Pacquiao vs. Bradley Decision: Judges' Scorecard and Round-by-Round Stats

If this was Manny Pacquiao's final boxing bout, he went out with a bang by defeating Timothy Bradley by unanimous decision in their rubber match Saturday night at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.

With the victory, Pacquiao moves to 58-6-2 while avenging himself twice after losing in June 2012.

The official scores from the match all favored the Filipino, 116-110, per Kevin Iole of Yahoo Sports:

Chris Maathuis of KLAS 8 in Las Vegas provided this snapshot of the official scorecard:

Here's how the scoring looked from the point of view of Bryan Graham of the Guardian:

Boxer	Round 1	Round 2	Round 3	Round 4	Round 5	Round 6
Boxer	Round 7	Round 8	Round 9	Round 10	Round 11	Round 12
Pacquiao	9	9	10	10	10	10
Bradley	10	10	9	9	9	9
Pacquiao	10	9	10	10	10	9
Bradley	8	10	8	9	9	10

This fight started out slow, which worked out in Bradley's favor through the first two rounds. Bradley connected with more jabs to the body and did not seem sluggish coming out of the gate. Pacquiao, however, took control by the third round and was more crisp in his punches than earlier.

The seventh round was the key. Pacquiao was credited with a knockdown toward the end of the round, and then followed that up with another knockdown in the ninth to widen the gap from Bradley.

This was something out of the ordinary compared to the first two fights, per ESPN Stats & Info:

When Pacquiao began to gain control of the fight, he went to his left hand and continued to put more force in his shots. The HBO broadcast noted Pacquiao landed 46 percent of his power punches (92-of-201), compared to Bradley's 40 percent.

Compubox provided a shot of the total punches thrown, which shows a huge advantage in favor of Pacquiao:

In terms of excitement value and gauging interest from the crowd, this was one of the better boxing bouts in recent memory. Pacquiao let the fight come to him. Once he got comfortable, he picked his spots and found many openings with his left hand. 

That trademark left hand has been Pacquiao's calling card for years, and if those are the last punches he'll ever throw in a boxing ring, going out a winner is a good way to end the career of one of the best boxers of this generation.

Post-fight Reaction

Pacquiao said after the fight he wanted to use his power as much as he could.

"I was looking for a knockout in every round," Pacquiao said, per Dan Rafael of ESPN.com. "He's a very tough fighter and a very good counter-puncher. Bradley is a good boxer, a great fighter and a good man. It was not easy tonight, [but] my right shoulder was fine. It gave me no problems."

And when Pacquiao connected on those hard shots, Bradley felt them.

"Manny was very strong in there. Very heavy punches. He was also very patient," Bradley said, per Rafael. "I wasn't professional enough to stay patient myself, and I walked into shots."

With this being the rubber match, Pacquiao said this was the best of the three against Bradley.

"This was the best of the three fights I had with Timothy Bradley," Pacquiao said, per Rafael. "Great action, and it was very competitive. Teddy obviously made a difference because this was the best Timothy Bradley I have faced in the three fights."
