I had it 116-112 for JMM, and that is CLEAR! I feel bad for JMM, if this happened once to a fighter you'd feel sick, but 3 times to the same guy? **** Pac and **** Boxing after things like this happen!
Like I posted in another ******* post- Go find me another fight where a fighter NEEDED to win in order to SECURE possibly RICHEST fight in boxing History, and where Arum was involved in. I'll wait.
Same here. Pac's my favorite fighter but there's no way Pac won that fight. IMO it was the most decisive fight of the 3 and Marquez won it. I feel for Marquez, he deserved to win that... he effectively nullified Pac's offense and countered him hard and cleanly enough to make Pac wary of the counter punches. Marquez had Pac's number throughout the fight. It sucks because now, not only am I disappointed that Pac really lost (despite the scorecards), I also have a feeling of distaste over the decision. Even here in the Philippines, in the theater where I watched it, very few people cheered the decision, we all know who really won and most of us were bummed with the decision. Props to Marquez... he looked much stronger and faster than I expected him to be. He fought beautifully and much more deliberately than before, employing his game plan perfectly.
PAC very clear won this fight! He was the aggressor on this fight! JMM do all night was to counter...
Manny is still JMM's daddy. He tired JMM and shot down his punch output by movement of all kinds. Just landing on Pac does not mean your hand gets raised. Pac stole plenty of rounds with perfect lefts and sneaky right hooks that even HBO failed to point out. Masterful performance by Manny if not for the headbut he would have zero damage. JMM was spent in the last 3rd of the fight and by not going to war he admitted defeat. Numbers don't lie and this time JMM truly came up short. Thing that stuck out the most was Manny's defense not only in blocking but moving w/different angles and spaces was something magnificent to watch. The best counter puncher was right in front of him and did jack. Ring generalship at it's best tonight by Pacquiao.
I disagree I still think pac beats mayweather by ko Jmm just knows pacman inside and out now and can read him like a book.
Like I said to other poster, if you think that the win was undeserving, return the money or give it to those who lost betting on JMM. You'll feel better.
This is pretty spot on. I predicted Pacquiao KO3 which was way off. I had the fight 118-110 JMM; 2 rounds to Pac, but I can accept 4 maybe 5 rounds in favour of Pac as well as there were some pretty close rounds. I think the best thing we can all do is just rewatch the fight after a few days, once all the emotion has settled and see how it looks then.
Just finished watching the fight the 2nd time. If you think JMM clearly won you dont know **** about boxing. Going in you knew that jmm had to show authority in the ring and generalship to win. HE DIDNT DO THAT. I had the fight a draw both times....The downfall was nacho saying "you got this fight" in the 11th and 12th. Had he shut his ****ing mouth jmm would have taken it. Stop being idiots and get over the fact that this is boxing and regardless of how clean you want a decision to be, as long as its judged you tards will be butthurt until the end of time.
