observer who did not like the outcome of the fight is Mayweather's close friend 50 Cent. Fif took to Twitter on Sunday to voice his displeasure with the result and upcoming rematch.
"Man boxing is a mess right now what ever you do. Do not watch the rematch its fixed. both fighters are with the same promoters There just trying to get paid twice," 50 wrote. "At least you know floyd fight to win Pacman won they just gave the win to there other fighter to make the rematch DAMN. They don't want to make the floyd fight happen so there pulling this sh*t on us wow. Pacman lol they R making a fool out of U. Look at the bright side. rematch, make them some more money. LMAO."
Will the interest level be the same from fans if Mayweather Jr. fights Pacquiao?

MANILA, Philippines – Even one of the staunchest critics of Manny Pacquiao thought the Filipino boxing hero won the fight against Timothy Bradley Jr.
Floyd Mayweather Sr. told ESPN Saturday (Sunday in Manila) that to him Pacquiao was “well in control” of the fight.
“I thought Tim Bradley put up one helluva fight. But I didn’t think he won the fight,” he said.
Mayweather Sr. said he did not score the fight but he knew Pacquiao won.
“I felt he (Pacquiao) won the fight. I felt like there was a gap, where you could see who was winning,” he said.
In a fight Pacquiao seemed to have in hand, two judges decided otherwise, giving Bradley a split decision Saturday night and ending the Filipino fighter’s remarkable seven-year unbeaten run.
Promoter Bob Arum fumed, the crowd at the MGM Grand arena booed, and Pacquiao seemed stunned when the decision was announced. Arum said there would be a November rematch, though he blasted the way the decision went down.
“I’ve never been as ashamed of the sport of boxing as I am tonight,” said Arum, who handles both fighters.
Bradley came on strong in the later rounds, winning five of the last six rounds on two scorecards and four on the third. He won 115-113 on two scorecards, while losing on the third by the same margin. The Associated Press had Pacquiao winning 117-111.
“I did my best,” Pacquiao said. “I guess my best wasn’t good enough.”
Pacquiao tried to turn the fight into a brawl, using his power to hurt Bradley in the early rounds. But Bradley changed tactics in the middle rounds and used his boxing skills to win enough rounds to take the narrow decision for the welterweight title.
It ended a 15-fight winning streak by Pacquiao dating to 2005 that turned him into a boxing superstar and made him a national hero in the Philippines.
“I thought I won the fight,” Bradley said. “I didn’t think he was as good as everyone says he was. I didn’t feel his power.”
Ringside punching statistics showed Pacquiao landing 253 punches to 159 for Bradley, who vowed before the fight to take the 147-pound title from Pacquiao. The Compubox statistics showed Pacquiao landing more punches in 10 of the 12 rounds.
Bradley was so confident that he had oversized tickets printed up for a Nov. 10 rematch that will now likely happen.
Bradley seemed hurt in the fourth and fifth rounds, but Pacquiao had trouble landing big punches after that. Still, he seemed in control of the fight everywhere but on the judge’s scorecards.
“Can you believe that? Unbelievable,” Arum said. “I went over to Bradley before the decision and he said, `I tried hard but I couldn’t beat the guy.’”
Bradley said he hurt his ankle in the second round, and that trainer Joel Diaz said he could either quit or try to take the fight to Pacquiao.
“I got my second wind in the sixth round,” Bradley said. “I worked the angles, sticking and moving.”
Pacquiao said he studied Bradley on tape before the fight and wasn’t surprised by anything he did. He said he thought he was in control of the fight and was shocked when the decision went against him.
“He never hurt me with his punches, most of them landed on my arms,” Pacquiao said.
Pacquiao tried to brawl with Bradley and seemed to hurt him in both the fourth and fifth rounds. But Bradley started moving and counter punching, though he never seemed to land any shots that hurt Pacquiao.
Pacquiao had vowed to look impressive against Bradley after struggling in his last outing with Juan Manuel Marquez, a fight many thought he lost. And he did early, landing good long left hands while beating Bradley to the punch on most exchanges.
“He hurt me a couple of times with his left,” Bradley said. “He’s a beast.”
