    now i know its old news that pacquiao was robbed in this fight but what i found suprising is the ammount of people who said pacquiao completely dominated bradley when i and many others only had pacquiao up by 2 rounds


    do you think the fact that pacquiao has an iron chin and bradley has feather punches factored into your scoring?

    people would argue bradleys punches werent effective but if they are landing flush then they are still scored

    Then don't go around jogging pounding on your chest on national television yelling,"You ain't the best, I am"! You have to show me that you're better then me.

    Same **** with Marquez. The dude chased PAC for years taunting PAC about how he beats him. He even went to PAC own country to confront him. He said if given another chance he's going to knock PAC out and he's not going to run like coward Mosley. Comes fight all he does is just fight to survive and see if he can get a decision. Manny Steward even said: Marquez is not fighting like he wants the win, he should be taking more chances.

    marquez is to chinny to stand toe to toe with marquez

    the 3rd fight for marquez was a clear victory and the clearest victory in the triology.

    Marquez didn't win the third clearly, it was a close fight that could have gone either way. The only reason people say PAC lost is because PAC was supposed to steam roll Marquez and knock him out which didn't happen. All the boxing writers and whatever scored 1/3 for Marquez, 1/3 for Pacquiao, and 1/3 for draw. They gave PAC the fight because he was the one chasing Marquez all night.

    Tell me why Pacquiao was not letting his hands go with force against Marquez?

    Why was Pacquiao arming his punches instead of punching through the target???

    Explain how the runner is violently and repeatedly snapping Pacquiao's head back and is'nt doing the same in return????

    Its called boxing my friend, stop posting and start reading, you may learn something!:bbb

    Absolutely not! the vast majority, like 2/3 of boxing beat writers scored for Marquez, the majority if the rest scored a draw with very few biased heads scoring for Pacquiao!

    Thats a fact. Find me a link with a poll conducted the week of the fight that has Pacquiao even close to Marquez in far as votes for who won the fight?

    Most polls had Marquez getting 2 out of every 3 votes with the rest of the votes divided between a win for Pacquiao and a draw.

    The HBO poll conducted at ringside from sport writers only had a 12% vote for Pacquiao. How does 12%= to 1/3?

    The thing is that the majority of the punches the HBO crew was going bonkers were landing by Pacquiao, were not.


    Very few clean hard connects were landed by either fighter. Bradley had as many hard connects as Pacquiao, only it did'nt seem that way because of Bradley's body language in avoiding the shots.

    I scored the fight by two points for Pacquiao but was shaking my head throughout in disbelief as to how Lampley was calling the fight.

    On my scorecard Pacquiao had the fight in hand through 8 rounds, but then he goes into sparring mode and lets Bradley outhustle him the rest of the way making it close on my card.
