    This seems to be a common story for many.

    Got a call today from someone in the "Marquez Was Robbed!" camp. Told me he watched the replay and now says he can see how Pacquiao won the fight, or could have won, because the rounds were so close.

    Conclusion: Too many people got emotionally invested in the fight to score it properly or see how it could have been scored for Pacquiao. Inevitably, once emotions calmed down, they watched the fight again and came to a more reasoned understanding of what happened.

    Winner? Truth, over emotion. :bbb

    It is a close fight. Most fans do need to watch it again to see how close it really is.

    close fight.

    i think this was the best fight of trilogy and probably the best performance of both, technically speaking.

    a chess match from start to end

    When someone writes a contrary opinion, he is called dumb/idiot. When someone agrees to an opinion, he is can always expect to be called brilliant. To avoid being called a dumb, a "friend" who said this and that is always a convenient way. And since there will always be those who will disagree, dumb/idiot label will be inevitable. So why not make your "friend" the idiot?
