    :good after witnessing a great fight, definitely, both men deserved to win

    but since pacman obviously won, more is deserved for him...

    ...not to discredit jmm as the decision could've gone either way imo.

    After rewatching the fight again(coz of Pay-Per-View), and watching the fight thoroughly. I had it 114-113 for Pac. But as I've said over and over again, this was so close that I have NO problem at all if some people scored it for JMM. The 11th was so close that it couldve gone either way, but I scored it for JMM. The 12th defo went to JMM. But I though Pac did enough on the rest of the fight to win it ever-so-slightly. His straightly left was accurate, his counter-punching has improved along with his defense(honestly he was blocking alot of JMM's shots it was shocking). Honestly how anyone can say that JMM dominated the fight or how it was a robbery is beyond me.

    Here's my scorecards:

    1. Pac - 10, JMM - 9
    2. Pac - 9, JMM - 10
    3. Pac - 10, JMM - 8
    4. Pac - 10, JMM - 9
    5. Pac - 9, JMM - 10
    6. Pac - 9, JMM - 10
    7. Pac - 10, JMM - 9
    8. Pac - 9, JMM - 10
    9. Pac - 10, JMM - 9
    10. Pac - 10, JMM - 9
    11. Pac - 9, JMM - 10
    12. Pac - 9, JMM - 10

    Final Score: 114-113 Pac.

    I noticed in the RBR thread, there were alot of people who scored the 7th round to JMM. It was so close, but for me JMM started strong hitting Pac with straight right leads and counters, but I thought Pac was the one who finished the round strong. By the middle of the round, Pac started hitting JMM with straight left after sraight left after straight left, almost at will in fact(if you guys get the chance to watch it again, you'll see what I mean no BS). So I gave that to Pac. I also gave Pac the 1st round because while JMM landed 1 very clean shot, that was actually the only punch JMM landed cleanly, while Pac landed more shots. They weren't as clean as that straight right from JMM, but were still clean enough.

    So to answer the question, I thought Pacquiao won, but JMM was just as deserving of it. One thing that baffled me though about this fight was that Pac's improved right hook was almost non-existant!! Anybody else noticed that?? Either way though this fight made me fan of JMM, I mean HUGE fan of JMM. I honestly thought he was done for when he got dropped in the 3rd, but to see him get up(and quickly I might add) and proceeded to win MANY rounds after that, I was just in awe at his huge heart and skill. I'm definitely gonna follow JMM's fights INTENTLY from now on. Yes, divac what your reading is true. Overnight, I became one of the biggest fans of JMM. And I defo want to see a 3rd fight between them. IT NEEDS TO HAPPEN!!!! We already had 2 classic fights between them. PLEASE PAC!!! YOU HAVE TO RECONSIDER!!!

    Didnt score the fight round by r0ound but my overral impression was the JMM was edging it.

    Ill watch the repeat later and score it as it goes along.
