    True story

    pacman and his corner knew they lost that fight, seems like Christmas came early for PAC.

    8-4 jmm won that fight

    Guzman destroys pacman btw,

    Nah, it wasnt like Marquez was bashing pac from pillar to post. I think JMM won but not really a robbery.

    It was a great fight, im sure boxing gained some new fans from last nights action!

    Marquez clearly won. How could one of the judges have 115 -112 in Mannys favour?

    Totally corrupt.

    Horrible decision.

    It was a close but clear victory for jmm. Similar to when he beat barrera. Somewhat close but jmm clearly won.

    I know 4 others that won't watch a fight now.

    There loss I guess, but its understandable.

    I seriously dont know what fight he was watching. Judges should be tested for levels of stupidity.

    Stupid Post and thread.

    All i will say is Pacman has fought 2 really close fights with JMM and i feel both fights were that close that i have No problem with the decisions made. And if this fight turned you off boxing well stop watching because i wish there were more fights like this one on a weekly basis.

    As for Guzman he is still an overhyped stupid **** that hasnt faced anyone even in the top 50 in the World were as Pacman has now beaten 3 Future Hall of Famers.

    Pacman will and if they fight Rock this overhyped little tyson by KOing him within 8 rounds.

    Guzman has been hyped up on this board more than any other fighter ive ever seen. you are one that believes the hype. Guzman aint no JMM or Barrera for that matter and he will soon feel the pain when he faces someone of Pacman quality.

    it was a close fight, i liked mannys superior firepower, and marquez looked like the beaten fighter in the end. add the knockdown and its not really controversial, and i havent read any boxing scribes so far calling it a robbery.

    I dont think that'll ever happen, but others have.

    It does make me love boxing a little less. I'm not even a jmm fan but I hate seeing fighters get the decision when they quite clearly lost the fight

    It was a razor-thin decision. I thought Pac deserved to win the first bout by a slim margin and that Marquez deserved this one.

    Anyone who uses the word "robbery" has an agenda. Close fights can go either way.

    I was acctually rooting for pacman and the fight was acctually really close but I have to admit after 12 rounds I was expecting marquez to win this one

    I would think fans would be turned off by such a decision. Good evenly matched fight but yet again J.M Marquez was ROBBED. Eight of us watched it with six being huge Pacman fans and all of us thought it a robbery!

    Golden boy is the new Don King, mark my words. . .

    I don't dispute the decision even though, I thought Marquez won ... it was a seesaw battle and they were going back and fourth ... I think in the middle of the fight Marquez easily banked those rounds ... he was knocked down but that didn't effect him alot, but it couldve influenced the judges from then on.

    I mean the judges are human and they couldve easily been persuaded by the knockdown and agressiveness ...

    114-113 Marquez ... I think if anything despite it being a split - the second card in favor of Pacquiao shouldve been closer ... if anyone won by a wide margin it was Marquez.

    I think now Pacquiao is going to fight Diaz for that faux title.
