    Although I believe JMM will win by wide decision, put me down for JMM by close decision.

    Judges just are'nt honest.....for JMM to get a 4 point margin or higher, he's likely going to have to clearly win 10 rounds.

    I believe JMM will win 9 clear rounds, but its likely not going to show up on the scorecards that way.

    Pacquiao T/KO 7. I believe that the rigid training that Pacman underwent for this fight will not come to naught.

    Pac KO 8.

    Hes gonna come in as good as he did Morales 3 but JMM is a tougher customer. I expect a KO anywhere from round 6-10 so 8 would be the most logical choice to cover all sides.

    I was debating the same thing in my head and was about to change it to close UD, but as of right now I'll stick with wide UD. Marquez should win at least 9 rounds if his reflexes/timing are still as good as they were against Juarez.

    Bump.

    a UD by 4 points should be considered close, not wide, imo


    1-5 points, close UD

    6-12 points, Wide UD

    quick question. If its 116-112 twice and 115-113 once, is that a close or wide ud?

    116-112 is borderline. It's winning double the rounds of your opponent. However, 115-113 means you only won 2 more rounds than your opponent. Hmmm......

    To answer your question though, I would think that 116-112 on two cards and 115-113 is a wide under the rules, with the reverse being close.

    and 12-0 is winning infinity times more rounds than your opponent

    7-5 or 8-4 is a close UD imo

    9-3 and up is wide.
