With a minute left, Pacquiao landed a jab that made Bradley try to showboat a bit before wobblign his knees and throwing a hard jab.
Bradley continued circling and not throwing as many punches as he had earlier.
Good two punch combo by Bradley.
10-9 round for Pacquiao on the SB Nation scorecard, making it 77-75 Pacquiao.
