Not all Filipinos are biased.
I'm a big fan of both PACQUIAO and MARQUEZ.
So I will congratulate MARQUEZ and his fans for winning this fight.
I still believe that Pac can beat May

Mabuhay si Juan Manuel Marquez!

I'm still a big fan of BOTH, PACQUIAO and MARQUEZ
maybe the Pacman is not in the right mood during the fight. There's a lot of pressure and distractions. I love my country, but if I have to choose between righteousness or nationalism, I'll choose righteousness.

I did boo him too after watching it LIVE with my friends, me with fellow Filipinos started shouting "BOO!!" and "LUTO!". But we managed to download a copy and watched it again and surprised that I was wrong. I looked like Marquez got the best of Manny but if you watch it over and over carefully and objectively you may find who won. This fight was close but not as close as the second one. But thanks for your opinion.

You nailed it Chups! Before the fight started I thought Pacquiao would slaughter Marquez saying "it's a different Pacquiao now" but to my surprise it's also a "different Marquez" now.
I expected Pacquiao to easily dispose Marquez, can't blame me after watching Pac brutalize Margarito and Cotto.
Marquez has improved, and I'm a big fan of Marquez. I feel sorry for his loss and i really feel how devastated he was. I expected a lot from Pac and belittled JMM that's it.