Trainer Freddie Roach told Pacquiao after the 10th round that he had control of the fight, and urged him to fight hard the final two rounds.
“You have six minutes to go, son,” Roach said. “It’s your fight.”
But it wasn’t Pacquiao’s fight, with Bradley getting credit for winning some of the close middle and later rounds. After the 11th round Bradley went back to his corner and trainer Joel Diaz told him he needed to win the final round.
“I listened to my corner,” Bradley said. “I got to give him a rematch now.”
Arum said there will be one on Nov. 10, though he thought Pacquiao won easily, as did most writers at ringside.
“I’ll make a lot of money off the rematch, but this was outrageous,” Arum said.
It was the biggest fight of Bradley’s career and it came with a minimum $5 million payday. The rematch will be even richer, though Pacquiao’s loss could damage any plans for a fight with Floyd Mayweather Jr.
Mayweather did not see the fight because he is serving a sentence on a domestic abuse charge at a jail a few miles from the MGM Grand. With a report from Tim Dahlberg, AP Boxing Writer.

In a stunning decision, unbeaten Timothy Bradley (29-0) won a split-decision victory over eight-time world champion Manny Pacquiao (54-4-2) at the MGM Grand Gardens Arena.
Two judges scored the WBO welterweight title fight 115-113 for Bradley, who appeared to be trailing all night. The third judge gave Pacquiao a 115-113edge.
The results were loudly jeered by a near-capacity crowd in the arena, many of whom stood stunned at their seats.
Here is a round-by-round recap of the fight (scoring is unofficial).
Round 1: Referee Robert Byrd completes his final instructions and the fight is underway. At the bell both fighters charge to the center of the ring. Bradley throws the first punch but misses. Pacquiao throws a wild combination then, after Bradley connects, Pacquiao lands a pair of punches. Bradley might be throwing fewer punches but he’s landing more. With 15 seconds left, Pacquiao catches Bradley a couple of times but Bradley wins the round, 10-9.
Round 2: Bradley continues as the aggressor but 30 seconds into the round the patient Pacquiao lands a couple of shots. At the minute mark Bradley catches him in the middle of the ring and lands some punches of his own. With 1:12 left Bradley backs Pacquiao against the ropes and gets off three shots. Then after the champ escapes, Bradley chases him down and lands a couple of more. Pacquiao again answers in the final 30 seconds but Pacquiao looks to be fighting defensively. Pacquiao wins the round, 10-9. Fight is even, 19-19.
Round 3: Bradley lands a hard right to the midsection to start the round, then the two fighters clinch. Bradley is probing with the left, keeping the left cocked and loaded. Pacquiao is bobbing and weaving, looking for an opening. With 90 seconds left he finds it and gets off the kind of lightning-fast shot Bradley fears. That one stung the challenger. Now Pacquiao is moving forward. Pacquiao just misses on a wicked right hook but he pins Bradley against the ropes momentarily. Bradley looks stunned in the final seconds. Pacquiao wins the round, 10-9. Pacquiao leads the fight 29-28.
Round 4: The most action in the fight so far with both men mixing it up in the center of the ring. But again Pacquiao is getting the best of it. Bradley is cautioned for a low blow, then twice clinches, forcing Byrd to step in to separate the fighters. Bradley is in trouble with 40 seconds to go in the round, and Pacquiao chases him around the ring. The challenger is all but defenseless, eventually grabbing the champion to stop the assault. Bradley appears close to going down a couple of times in the final 30 seconds. Pacquiao wins the round, 10-9. Pacquiao leads the fight 39-37.
Round 5: Bradley has become much less aggressive and now it’s Pacquiao who charges forward, slapping his gloves together. Pacquiao’s confidence is growing with each passing second, it seems. Bradley fakes a couple of punches, then begins backing up again. Pacquiao is trying to cut the ring off. Bradley lands a couple of lefts but they had little effect. With 35 seconds left Pacquiao gets off a combination, missing the first punch but landing hard with the second and Bradley looks to be in trouble again. Pacquiao is all over him as the bell sounds. Pacquiao wins the round, 10-9, Pacquiao leads the fight, 49-46.
