    Correct, could have been a draw too. Imagine 2 fighters fought twice and drew twice! Pac was declared the winner, but i do think a third fight is needed just to satisfy us fans. Unfortunately, the politics of boxing wont allow us to see this very soon. Still we are getting interesting fights from both (pac-dlh included).

    Although both fights were close, IMO JMM should be 2-0( I have it 16-8 in rounds) and is the better boxer of the two.

    But Pac is a fighter of destiny and I have no problem with him having one official win over JMM on his resume.

    People should really leave their hate aside when it comes to these two warriors.

    JMM will retire from the sport and be recognized as one of the finest boxers of his generation and PAC is one of those few fighters that comes along every generation.

    Enjoy them while they're here!

    Very close poll that reflects perfectly the fight. I thougt Pacman won the second fight (as well as the 1st) but the second could have gone either way easily.
    Very close fight. I would never be satisfied and say "Pac own JMM" until they agree on a rerematch and Pac win clearly.

    too close to call. If there will be a rematch, i think the fight would still end up in a very close one, either fighter will bring home the pride and either of them will be ahead in .000001 point advantage.

    wow after 6 pages. both fighters tied in scoring in 120 voters!

    hmmn...i think the third fight will be different. Here we will see who carried the additional weight better. The winner of this fight will be much clearer:hey

    I see only two clear reasons how anyone of them will be a clear winner

    1. If a new and a very effective fighting style would surprisingly explode from any of the two in 3rd match.

    2. Age

    The second option sounds like another sore losers excuse. I'd go for the 1st one:good

    JMM (34) vs Casa (37) what made the difference? Coach FR can attest to this thats why he is keen in pushing Pac against ODLH. I think the 2nd reason has certain degree of merit.

    JMM is different from ODLH, JMM is probably one of those fighters who does not age as fast as the others. (like BHOPS), in fact JMM just made a masterful performance against a crafty Casa.
    So if he loses anyime now is because he's old? lets not take the deserved credit from the victor.

    I had Pac escaping with a 114-113. The KD broke the tie.
