    You know that it doesn't hold the same weight. You aswell as I know that if you write stuff all over the place like the last one, your opinion won't be taken seriously. Though, the statements give the same answer with facts. It has to be presented in a normal matter right? Giving the way to formal is ok, but I do understand you doing it just to be prove a point. Now, how good that point is, that I think you know.


    Back to the fight. Last night I scored it 115-113 to Pacquiao. So, either I think it was alot closer than you, or you gave Marquez all or most of the close rounds. And that's fair if you really believe that.


    I'm going to do the above, and watch it again today. To see if I was off in any way, either to Paquiao or Marquez.


    Here are some other scorecards from last night:

    Harold Lederman, HBO: 115-114 Pacquiao
    Dan Rafael, ESPN: 114-114
    Michael Rosenthal, The Ring: 115-113 Pacquiao
    Eric Raskin, HBO/Sweetscience.com: 116-112 Marquez
    Doug Fisher, The Ring: 114-114
    Kevin Iole, Yahoo! Sports: 114-114
    Jake Donovan, Boxing Scene.com: 115-113 Pacquiao
    Steve Kim, Maxboxing.com: 115-113 Marquez
    Tim Dalhberg, Associated Press: 114-114
    Michael Woods, ESPN/Sweetscience.com: 115-114 Pacquiao
    Teddy June, Ringjunkies.com: 114-114
    Michael Marley, Examiner: 114-113 Marquez
    Gareth Davies, Daily Telegraph: 114-114
    Brian Campbell, ESPN: 114-114
    Martin Rogers, Yahoo! Sports: 115-113 Marquez

    And total punches:

    Total punches:

    Paquiao 176/578

    Marquez 138/436

    I'm pretty sure Lederman somehow scored the fight 116-112 for Pacquiao.

    One thing that dilutes your point more so than the usage of colourful language is the usage of compubox stats to help make your case. If you need me to explain that then it's somewhat of a lost cause. Another thing I don't need is to see what other humans, mere mortals like myself scored the fight as. I can see it myself.

    By the way, I just watched the fight on the link you gave me, the commentary on that version was appauling imo, so biased towards Pacquiao it was unreal. I assess rounds independently of one another and therefore overall statistics relevant to a twelve round fight as a whole mean nothing in direct relation to my scorecard. I'm not a big fan of either man, I was objective, and I had the fight 8-4 for Marquez.

    :lol:

    I watched the Primetime program last night with Khan commentating and thought Marquez edged it. I just watched the HBO program and the commentating definitely favored Pacquiao. Khan was saying Manny isn't looking good and shouldn't be taking some of those punches and how upsetting it was. The HBO theme was that Marquez isn't flashy enough to win rounds.

    EVERY SINGLE TIME there is a fight that is controversial I have to listen to some guy telling me to watch it with the sound off.

    I don't need to watch it with the sound off.

    That is all.

    I watched it without sound and chose to give even rounds. I had Marquez 116-114, because he was winning the clear rounds while Pacquiaos rounds wasnt convincing thats why I chose to score two of them 10-10

    Yes, the commentators looks to be a little biased. And when I watched it last night at the channel Primetime, they were very biased towards Marquez. These guys had it 4-1 after 5 rounds to Marquez last night, and there is no where in thell that any of the two fighters won 4 of the first 5.

    So, I watched it again. And I scored it 115-114 for Pacquaio this time.

    Round 3,4,8,9,10 were awful close rounds.

    10-9
    10-9
    9-10 (close round)

    10-9 (close round)
    9-10
    10-9

    9-10
    9-10 (close round)
    10-10 (close round)

    10-9 (close round)
    9-10
    10-9

    how hard punches land and the sound it makes should always be factored into a fight, why turn off the sound.