Round 6: Bradley lands a soft left but it doesn’t hurt Pacquiao, whose speed is overwhelming the challenger. Bradley flinches every time Pacquiao so much as feigns a punch. Pacquiao gets off a good left counterpunch. Then another straight left with 45 seconds left. Bradley is stuck in a corner, holding his gloves in front of his face as Pacquiao pounds at his body. Five, six, seven unanswered blows. This one is getting very one-sided. Pacquiao wins the round, 10-9. Pacquiao leads the fight, 59-55.
Round 7: It took Pacquiao most of the first two rounds to get a feel for Bradley but the champion is unstoppable now. Even on the rare occasions when Bradley gets off a good punch Pacquiao answers with two of his own. And while Bradley’s punches appear to have little effect, Pacquiao’s apear to be taking a toll. With 70 seconds left in the round Pacquiao just misses with a devastating left. But even when that landed him against the ropes, he escapes easily. Pacquiao wins the round, 10-9., and leads the fight 69-64.
Round 8: Early in the round Pacquiao hops up and down likes he’s riding a bike, apparently trying to get Bradley to come after him. A minute in Bradley appears to get caught in the eye by Pacquiao’s thumb and Byrd momentarily pauses the fight. Then it resumes and Bradley is once again in trouble. Bradley is just tapping at the champion –- and for good reason because whenever he winds up he leaves himself wide open to Pacquiao’s vicious counterattack. Pacquiao again has him backing up at the bell. Pacquiao wins the round, 10-9. Pacquiao leads the fight, 79-73.
Round 9: Pacquiao again blesses himself before the start of the round but perhaps it’s Bradley who should be praying. Pacquiao, patient as always, finds Bradley leaning forward and drives him into the ropes with a couple of shots. Then halfway through the round, Bradley bends at the waist to avoid one punch, Pacquiao nails him with a pair of uppercuts. Bradley gets off a right to the head but he continues to leave himself open. Bradley's punches have too much sweep and not enough power -– a recipe for disaster against someone with Pacquiao’s speed. Pacquiao wins the round, 10-9. Pacquiao leads the fight, 89-82.
Round 10: Bradley’s goal now appears to be just to survive. With 12 knockouts in 28 fights, he doesn’t have the punching power to kncck out Pacquiao now. And as he backs around the ring he seems almost uninterested in rejoining the fight. Just inside two minutes in, however, he lands a couple of punches. And halfway into the round, while Pacquiao clinches, he gets off a shot to Pacquiao’s head. With the score where it is, he needs to be way more aggressive. Bradley wins a close round, 10-9. Pacquiao leads the fight, 98-92.
Round 11: Bradley is showing some fight, first slipping a couple of punches and then backing Pacquiao against the ropes. But he doesn’t make much of the chance. Pacquiao keeps bouncing on the balls of his feet, as if to show Bradley he’s not tired. The crowd, quiet for most of the fight, begins to shout Bradley’s name. Pacquiao shuts that down with a flurry of punches that are mostly for show. For one of the few times in the fight Pacquiao appears to be flailing until he gets Bradley against a turnbuckle again. Pacquiao wins the round, 10-9. Pacquiao leads the right, 108-101.
Round 12: The fighters touch gloves to start the round. Bradley needs a knockout but he’s not showing sufficient urgency. A combination a minute into the round misses on both ends. Pacquiao isn’t sitting on his lead, though. Like a true champion he continues to fight moving forward. He has given up on the idea of a knockout, though. Bradley hits him in the jaw early in the final minute, and that appears to wake Pacquiao up. The round ends with both fighters throwing wild punches. Bradley wins the round, 10-9. Pacquiao should win the fight, 117-111. But now it’s up to the judges.
Official scoring: In a stunning decision, unbeaten Timothy Bradley won a split-decision victory over eight-time world champion Manny Pacquiao at the MGM Grand Gardens Arena. Two judges scored the fight 115-113 for Bradley, who appeared to be trailing all night. The third judge gave Pacquiao a 115-113 edge. The results were loudly jeered by a near-capacity crowd in the arena, many of whom stood stunned at their seats.
