    Is Manny the first fighter in history whose fans have had to invent a whole new concept, that fights should be scored in slow motion, in order to give him a decision?

    :lol:

    Have you found the missing bullet from President Kennedy's assassination? You watched one of the most boring fights in some time in slow motion? Why? It Makes no sense at all to do that. Youve got far too much spare time on your hands bud.

    Floyd fans are being intellectually dishonest, sad. Refusing to re-watch fight in slow motion.

    Did Floyd win? yes, judges scored it that way

    Did Floyd dominate? hardly, he didn't do much

    Did Pac deserve win? probably not, even if he indeed landed more

    Was scoring and commentating biased? why not? Floyd is the Michael Jordan of boxing, remember how in his old age, everything Jordan did was overhyped? similar here.. why not admit it?

    Were punch stats inaccurate? only a slow motion carefully review can confirm this. I mean, can you guys not accept that this is possible? How can people recording punch stats see every punch clearly? moreso that watching fight in slow motion? fact of the matter is, watching it in slow motion provides us with a much more accurate count. It is possible that Pac indeed landed the most shots. Is it relevant? probably not, we can't get replay or an official re-scoring. Having said this, you Floyd fans should at least try and be intellectually honest and recognize that indeed there was a bit of bias on score cards. After all, he is the Jordan of boxing and will get all close rounds, or most of them. Opponents have to do more than what Pac did to award Floyd his first loss and this means doing more than just barely outscoring him, something Pac prob did.

    Have you ever committed to a fight decision one way or the other without watching it back in slow motion first? If so, what is special about this one, that not doing so makes somebody "intellectually dishonest"?

    Have you, for example, watched back the three close fights Manny had against Marquez in slow motion, just to ensure that your opinion on the decisions wasn't intellectually dishonest? Or is it the case that with literally every other fight you have ever seen you, like everybody else, accepted that boxing happens, and is judged, in real time?

    Slow motion is irrelevant because fights are officially scored in real time. Compubox has ALWAYS been inaccurate. Majority of fans and even professionals agree that Floyd won that fight, no robbery.

    This slow motion craze didn't come about until Pacquiao lost to Mayweather and it's painfully obvious why.

    It has nothing to do with "Floyd fans" being "intellectually dishonest", and everything to do with a certain select few trying to rewrite history and reverse the decision they cannot cope with.

    Bitter pill to swallow but get over it, this is pathetic.

    By no means am I even a Pacquiao guy. But I tortured myself with a video ****ysis complete with slow mowing, rewinding etc. a fight where neither guy landed much on the other, and low and behold Pac out touched/landed Floyd in most rounds. 115-113 or 116-112 for Pac. I never expected a video ****ysis to show Pac got shafted.

    False. Over the years there have been fans doing review ****ysis of fights and posting them online. Somebody even did one for Castillo vs Mayweather I a long while back. The Calzaghe vs Hopkins ****ysis showed how crooked the whole fight game is. It doesn't change the official result of the fight, but it gives you the clearest picture of who actually did what in fights. It shows how bad Lampley's commentary, CompuBox, and the official scorecards often are. Officially Floyd got the W. Video ****ysis of the fight doesn't back up Floyd being victorious though. And again, I am not a Pacquiao guy.

    the question is, what is the boxing commission's disposition with this evidence? a lot of boxing fans are doubting official results now.

    simple question, did you watch the slow motion tape? i bet not, this is intellectual dishonesty. Refusing to even consider that perhaps Pac did in fact land more. I agree with you that it's irrelevant as we can't go back and change the outcome but i find it comical that Floyd fans don't want to admit that Floyd wins rounds when he doesn't necessarily out land or out box an opponent. He is somewhat protected from his first loss because his first loss would be a calamitous event... This can't come by someone like Pacquio barely outscoring him; an opponent has to do a lot more than this to beat Floyd at this point. It's even stupid to not realize that scoring is biased towards Floyd. The commentating was a joke, Floyd would stick his arm and tap Pac and Roy Jones would get excited 'Look at that range control, he has Pac under control', Floyd would throw a right that would do nothing but land on Pac's gloves and Jones and lampley would act like kids in a playground 'wow, look at that a accuracy' It was comical, similar to how commentators would exaggerate every Jordan move when he was old, even if it was a pedestrian move.

    It's dumb to not admit judging and commentating is biased towards Floyd, it's a fact.
