American junk

Returning to attend to his constituents who suffered from the calamity that hit their locality, representative Manny Pacquiao distributed goods out of his goodness. He shared his earnings out of the controversial fight with an American who knew he never won the fight but took the belt as booty. The victory was clearly ill-gotten as seen by boxing experts, sports analysts and even ordinary boxing fans and spectators. There is no way the American pretender could win the fight and wear the championship belt undeservedly by virtue of a anomalous verdict given him by blind American boxing judges. The fight was under control by the Filipino ring icon and his opponent failed miserably to overcome the power of the true-blooded pound for pound king of the world.

Fuming over the anomalous verdict, boxing promoter Bob Arum of top rank promotions protested the split decision and even called for a probe on the judges whose decision mesmerizes even the ordinary boxing fans and observers. The scores issued by the seemingly blind judges who sided with their hometown American pretender who could not pull the surprise he promised to his countrymen and boxing fans around the globe. The American pretender remained frustrated as he miserably failed to put the Filipino ring icon out as he flamboyantly declared before the fight. Bradley practically ate the very words he vomited wherein he predicted a convincing win via the short distance.

Bradley’s utter failure in the ring was redeemed embarrassingly by blind judges who never saw the fight the way it went, giving scores that are never supported by the statistics and the videos that show the fight diametrically opposed to the real fight that unfolded before the eyes of millions of boxing fans around the world. Certainly, we could count by the fingers the rounds where the American pretender made a showing, albeit in a lackluster manner as he failed to even just hurt the Filipino ring icon, his punches mostly landing on the defensive arms that shielded his face and body.

On the contrary, it was the American pretender by the name of the humbug Timothy Bradley. It is very ironic looking at the favored American pretender returning to the ring on a wheelchair after the castigation he absorbed from the true winner of the fight, Filipino ring icon Manny Pacquiao. While there was some level of standard etched in the subconscious mind of boxing fans vis-à-vis the speed and power of Manny Pacquiao, which to some observers appear to have diminished, the fact remains that Bradley was no match even to the present Manny Pacquiao.

Over the deafening uproar concerning the anomalous verdict, the World Boxing Organization which sanctioned the fight had acted on the protest raised by Bob Arum by ordering a rescoring on the controversial fight by a select panel of five judges who remain credible and respected as boxing judges. Unfortunately, the boxing body declared that the rescoring will not in any way cause a reversal of the anomalous verdict that robbed the Filipino right icon of his belt. Even if the honor as the true winner of that fight remains intact with Manny Pacquiao, the rescoring is nothing but a stupid show worthy as another American junk.
