HBO polled a group of boxing writers and only 12% thought Pacquiao won last week

2 weeks later and you're still crying.

 

The 43% didnt watch it in Slo Mo!

 

everyone knows jmm won the fight and that it was not even close. the only one to win a over manny with out the ko is floyd.

 

After rewatching the fight with an unbiased view, I had it scored a draw. It was less of a clear decision than their second fight. I think a lot of people want to edge Marquez because the rounds that he did win, he won big, but on shear scoring, it was a very close fight. People want to take this as an opportunity to slag on Pacquaio, but if you watched him in this fight, he looked as good as ever. In some ways, he looked to have improved. Marquez is one of the greatest counterpunchers in the past 20 years, and Pac stood toe to toe with him as a pure boxer. Moreso the in the previous fight two fights.

 

Marquez won handily.

Round by round

We will see what a robbery it was.

:good

 

Nah but 12% having it for the guy who won does.rofl:hi:

 

this is one source...not the entire picture. The 12% the following week had it for Manny...yea 12%:rofl:rofl

 

LOL butthurt...You *******s are butthurt over the Bradley fight. Let's not even get on butthurt.

 

No...more like 12% for pacquiao and that is a robbery wether you like it or not. Marquez more than tripled Manny's pathetic 12%. Almost 4X yet to satisfy yourself, you look at one number.

So here let's take the draw out of it..better yet, let's add it to both figures..

Now what do you get?:rofl

 

Let's cut it in half and give 21% to each.

So Marquez 67% while Manny took 33%. LOL.

Biggest robbery of the year voted by Ring magazine fans.
