    And they'll probably tell you because Pac came forward, threw more punches and landed more punches.

    The top names are protected as much as possible because they make the most money it seems.

    Even the UK top fighters / names are being protected by home decisions or their opponents are being stopped at the first hint of bother..

    It seems to me to have got far worse lately ... but what can boxing fans really do ? .. its not like they can stop watching something they enjoy ....its like cutting your nose to spite your face ..

    The promoters know it too .... and frankly they dont give a ****

    Spot on, i was ****ing fuming last night but also sickened by it, really turns me off the sport.

    There wasn't even a decision to be made about who won the fight, it was clearcut who the winner was.

    Disgusting way to treat a legend like Marquez yet again and of course it was down to corruption, to think anything else would be naive as ****.

    Team manny knew they didnt win the fight just look at them after the final bell

    Then look at marquez no over the top celerbrating to try and sway opinion just a one hand in the air walk and a smile from one end of the MGM to the other

    Love that he refused to hang around and give HBO there interview

    I was more fuming when Bernard Hopkins bitched out against Chad Dawson, and acted the victim.

    In a sport left to subjective views there shall always be conflict ....

    Dont get me wrong i marked JMM up by 3 but different judges are influenced by different styles...

    I thought it was a close fight and tbh wasnt surprised it got marked in Pacmans favour. Its hardly on the Cox v Sai level of bad judging ....

    i don't know what all the fuss is.as i watched it i scored the fight generally to marquez. i watched it again this morning with no sound on (so i couldn't hear the crowd or the commentary), no excitable emotion and i scored it round by round as it was happening.i ended up scoring it 116-115 to pacquiao. very close fight no doubt but in the cold light of day manny did just enough to hang on to the belt

    It was a close fight! Yes Marquez probably edged it but can't have any complaints about decision
