You're the one who is coming across drunk. If you didn't notice, Pacquiao got way more cheers when he made his entrance. And there were nothing but boos when the fight was over.

Even Amir Khan, who was the color guy in the broadcast I viewed, who is a good friend of Manny and a fan, didn't think it was close.

Wrong again.

I'm not even a fan of boxing - MMA is much more entertaining.

The champ landed more punches and won a close decision, not a shocker by any stretch...

All the controversy BS is just that.

Lol.....boxing is dead. And no, I am not an MMA fan either. Boxing, horse racing, tennis....dead, dead, dead. People still pay for boxing matches?

Not at all. The numbers completely support the decision, which is what you have to rely on when the fight is as close as this one was.

When you're the challenger it's your job to come out and take the fight to the champ, not fight defensively/conservatively and hope they hand it to you.

Marquez didn't take anything away from Pacquiao. He avoided him and occasionally landed some nice clean shots. If he wanted to take Pacquiao's belt, he should've gone after him.

Punches Thrown:

Pacquiao 578
Marquez 236

Punches Landed:

Pacquiao 176
Marquez 138

Power Punches Thrown:

Pacquiao 117
Marquez 100

Funny how no one in the Pacquiao camp cried about a fix when they fought to a 'draw' the first time. One of the judges scored the first round wrong, and it cost Pacquiao the victory.

It's revealed that Clements scored the first round 10-7 for Pacquiao instead of the 10-6 score that a three-knockdown round normally should get. Had he made it 10-6, Pacquiao would be a split-decision winner.

Back on the current topic; Defense doesn't take the belt away from the Champ kids.

LINQ is right.
Doesn't this statistics tells it all?

I'm a Pac fan and thought Marquez shaded it but it wasn't a travesty.

Mixed feelings.

**TTime** · 02-19-2012, 06:42 PM

Not a shock though.

this fight was pretty even, so when it goes to decision its always gong to be the agressor in the rounds (pacman) the guy with the most landed (pacman) that ends up with the win.

The fight that had me losing faith (the three judges have since been suspended) was the Paul Williams vs Erislandry Lara fight. Lara dominated Williams and hit him at will yet somehow the judges gave the decision to Williams. That was a horrible fix type fight.
