    So how come they were also evenly split for the first and second? If JMM had done so much better, wouldn't if finally swing his way? I see credible people that scored it for JMM for 2, and Pac for 3.

    I'm sure there's bias there. But compared to ESB General? Don't make me laugh.

    the first 2 were close
    theres a guy called BOB ARUM, ever heard of him?
    same guy that robbed Pacquiao versus Bradley
    he made sure Pac lost to his up and coming star not the old Marquez
    your a Pacquiao fan and your saying it was a draw, so your basically admitting Marquez won if you watched it non biasedly

    Dude, almost NOBODY gave Cotto the Floyd fight. That's revisionist history. The overwhelming majority scored the Cotto-Floyd fight somewhere between 10-2 and 8-4 in favor of Floyd.

    People may not like Floyd, but nobody dislikes him enough to turn in a ridiculous scorecard favoring Cotto.

    It was a very bad decision. No way Pac won more than 5 rounds.

    thats what im saying though a few people think they were boxing writers or some **** had Cotto winning
    shows how biasnedness can affect your scorecard
    hence why all the *******s had Pac winning

    It is the clearest case of a victor among their first three fights. Marquez won. Less than 20% on every poll has Pac winning.

    I think I scored it 10-2 or 9-3 Marquez. I thought the rounds were all close rounds.
    In comparsion to Pacquiao/Bradley it was a robbery. Compared to Whitaker/Chavez, it wasn't.

    Just a close fight that should have been scored for Marquez IMO, but judging is subjective. Marquez didn't do himself any favors by taking his foot off of the gas in the last 2 rounds. There was this feeling that Marquez deserved to win based on the previous 2 fights, so a close fight in favor of Pacquiao was always going to be seen as a robbery to the masses.

    I don't care how others called it, I wasnt runk and I have 2 eyes that work. Marquez schooled him, period. Couldnt care les what anyone has to say about it, I know what I saw.

    It sure felt like a robbery at the time.

    Was a Marquez win, clear as anything.

    Not according to press row scores, quite the opposite. They show a textbook robbery for Bradley, and a textbook draw for JMM 3. If you got your scores on there somehow, it wouldn't change a thing, same averages.
