Simply, because he was the aggressor and the champion. there are so many close rounds in that fight and that favours tha pacman. I believe that in a championship fight the challenger should do more in order to win a round. The hbo compubox should us that manny edges marquez in every categories there is. It is a 10 point scoring system and, I saw that Manny won a very close fight.
Sorry, aggression for the sake of aggression does not equal winning rounds. Pacquiao's punches were sloppy and flat a majority of the time. Marquez was crisp, cleaner, and effective.
in their second fight marquez landed more according to compubox and he was the champion. why didnt he get the decision?
Manny won because the promotion machine behind Pacquaio invested toooo much money on preserving the "Invincible" image. & the potential to make $ far outweighs sportsmanship.
I'd say Pac won, but it was close enough that JMM could have won or a draw could have happened. Acting like this is a robbery is ridiculous.
i think deep inside JMM is happy since he will get another big payday once again, and i got pac winning too
he looked anything but invincible last night. i guess he really was cherrypicking. most of his latest opponents were coming off lackluster performances or devastating loses. screw alex ariza. marquez should knock him out.
Pacquiao's mouth was busted up. Lol at the people using compubox to prove Manny won. Pacquiao built up his compubox edge in the jab category, Manny's jab is used more as a distance finder than an actual weapon, there was only a 17 punch difference between the 2 in the power punch category, and Marquez power shots were by far crisper and cleaner.
