no bias here. I had JMM winning when I watched it live, let's see it again without all the tension and adrenaline rush. haha
round 1: 10-9 Pacquiao , Not much action but Manny tagged JMM more, with more solid shots.
round 2: 10-9 JMM, solid counter punching although not much action, landed cleaner blows than Pacquiao
round 3: 10-9 JMM, Countering Pacquiao every chance he gets, Pacquiao looks a bit confused
round 4: 10-9 Pacquiao, Manny picking up the pace, tagging JMM with solid shots, although JMM landed a nice right hand that popped Manny's head at the end of the round
round 5: 10-9 JMM, Manny's head was target practice for the right hand of Marquez this round
round 6: 10-10 Draw, when Marquez hits solid, Pacquiao returns with another close combo. too close to call this round, nice action in this round
round 7: 10-10 ,again too close to call. Pacquiao was getting tagged with right hands but landing some blazing combos on JMM, another even round
round 8: 10-9 Pacquiao, By just a frickin inch, he landed very slightly more significant shots and combos this round, and just the more effective aggressor this round
round 9: 10-9 Marquez, damn nice action packed round. Pac more the aggressor with f*ckin fast combos, but not hitting marquez much, Marquez landed more solid combos this round
round 10: 10-9 Pacquiao, Marquez too conservative this round. Manny tagged him with good shots in his fast combos,
round 11: 10-9 Pacquiao, Marquez was doing almost nothing but he did land a solid 1-2 on Pacquiao at the end of the round, but manny was dominating this round with combos that blitzed JMM
round 12: 10-9 Pacquiao, another Pacquiao round. JMM landed a couple of solid shots.. could of done more, but he didn't, I don't know if it's because of what nacho saying that he was winning and he got it in the bag and he didn't wanna take anymore risks, or was he gassed?. Pacquiao landed more, and landed solid shots
116-114 Pacquiao.
damn? maybe because of so much expectation from Pacquiao and so much underestimating of Marquez that we overlooked the fight?
very close. Gotta give it to Pacquiao though..

Round 1: Marquez. Neither guy did much, it was more of a feel out round, but both landed some punches, nothing too effective at all. I thought Marquez boxed well and avoided Pac nice in that round. Either way wouldn't have bothered me.
Round 2: Marquez. Counter punched Pac well, Manny still unable to get much going. Marquez landed the cleaner punches.
Round 3: Pacquiao. Manny landed some nice shots in the third and started to open I thought. He tagged Marquez more and his speed started showing up a bit.
Round 4: Pacquiao. Marquez hit Manny clean a few times, but Manny landed the more telling punches, and started to pick it up again. After 4 rounds, I have it 38-38.
Round 5: Marquez. His best round of the fight, landed counters at will. Made Pac look VERY frustrated.
Round 6: Pacquiao. Close round, could have gone either way, but I thought Pacquiao landed the harder shots and landed a couple more punches. Still, Marquez countered Manny nicely.
Round 7: Marquez. CLose round again, but I thought Marquez just got his punches off more than Pac, and countered anytime that Pac threw anything. Could have gone either way.
Round 8: Pacquiao. Close round again, but Manny landed some really clean shots and looked physically stronger in round. Close round, but I'd give it to Manny. After 8, I have it 76-76.
Round 9: Marquez. Pac steeped the pace, but many of his punches didn't land on Juan. Marquez countered again nicely, and traded with Pac. Marquez landed the cleaner punches.
Round 10: Pacquiao. Marquez didn't do much this round, and Manny stepped up and landed cleaner shots.
Round 11: Marquez. Close round I thought, Juan still hit Manny with counters and much more what Manny was throwing wasn't doing much that round. After 11, I have it 105-104 Marquez.
Round 12: Pacquiao. Marquez WAY WAY WAY too conservative this round in a close fight. Manny didn't do much either, but was the main agressor this round.
I had the fight 114-114 a draw. COuld have gone either way. I thought 116-112 was too wide. I can't see anyone having it 8 rounds to 4, like Lederman and one of the judges.
