Manny Pacquiao vs. Timothy Bradley WBO Pac-Man Won the Fight after Review


Manny Pacquiao clearly did enough to defeat Timothy Bradley on June 9th at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.

The review was ordered by WBO President Francisco "Paco" Valcarcel in the wake of the intense media and public criticism of the scoring. The panel of judges, whose names were not released, scored the fight for Pacquiao by scores of 118-110, 117-111, 117-111, 116-112 and 115-113.

Valcarcel went further in comments to Fox News on Thursday.

“I respect the scoring of the officials,” Valcarcel told Fox News via phone. "But the WBO is sure that Pacquiao won the fight. The only solution for this is to order a rematch. Top Rank has both fighters so we’ve got arrange to work with both parties and work on a rematch.”

Pacquiao said he will not accept the WBO welterweight crown from Bradley if the American gives it back to him after the five WBO judges who re-scored the controversial fight had the Filipino winning by a mile.
