    Typo can be understood.

    Idiocy on the other hand can not.

    First of all, it is not a robbery.

    2nd, this must be the first fight you ever watched to even suggest this is the worst in the history of boxing.

    Well said.
    And that was despite him ruining the first few rounds with his "I love Manny" nonsense.Have to admit,Amir was honest in the end.

    Thanks for the link. That was I was asking earlier; the guide that tells everyone how to properly score boxing. Now I think I'll go do some reading and expand my knowledge. Nice having civilized conversation with you.

    I need to watch it again because I thought Marquez was sure to get the decision there. So did the Primetime commentators, including Khan by the sounds of things

    It's possible the fact that we are so used to seeing Manny win with ease and being shocked at seeing a close fight may have affected scoring, but that seems like reaching to me. My impression was Marquez won the fight and maybe Pac's best days are behind him

    I just watched the fight. I scored it 7-5 for Marquez. Possibly a 8-4 for Marquez. Marquez messed up big time when he backed off late in the fight. Other than that, Marquez fought a great fight. I felt Marquez deserved the decision.

    When does the HBO 24/7 Overtime thingy air?

    VERY curious to see Roach's reaction to the decision bearing in mind he sat there saying Pac needed the KO.

    I'm on my third view and this movie always ends the same.Just as above.
    Marquez knows he has this guy's number.
    So does the rest of the world except Pacquaio's fans,even Manny and Freddie know it.

    Yeah.

    A draw is a bad card IMO.
