Pacquiao vs Marquez 2: Pacquiao clearly won by 1 point

I scored it 114-113 for Marquez. I've watched the fight several times and I always score it the same way.

 

No he did NOT... here is my non-biased scorecard:

1. Pac 10-9
2. JMM 10-9 (clearly)
3. Pac 10-8 (clearly)
4. Pac 10-9 (clearly)
5. JMM 10-9 (clearly)
6. JMM 10-9 (Clearly)
7. JMM 10-9 (Clearly) *
8. JMM 10-9 (Clearly)
9 Pac 10-9 **
10. Pac 10-9 (Clearly)
11. JMM 10-9 (Clearly) ***
12. JMM 10-9 (Clearly)

FINAL: 114-113 for JMM.

* This is a easy round to score but people might not see it that well, before the Marquez cut JMM was winning the round with ease, after the cut Pac makes a comeback and he might be winning the round by a bit but after 2 or 3 seconds he tries to keep going against jmm and he gets countered hard, so the round goes to jmm by a bit, until here to the end of the round jmm keeps winning the round making it clear...

** Difficult round to score but I would give it to pac, Pac starts winning the round good, then jmm makes a comeback and he might tie the round but after 2 seconds pac connects a hard straight left going the round for pac, then in the last 30 secs marquez makes a comeback again and he might tie the round again but in the last second pac connects a hard straight left to win the round...

*** This might be difficult to score for some people because pac finish the round with a nice right hook but if you separate the round in parts you can see it wasnt enough clearly those last 5 seconds for pac...

A very close fight but if you watch it well the rounds were not difficult to score, this was a close fight with clear rounds for each fighter going the fight for jmm...

 

Pretty good analysis, hard to argue with your viewpoint here.

 

I wish I could agree, as this fight cost me money, but I wasn't disappointed when they gave the nod to manny.

 

it was a close fight that could have been scored either way. I also scored it exactly the way you did.

Marquez is a stylistic nightmare for Pac and a great fighter himself but he still can't manage to beat him, because Pac is just a once in a generation fighter. That's not hating on Marquez whom like I said is a amazing fighter. He was at his absolute apex in that second fight.

 

That's almost a contradiction in itself.

 

"Clearly" won by one point??
Yeah a one point win is so clear...:nut

 

Pac won that fight clearly ... I watched it over too and Pac increased his workrate down the stretch to get that victory. Marquez stopped going to the body and he stopped throwing that uppercut.

 

I think most people have it 1 point for Marquez.

 

Even Roach said that both Marquez fights could have gone either way.

 

I think most people have it 1 point for Pac.
