Cards as of the stoppage in Pacquiao vs. Marquez IV

You know what they say; opinions are like assholes.

 

Most assholes were in agreement that night.

 

Where's Bama's card IB?
Didn't he give every round in the RBR to Marquez except for the KD he suffered?

Even then it was begrudgingly.

 

I had it 48-45 to Pacquaio at the time.


Rd 1 - 10-9 Pacquaio. Wouldn't argue either way if people gave it to Marquez or Pacquaio, it was close tight round. I gave it to Pacquaio just about as I think he landed a nice left hand and was more the aggressor.

Rd 2 - 10-9 Pacquaio. Thought he landed better and his movement and feints were working well.

Rd 3 - 10-8 Marquez. Knockdown round for Marquez. Great right hand.

Rd 4 - 10-9 Pacquaio. This was another close one, which at the time I gave to Pacquaio. Didn't think Marquez did much for the first half of the round, Pacquaio landed a few nice shots but Marquez worked the body well into the second half of the round. Both had success with combinations near the end, could have been a 10-10 round in hindsight or a Marquez round I wouldn't argue too much about, don't think it was clear either way.

Rd 5 - 10-8 Pacquaio. Knockdown round for Pacquaio.

Rd 6 - I had Pacquaio winning that round until the KO.

 

I dont bother scoring ,especially at 6.30am with a skinful in me. I thought Pacquiao was slightly edging it and was starting to look like he could steam ahead.

 

1% of the time like Bernard Milton Fife's trigger-finger.

 

The first 2 rounds were easily Pacquiao's, marquez won round 3 with the KO and round 4 because of Pacquiao stepping back a bit after the KO. Round 5 was all Manny so 47-46 is spot on.

Round 6 was all Pacquiao as well before the KO

 

What was Sluggers card??

60-54 in favour of Pac??

 

:rofl This true? Good old bama. I'm sure he even gave the KD to marquez. He has the power to make up the rules

 

Rd 1: Manny
Rd 2: Manny
Rd 3: Juan + KD
Rd 4: Juan
Rd 5: Manny + KD

47-46 for Manny before getting KTFO.

 

Was having a hard time deciding on the first round at the time. Having watched it back I think Pacquiao just edged it despite some good body work from JMM. Fairly comfortable with the other 4 completed rounds. So;


10-9 Pacquiao
10-9 Pacquiao
10-8 Marquez
10-9 Marquez
10-8 Pacquiao

47-46 Pacquiao.

6 was a Pacquiao round all the way until the KO.

 

That's straight left hand was finding it's mark in the 4th round....it was one of the more competitive rounds in the fight for sure...but PAC was pushing the action and landed the harder shots. Juan knocked out a few corners but his right hand missed a lot. His body work in round 4 was good. Not enough to grab him the round....not enough from Juan in round 4.

 

I wasn't scoring based PURELY on aggression, that's silly....PAC was more accurate, more busy and inflicted more damage. Sometimes Quantity over Quality wins out....sometime Quality over Quantity wins...in this case PAC had both Quantity and Quality on his side.

The right hand for Marquez did better in round 4 than it did in other rounds but was not landing more accurately than PAC's left in that round....and did not do the kind of damage PAC's left was doing when it landed on Juan.

In your opinion it was enough....not in mine. It was probably the closest round between the two in the 4th fight. All the other rounds were clear for PAC out side of the final seconds of round 6 and the 3rd round where Juan put PAC on the canvas.
