    An agenda huh? What a lot of nonsense. It was a robbery and all who saw know this.

    Jmm has beaten pacman twice now. Both close, but pacman was quite clearly outboxed on both occasions.

    He beat an old morales, I give him the barrera victories, he beat him. He's made his name defeating an old morales and a once prime barrera. He has lost both times to jmm.

    What were you watching? Pacman was clearly looking like the beaten man. He knew he got a gift, that's also why he won't rematch jmm.instead he'll move up and fight a crappy boxer in David Diaz.

    As for hype on the boards, all boxers get hyped on here, guzman will deliver

    After a fight like that - at was pretty good - fans should turn away from boxing. The fight was that close - I had it 114-113 Manny - due to the kd.

    This fight should make people want to watch more of Boxing - not turn them away.

    ii'd say that competitive fast paced fights like this actually bring fans to the sport.

    **** like ibragimov-klitschko, drive fans away.

    the fight was close but it was deffinetly no robbery. i would say that pacs powershot were the factor in making it seem like he was doing more damage. imo jmm won a close one but it's a tossup on how some may have had it.

    Everyone who calls this a robbery isn't thinking straight IMO. I was rooting for Marquez, but i could see a 1 or 2 point advantage either way. It was close, it was compelling and it was just plainly a terrific fight.
    Any fan who was turned away from boxing by anything that happened last night had no right to be considered a "fan" to begin with IMO.

    I will sit here and say i vividly think JMM won this fight but however i feel Pacman won the 1st fight. Yes he may have outboxed him 70 % out of the two fights but JMM had to get up of the canvas 4 times in 2 fights and thats not a little number.

    Your a novice Dude a Novice and both fights were that close that what has happened isnt robbery it is what we call as JMM leaving it in the judges hands becuase as far as im concerned the challenger in boxing has to take the title off the Champ not the other way.

    And when a boxer that you say has completly outboxed Pacman yet got knocked down 4 times in 2 fights was the clear winner you are well

    FULL OF ****.

    The fight were close i cannot believe people cant wake up to the fact that all judges are different some reward fighters in different ways but how can a judge rweard a fighter a clear victory especially in the 1st fight when he has tasted canvas 3 times.

    JMM left it in the judges hands and he paid the price for not staying on his feet with defense.

    Its that simple.

    It was not a robbery. Very few people here view it that way. Check out the poll.

    You should have seen this forum talking about Casamayor's most recent fight. *That* was a robbery.

    This? No way.

    Actually, it appears most neutral observers thought the fight could have gone either way. Check out the various polls. Don't project.

    LOL I dont make stupid bets.

    What's my post count got to do with anything?

    I dont have any hidden agenda, I just dont like it when a boxer doesn't get the W he desvered.

    Turn fans away? **** some of you guys are ridiculous. Instead of two fighters receiving their "props", you come on here and all you see is controversy! robbery!
