Who was winning - & by how much - until the KO?

I had Pac probably winning all of the rounds except the third but first 2 were close. Thought Pacquaio was doing well until the KD but Marquez always looked very dangerous.

 

47-46 Pac for me.

 

I had many up 3-2 then again i was watching a shitty stream.

 

Pacquiao was up 47-46 and the 6th was his also before the KO.
Funnily enough he had the gameplan this time and he was starting to dominate Marquez more than he ever had - Marquez was just a flush left away from a KO himself, it was that kind of fight.

Marquez's patience and awareness of when to pull the trigger is brilliant and he capitalised on the one thing Pacquiao was not supposed to do. He got off balance with a wild straight right and fell into Marquez' right - something he was not supposed to do.

Where Marquez got that extra power from who knows, giving him the benefit of the doubt his camp clearly worked well. However giving Pacquiao some credit, he was starting to steamroller Marquez and it was ironically the best I've seen him look for years.

But a masterful counter from Marquez ended it, and Pacquiao should have learnt from the previous 3 fights.

I think we'll see a 5th fight, I don't see where Pacquiao can go. They will offer Marquez parity or maybe even more - he will not turn down $15m and we'll get 5 done in April...

Will MArquez accept? Well to be fair PAcquiao gave him his time in the sun after 2 losses so maybe it's his turn to do the same. A motivated Pacquiao vs Marquez who maybe feels he has nothing to prove would be an interesting reversal of roles.

 

47-46 pac he was winning but not dominating :deal

 

:deal

All three judges had this too.

Good post.:good

 

He was - the KO in round 5 followed by an onslaught, at one stage I thought the ref might stop it at the end of 5. In the 6th Marquez had only got 5 body shots on target in the whole round before the big right came up.

Pacquiao was dominating after the adjustment from the KO in the 4th - denying that is a case of overbias towards Marquez.

 

Lol flash knockdowns??
Did you even see the fight??atsch

 

dominating? :huh he wasn't beating the **** out of him across the whole ring thats dominating pac was simply just getting an upper hand which i do admit impressed me he almost looked as good as he was in the 2nd fight(which is the only fight i had pac winning in their quadroligy)

 

I had Pac up by a round myself... but JMM looked very dangerous at every moment.
I think another thing a lot of people were overlooking is that JMM often would go out of his way to finish any exchange with a body shot.

Pac actually visibly reacted to some of those bodyshots.

 

47-46 Pac.
It was a dam good fight, too bad it didn`t last, but atleast it was a shocker of a win.
