    Anyone else saw the poll on HBO tonight?

    It was split up like 45% thought Marquez won, 43% had it a draw, and 12% thought Pacquiao won.

    :good

    Good! Now we don't have any basis for a pac-marquez 4. Marquez should now prepare to fight other boxers. Perhaps a fight with Berto or Ortiz can be made. After all, his fights with Pacquiao has made him a superstar who can carry his own PPV. Forget about Pacquiao. He will not win against pacquaio unless he knocks him out.

    did they ask them to rewatch the fight with no sound and no prefight bias and score RBR before giving an answer?

    Both polls last night blew up in HBO's face... lol

    One of them was I believe 64% in favor of JMM.

    It's just the *****s and pisstards that think JMM won. We have an agenda and we never give Pac his credit for his lunging super punches. Most of his Shots really landed it was just so fast that we just did not see it connect or Marquez did react to it b/c it knocked him out and back into consciousness in a nanosecond.

    43% having it a draw really doesn't support cries of robbery now does it?
