The unbeaten Timothy Bradley knocked out Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao in the 6th round of their welterweight match at the MGM Grand Garden Arena on Saturday, June 9, 2012.
UPDATE: Although not by KO, my prediction was correct. Bradley won the fight via split decision, 115-113, 115-113, 113-115.

The new world champion - Timothy Bradley - after the win. He himself cannot believe it!
This was unexpected as most Pacquiao fans would like to see the reverse. However, some boxing aficionados predicted that this would happen as they saw a less than enthusiastic and physique Pacman in the weigh-in yesterday.
Even the special candle used by Pacquiao's mom, Dionisia Pacquiao, while praying did nothing to change this unpredictable event. Also, the presence of Pacquiao's wife Jinkee and all their children did not bring luck to the uninterested boxing champion. Even the boxing enthusiasts and fans did not fill the whole arena.
I hope that my prediction above will not happen tomorrow, June 9, 2012, as million of Filipinos will be surely disappointed.
Addendum:
With the loss, Pacmom Dionisia Pacquiao fainted after hearing the defeat of his son Manny.
The world is shocked with the decision. Arum suggested that the two judges who chosen Bradley must have an eye examination and he will pay the bill. Even Bradley was shocked when he heard the result. Many think that Pacquiao has been robbed with the title. Well, let's watch the rematch in November 2012.
