Intro:
Manny Pacquiao won a unanimous decision in his rematch with Timothy Bradley on Saturday (12 April), avenging his 2012 loss and claiming the WBO welterweight title.
Script:
SOUNDBITE (English): Timothy Bradley:
"Well, it was a very tough fight, Manny came out and did his thing, I did my best in there. I got injured in the first round, after the first round, I got injured. Injured my calf. I had to adjust my style, had to walk to him, that's why I got aggressive and I was trying to end it in one shot. I told you I came here looking for the knockout. I knew if the fight was close I wouldn't get another decision, so I was better off just trying to knock this guy out."
SOUNDBITE (English): Timothy Bradley:
"I couldn't find my distance and my balance because of my foot, but injuries happen, no excuses whatsoever. Manny is one of the best fighters in the world, I lost he was the better man tonight. All that means is I have to go back in the gym, and I have to get better. One defeat ain't going to stop me. I lost the fight today, but I havent lost the war. It will make me hungrier. I will get more disciplined, get more in my training, and they can't stop me. I'm going to come back, and I will be champion again."
