    No one can really claim anything..its that close very evenly match albeit different fighters

    so we need to stop the **** "yeah JMM kills PAC he kills him by 1 or 2 points" :rofl and vice versa for PAC fans to claim yeah "he was down" and do **** in the championship rounds

    Honestly I had JMM by a point but frankly who gives a ****...These are two great fighters.

    JMM Master boxer who just finds a way to diffuse PAC..I was very impressed with Juan..I feel he now truly belongs with Erik and MAB. He really impressed me tonight..just because PAc was ready and was blocking initially but this guy will get you eventually. A skillful Master

    As for Manny, Pac is Pac he is something special in his own way..clearly outstyled by JMM..but for some reason this Mofo comes up big and KD Marquez!..Had that round went on it could have been over right there.

    The point of the matter here is that there are no bragging rights..too evenly close..they really negate each other. JMM tools PAc technically but PAC has that power and intangibles...

    These guys fight 10 times it'll be all close.

    JMm will rule the 130 division when PAc goes up

    PAc from what Ive noticed have been lethargic lately..maybe hes really having problems cutting..If he looks impressive agsinst D. Diaz, I might change my mind

    They are both great fighters.

    This is the right mainstream answer. No one was robbed... No one was owned. Both were great. The fight was awesome and comes a close second to Izzy-Marquez's brutal fight. It had everything. Smart counterpunching, big power punches, cuts, knockdowns plus you could feel the electricity coming from the TV screen. Either that or I was sitting on a loose wire somewhere there.

    Unfortunately, not everyone is as open-minded as you are. I for one was disappointed on how the fight remained in a cloud once again...it would have been easier if neither fighter won convincingly.

    The 12th round did it for me ...I was shocked when JMM came out hungrier..its pretty disappointing

    I agree with the thread and agree with the post, on my score card pac had it closed but i wanted him to make a definitive win by clearly winning the 11th or the 12th, the 11th was close and he didnt win the 12th.

    I was dissappointed but felt he still won. IMO Pacquiao body is more ready for retirement then JMM is.

    I mean the fight was hanging in the balance that round. You want unbiased..listen to their corners..Nacho and roach were both freaking worried.. I was expecting alot from PAc just because he coasted the 2 prior rounds.

    Respect to JMM, he had alot of heart... which sometimes gets overlooked.. Like I said I need to see PAc at 135 before declaring him shot
