    Precisely!

    Floyd offered Pacquiao a $40,000,000 guarantee and the offer was declined! Nuff said...

    AndreBerto Andre Berto

    RealJoeCalzaghe Joe Calzaghe

    ChrisArreola Chris Arreola

    DarrenBarker82 Darren barker

    andredirrell Andre Dirrell

    jcchavezjr1 Julio Cesar Chavez
    Gano marquez hoy. Fue un robo juan manuel gano claramente. esto esto es malo para el boxeo. Saludo a todos
    [Translation: Marquez won today. It was a robbery, Juan Manuel won clearly. This is bad for boxing.]

    SUGARRAYLEONARD Sugar Ray Leonard
    The fight against Manny vs Marquez surprised everyone except Marquez! What a display of mental, spiritual and physical training of a boxer!

    _FernandoVargas FerozFernandoVargas

    Great fight for the boxung fans but bad decision by the judges

    Post more if you find them.

    EDIT: UPDATES

    ChinoMaidana Marcos Maidana
    Pobre Márquez lo robaron!
    [Translation: Poor Marquez, they robbed him!]

    Marvin Hagler "Wake up people and realize that we can no longer tolerate corruption in our sport. There needs to be a primary governing body."

    OscarDeLaHoya "I'm still sitting on my couch in disbelief. Paquiao cannot compete with a counter puncher like Marquez. Juan has the Patience to wait and capitalize on mistakes. I think this shows how superior mayweather is."

    Andre Dirrell "Ok after this fight, I don't know what 2 think! Did JMM just have a good night, or did Pacman put on a great possum show 2 get MW! U TELL ME. GO GET YO GLOVES ON AND COME WHOOP THIS DUDE!!!! PACMAN CAN'T SEE YOU!!!"

    Steve Cunningham "All pro fighters I know ,guys which know what to look 4 in a fight had jmm winning. It's not just entertainment to us its a #lifestyle#"

    Anthonydirrell "If y'all think that they was bout to lose out on 150 million y'all crazy"

    Matthew Macklin "It was close but still wrong...and for it to happen THREE times!!!!!?? WTF!!!"

    Terry Norris "Wow! Thought PAC man would win. But clearly Marquez was robbed again. PAC did NOT win this fight."

    Omar Henry "Wow I just watched Pacquiao get beat and Marquez get robbed!!!! and yes I was one of the people in the crowd booing the robbery!!!!"

    Rashad Holloway "I'm team Pacquiao all day but Marquez won this fight hands down. Sad to see how politics run this sport when fighters work so hard."

    Anthony Mundine "I luv PAC too...but he lost fair & square...but I'm sure he will return stronger...PAC v Marquez 4 #bringit. Actually I change my mind! Marquez deserves the pay day v money!! As he was really the victor! Don't think I wanna see 4. Even tho money."

    Erik Morales "Nos robaroooon y feo. Marquez total reconocimiento es el segundo mexicano que le pone en su madre a pacquiao, gano y gano muy bien felicidadees!" Which translates to English as "They robbed us and it was an ugly robbery too. To Marquez total recognition, he is the second Mexican to beat the sh!t out of Pacquiao, he won and he won nicely. Congratulations!"

    Kendall Holt "If u thought Pacman won or if Marquez needed the 12th to win its clear u don't know ish about this sport."

    Peter Manfredo Jr. "Wow, after watching this, I better not leave it to the judges next week!!!"

    ElKoChul Fernando Montiel M
    Q pinche robooooooo. Gano markez y c la kitaron d new. Shialeeeee !!! [translation: What a ****ing robbery. Marquez won]

    realdealgeale Daniel Geale
    I thought the decision was close but in my opinion it should have gone the other way.

    K9boxing Cornelius Bundrage
    Just got back in town was at the PacMan fight. Marquez got Robbed. I will Destroy PacMan. I been knew it y'all just didn't know.

    Champfasteddie Eddie Chambers
    The Pacman vs Marquez fight could of went anyway... So I was expecting pacquiao to get the decision...

    George Foreman III (George's son) "PAC got outsmarted. It was a tactical victory 4 Marquez but PAC was the aggressor. I think it should've been called a draw."

    2012Jlove J'Leon Love
    They played my man Marquez lastnight on the fight. He boxed a perfect fight it sucks that #boxing judging is so terrible.

    Raul Martinez "Marquez 7 Pac 5. I want my ppv money back. That's why #Boxing losing fans to #mma. Mayweather eats pacman up.

    :hey

    I disagree with some things that Mr Holmes had to say, but I will leave it at that and refrain from insulting him out of respect to what he gave to the game.

    Both parties are to blame.

    Nobody said Marquez was afraid of him. Did Pacquiao have to let USADA blood test him for that fight? And he still lost, right?

    Mayweather has ushered in a new era of boxing where the best avoid the best. It's a shame really.

    Larry came from an different era; one in which the best wanted to test themselves against the best. It was for pride and esteem along with the money.

    Floyd doesn't fit in with that mentality. He's all about protecting his face, record, and earning power.
