Image: Pacquiao-Bradley and the decadent morality of the BoxingBy Reynaldo Sanchez: After the Pacquiao-Bradley fight verdict; that deprived Pacquiao of the WBO world title. Immediately, the digital media, the boxing fans and the public in general, raised his voices against the split decision into that the “Judges” in Las Vegas awarded Tim Bradley with the throne of 147 lb.

The images where Bob Arum who is the promoter of Pacquiao and Bradley; kisses and hug Tim Bradley. They contrast with the post fight declarations of the skillful promoter make about the end result of the fight. It seems that the fans forget of that famous phrase that he said to Marquez last November “This is a Business, Juan” and with this judgment, in our opinion he sealed an even controversial decision that we see last June 9th.

We can observe that the weak memory of the boxing fans, it seems that they have no resources to remember terrific verdicts even worse than those of last weekend. We want to remind to them that we have seen recent fights in which the verdict of the judges in Las Vegas and other cities, they left Campillo, Lara, and more recently to Abril. With the sensation of having been victims of machinery that nobody really knows who handles to his caprice and for his benefit.

Bob Arum recently said that we wouldn’t have rematch, until an investigation is not reached on what really happened there. If really our friend Arum has intentions of cleaning the boxing: what prevented him from doing the same when he listen the Marquez’s or Abril verdicts? The FBI or the Senate of USA must take it the control here, and when that happens, and goes over to the fund of the rottenness in which they have plunged the boxing, there we will start seeing with more clarity for what reason these gentlemen who are supposed are there to provide justice, often they show cards that give us the impression that they are saw other fights.

For these and other reasons, which now it tries to make Arum, looks like to very biases, and frankly very immoral. We ask: who finally get a lot of benefits from a direct rematch in this fight? We think that when the judges should be astonish, they will come with the justification from that in the revenge and with “Honorable Judges” we will see whom it is the best between Manny Pacquiao and Tim Bradley

We believe that it is necessary to realize an exhaustive investigation, and if it’s necessary the official verdict must be annulled and the WBO as Organizations of the title in dispute, declare after the review of a body of impartial judges, who really gained this fight. Then, already well directed the same does with the Campillo, Lara and April fights and others and surely, we will be in route of cleaning this sport of so many abuses.

Meanwhile doesn’t take these actions, probably in the event of the next Saturday, when Julio Cesar Chavez Jr (Arum fighter) will be in the ring, let’s run the risk that the “Judges” see another fight and no the one that is happening inside the ring. And also, in the press conference of this fight, already Bradley was announcing that we would have fight in November 10th, when he showed to the world an enormous ticket announcing the rematch.
