Anybody crying robbery for Horn/Pacquaio needs to re-evaluate their eyes.

    Most of "press row" weren't at the fight.

    They were back home in America watching (and listening to) the ESPN coverage.

    Of course it was not a robbery. Only *******s say it was a robbery, yes, there are *******s in the press too, *******s and idiots with no idea about this sport too (even if they think they have).

    My apology. I was not aware of that. But I stick to my point that Pac won

    I wonder how long people will be whining about this poor decision. About as long as the Clintonians will whine about losing, I guess (full disclosure I DID NOT vote for Trump).

    I don't see it as a robbery but just a bad set of scorecards. But come on, 117-111?

    Bottom line is that Horn won't be around for more than a couple fights, then he'll fade back to Australia.
    Pac needs to retire. Even 3 years ago he would have convincingly defeated Horn. But now, he doesn't have the energy to deal with a younger, fitter, more active fighter. He has an entire nation on his shoulders, though, and sad to say I think we may see more losses than wins in the future for him. Maybe even another brutal KO loss.

    I was watching with the bias Aussie commentary of Danny Green & Bob Sheridan who were scoring every round to Horn and I had no trouble seeing that Pac was clearly winning.

    Horn MONSTERED the guy. 116-112 sounds right for Horn.

    Turn the SOUND DOWN and watch it again.

    When you have to rely on the opinion of casuals then you got little - press even worse.

    Clearly won = close, close fight on this forum.

    My eyes are just fine, and I had it 8-4 Pac. I believe it was robbery, as I feel it was a clear win and not a close fight with even rounds. I was not influenced by ESPN as I believe Teddy Atlas is clinically insane and speaks in riddles.

    "You are in the drive way, he's swimming in the ocean, your kids will remember this night."

    Whatever you say, Teddy.

    Ha3x actually this is from my own eye ball. I thought Pac landed the more accurate punches.
