Filipino fight icon Manny Pacquiao regained the WBO world welterweight title after fashioning out a masterful unanimous decision victory on Sunday against Timothy Bradley.
Pacquiao won the fight, 116-112, 116-112, and 118-110. It was Pacquiao’s 56th career victory against five losses and two draws.
Bradley suffered his first loss in 32 career fights.
The win came as redemption for Pacquiao, who got back the title he lost to the previously-unbeaten American two years ago in a controversial decision.
Pacquiao left little doubt this time, consistently outgunning Bradley for most of the fight.
Bradley, known for his technical counterpunching, was left desperately trying to land a knockout shot — an overhand right hook — that never came.
Pacquiao, in contrast, showcased his full boxing arsenal, peppering Bradley’s defenses with five-, six-punch flurries. InterAksyon
