Baffled how on "all" judges scorecards have FMJ winning rounds 3 and 12?

    First of, im in my right mind to say FMJ outlanded (compubox says it well) and outboxed Pacquiao for this fight. He is simply the best in the game in negating an opponent's strength. Pacquiao didn't press as much, more to do with FMJ's elusiveness than Pacquiao not being the same fighter.

    I think Mosley is being preposterous in saying that the fight is 7-5 in favor of Pacquiao. I have it 7-5, FMJ winning.

    But.... I have one question that lingers in my mind when i saw judges scorecards in the above link, They "all" have rounds 3 and 12 for FMJ? I re-watched the video, no matter how many times i did, Pac won those 2 rounds mentioned clearer than round 9 (which i also have Pac winning, where 2 judges scored for Pac).

    There were some close rounds which could have gone either way including the ones you mention.

    Thanks Gneus7 for the response.

    Others are welcome to give a non-bias view for the rounds mentioned. If possible, point reasons why they're an FMJ rounds.

    Pac won 2 as well, but as expected from Floyd judges they scored any round Pac did not win with a shutout to Floyd. They only gave the rounds to Pac which they would otherwise be severely ridiculed.

    I gave Floyd the 12th round. I don't remember exactly why. Probably mainly for defence and ring generalship. Will have to rewatch this fight.

    Yeah the problem is the judges have such a ridiculous criterion to score rounds as well.

    Floyd definitely won the 12th. He controlled the pace and landed the better shots. I thought Mayweather won round 3 as well. However, many fans are impressed when fighters get off flurries against an opponent on the ropes. So I can definitely see an argument for Manny winning round 3. I thought Mayweather won 9-3. I think even Lederman had that score as well. I thought 4 rounds was the most Pacquiao could've won.

    3rd round is clear Pacs stood Mayweather up twice with right hooks twice, best punches in the round.

    I think Floyd lost rounds 4 and 6 (I think it was those two rounds). The other rounds he won my a wide margin. I'm really disapointed in Pacquiao I really thought he would be better.

    I think it's because Floyd won rounds 12 and 3. Generally, because Floyd won those rounds, the judges awarded him the round. They can't really award rounds that one boxer won to the other boxer. Honestly, I just think that makes very little sense. The judges have to award the rounds that boxers won to the boxer who won those rounds.

    Pacquaio won rounds 4 and 6, and perhaps one of the rounds in the second half of the fight. Just watched it again and have it 10-2 or 9-3 or 9-2-1.
