the word robbery is the most overused word in the history of the sport. its down right pathetic. the fight was a war and we all knew it would be. compubox shows pacquiao outlanded jmm in every round and landed over 40 more power shots over the course of the fight, and almost 100 more jabs over the course of the fight. imagine if he had lost the fight - that would have been crazy. beaten by a man who landed less punches? WTF? the three judges have more than 5000 fights between them and have 90 years experince between them, yet a bunch of people who watched the fight on TV drinking beer think they are wrong? bloody stupid
http://www.boxingnews24.com/2011/11/khan-saw-marquez-as-the-winner-against-pacquiao/ His friend and sparring partner thought JMM won. American,British commentators. Face it mate it mate Pac only had to remain upright after 12 to win.
God you say some ****ing stupid **** capslock, did you watch the fight or just had a geez at the compu box stats? It's not amature rules, ring control and effective punching was all JMM, PAC was flat out landing anything substantial.
Have not re-watched the fight but I thought Marquez won a close one. Was it because the expected dominance of Pacquiao never came to be?

I enjoyed the fight. I caught the HBO broadcast. They believed that Marquez just wasn't busy enough. Harold had Pacquiao up by 4 points I think.
and your opinion ippy? im going to watch the replay now be interesting to see how i view it compared to others
From all the **** that has surfaced regarding how it was possible for pacman to get the nod for a victory from this fight, i now assume that if i go into a ring and can swing my arms in a constant windmill for 12 rounds without getting KOed I will deserve to win on aggression regardless of how effective my method is.
When the final bell sounded Pac walked to his corner like a beaten man. When the decision was announced he was almost shock happy that he got the nod.
Manny lost.... HBO and Bob Arum however will protect their 150 million dollar payday against Mayweather at all costs....
You know after reading all the stats what really caught my eye the most. Is Round 7. Pac landed Twice as many shots for the round and 6 more Power Shots yet every judge gave it to Marquez. I mean what happened in this round to say JMM Won clearly. Ive watched the round a few times now and everyone calling it a Robbery should watch it without sound i feel its a lot closer fight without sound IMO.
