    :good

    It's just like when Buddy made Gatti box Mayweather instead of letting Gatti what he knew how to do best.

    You can't make the brawler outbox the master boxer.

    It is stupid.

    Body shots are often overlooked. I think he leads boxers to just get used to headhunting too, especially from the amateur ranks. The amount of times ive been screaming at the tv for a fighter to go downstairs

    I saw the fight with British commentary. It was great. I believe Amir Kahn had the fight for JMM. They all were talking about how great the 38 year old was doing. And how he was pulling of a miracle. Then after the fight, they went in on the judges. It was great. I had no idea HBO was that bias though.

    I dunno, I heard the HBO commentators mentioning JMM's bodywork quite a bit. Just not every single time he worked at the body.

    Half the time I saw them blocked by Pac's elbows. **** flies so fast it's sometimes hard to tell though.

    You can count in one hand the clean hard shots Pacquiao landed throughout the whole 12 rounds.:deal:lol:

    So comical was HBO's commentary that instead of wrapping it up by pointing to what it was Pacquiao did that made him deserve the decision, HBO was relugated to scrambling to attempt to make sense of it and could only search for words to describe that Marquez was'nt aggressive enough and did'nt go after Pacquiao when Pacquiao looked vulnerable and was there for the taking.:lol::nut

    It was comical beyond belief.:nut:nut:nut

    That is clear. Pac was throwing some heat in there. It's not like he could not hurt him. If Pac was landing like Compubox and *******s suggest he would of been KO'd. Pac tried to take his head off a few times but just hit thin air

    but was almost as bad with Mayweather-Ortiz. I think it's obvious what this network is trying to paint to its audience. When Mayweather lands a right hand, Steward will always have something negative to say. "He never follows up after the right hand ; too cautious".

    Lampley mentioned them like twice. (nevermind that they were landing in almost every round after the first few).

    I actually believe he hurt Pac with a couple of body shots throughout. After he would land them, Pac would sometimes take a step back and drop his hands down, like a late reaction.
