......and as I mentioned in my review, 8-4 is as close as anyone can get to the scoring disparity........and you'd have to give everyone of the closer rounds to Pacquiao. .....as you said, be generous. I've made it a habit through my years of scoring not to be generous to any fighter but score the way I see each and every individual round, regardless of how and who won the previous rounds.
I've watched it in Gateway Cineplex Philippines and thought Marquez won 7-5. Most were stunned with the decision but a few gave the obligatory "golf clap" for Pacman lol. For those who have seen the HBO broadcast, what was Marquez and Pacquiao's fight time weight?
9-3 or 8-3-1. Pac got schooled. A lot of other posters in other forums had Pac winning 10 rounds. *******s were probably crying before the gift.
I could never find 10 rounds for Marquez, but I think he probably did win the fight on second viewing.
Marquez was magnificent and won the fight. Those 2s and 3s were restricting Pacquiao's opportunities and it was as you predicted a masterclass. I truly felt Pac would have the Power to hurt Marquez but his intelligence and sharpness in there was brilliant. I dont think Pac was bad either, he was made to look bad!
http://www.eastsideboxing.com/forum/showthread.php?t=358749 I dont expect this embarassment of a poster to even acknowleadge there were plenty of others that cant find a clear round to give Pacquiao. Apparently in other boxing forums, the scorecards are as a whole wider than they are in this ******* infested forum.
