If it didn't cost an arm and a leg to view it I would have an opinion

I watched the fight at my Moms today:

Bradley is definitely at his prime as a young fighter, strong endurance and fierce punches.

Pacquiao on the other hand is a veteran fighter who many underestimate. He can take a heavy punch to the face and strike back with quick combos. A fierce left hook most fighters he fought tend to forget about. He's well trained and focused, he showed a lot of thought in the match, whereas Bradley went for strikes and attempting to use his reach advantage for a quick knock out.

Haven't watched Bradley fight much, but they both had a good fight, Pacquiao is just a veteran and understands the game a bit longer. When he first came on the scene, he walloped other fighters to the level where the main event was over before round 4. Now he does the longer fight and knows how to wear his opponents down. That's exactly what he did to Bradley, let him spend his energy early, and slowly give him quick face jabs. By the 7th round Pacquiao ran the fight, Bradley would get few punches in, but the level of physical fatigue Bradley felt was much more obvious than Pacquiao.

Definitely a fight worth watching, definitely not one sided at all, just the veteran player pulled out with control ;)
