When I heard Pac lost, I was taken aback! So I had to watch and analyze as soon as I was able.
1st
Pac defensive, TB aggressive but no lands. Pac ends well.
Winner: Pac, although can make a case for TB
2nd
A little more even throughout with aggression but Pac landed more.
Winner: Pac
3rd
Whoa! Pac clearly dominated with aggression and lands. TB close in the end but not enough.
Winner: Pac
4th
Pac clearly won on all counts. TB got a few but not enough.
Winner: Pac
5th
Pac once again clearly won. TB looked hurt.
Winner: Pac
6th
Pac way more aggressive but can tell both getting tired.
Winner: Pac
7th
Both slower and TB hurt.
Winner: Pac
8th
Slow round for both, definitely tired now. Pac seems to be having fun whileTB frustrated and stumped. Didn't attack!
Winner: Pac
9th
Pac listened to his coach - uppercuts! A little more action finally! Second wind!
Winner: Pac
10th
Wow! A little action from TB finally! But Pac not hurt. Neither are taking advantage of shots.
Winner: Pac, but can make a case for TB (saw replay of 4th - TB hurt his ankle while stepping)
11th
(Note: from previous fights and this one Pac keeps dropping his hands to fix his shorts, leans forward way so far that he's on one foot for a second, other hand doesn't guard well and sometimes drops, and from MMA standpoint, ducks too much)
Fairly even, good defense by TB. Pac still aggressive.
Winner: Pac
12th
Even, but Pac got it with his drive
Winner: Pac, but can make a case for TB
I don't know what the officials were looking at, but it definitely wasn't the fight in front of them. If I were being generous by giving Bradley 3 rounds where he showed a little spirit, Pac would still win. Just about everyone was confused and some even thought conspiracy. Pac was definitely disappointed, but he flowed with it. "I did my best, but I guess my best wasn't good enough," was the statement of the night. No, you were robbed, Pac, plain and simple. Too bad you can't really do anything about it.
