MY scorecard for MAB/JMM...

I actually had it for MAB by a round but it was a very close fight....I think MAB and JMM proved they still have it in them but MAB impressed me more...he's been in the game longer, faught better fighters, more wars and still was able to (IMO) Beat the younger and a great technician like JMM. Prime for Prime MAB would beat JMM but today and tomorrow JMM would have the edge....I think that last fight may have been MAB last great preformance....we'll see how he doesn against PAC.

 

I had it 116-111 for Marquez...I could also see 115-112 Marquez, but there were some close rounds. Overall, I think JMM deserved to win the fight.

 

I don't remember my exact scorecard, but I had Marquez winning by at least a couple points. My buddy I was watching it with had Barrera winning by a couple points, but he loves Barrera and is blind when he scores fights for fighters he likes.

 

You want to have it both ways, you say it was an obvious KD, but then why in the hell would MAB act is if he was going to punch, stop, and then recock to unload a punch on a fighter who was obviously on the canvas.

The KD was'nt counted because by the way JMM went down, with his hands outstretched to break a fall, it looked to alot of people that JMM had slipped.
Nady's position kept him from seeing the punch land, and when he saw JMM trying to break his fall by outstretching his hands, he insinuated that he had slipped while punching.

There is absolutely no excuse for punching at a fighter who is down on the canvas, no matter where the heck the ref might be at the time.
If a fighter is on the canvas, you dont punch at him. Plain and simple!

 

I agree horrible missed knockdown call bye Nady, it was a 3 point turnaround, I scored it a draw like you without the knockdown, with the knockdown a close win for Barrera.

 

Correction, its 2 points, one for losing the round and another for the illegal blow.

 

You know what the funny thing is....Barrera shows his true colors when he was complaining to Larry Merchant about how they didnt score the knock down and how he won.... Larry said hey but you hit him on the head while he was on the canvas.. Barrera said no i didnt.. I forgot if he said it skinned him or he same some BS that Merchant repeated it with sarcasm.
I think Barrera knew at that point he was loosing, and that was his only chance of sealing the deal was by making sure Marquez was down by hitting him again. I think he lost it. If you look at the knock down, Jay Nadey was already trying to push Barrera off, but he went ahead and hit him again.

And there have been fighters known to be DQ'd after pulling a stunt like that...lucky he didnt get DQ'd for the foul.

 

Even with the KD Marquez won the round, KD makes it 9-9, point deduction makes it 9-8 in Marquezs' favour... rounds aren't automatically scored 10-8 in the favour of someone who scores a KD.

 

i thought JMM won, scored it similar to brooklyn, and MAB being a dirty fighter is not new to me...wasn't the ref's fault this time.

 

I had Mab by a hair, but no argument against JMM winning by a point or two (the judges were crazy with those wide scores).

 

Agreed. Marquez between 2-5 points is about right.

 

idiot. he could not stop his hand from hitting jmm while he was down.
it's just reflexes:what's on the mind it's too late to stop,especially at a heated fight with heated exchanges, things like that are possible to happen.
you are definitely just a blind jmm nuthugger. atsch
