Pacquiao - Marquez II Rerun on HBO now

I hate being indecisive and getting in the habit of calling rounds even, but in fights such as this I think it is imperative to call the really close rounds a draw and let the decisive rounds truly decide the fight so there is no dispute. For example, if fighter A easily wins round 1 but fighter 2 barely "wins" round 2, maybe due to being the title holder or throwing one extra punch, is that two round stretch really even in the fans' eyes? I dont think so. With that said, hell of a fight even the second time around.

I saw the rerun tonight, this time w/ the sound off, and I ended up w/ the same exact scorecard. 115-113 for JMM! I don't have my original scorecard anymore. I wonder if I scored the rounds exactly the way I had it last week, hmm. Anyway, there were some tough rounds to score, no "funny smellin" judges on this one, imho. I scored the following: 1 pac 2 Marquez 3 Pac 10-8 4 Pac 5 even 6 Marquez 7 Pac 8 Marquez 9 Even 10 Pac 11 Marquez 12 Marquez Pac Wins.

I watched the re-run...and here's my unbiased score card: JMM winning rounds: 2, 6, 7, 8, 11 & 12 PAC winning rounds: 1, 3, 4, 5, 9, 10 PAC winning by 1 point due to 10-8 score in rnd 3 knockdown: 114-113

btw some people have this fight on a cd :boxing:

when i first watched the fight,i decided to have a scoring system that whenever i couldnt tell who won the round i would give a point to marquez. in the end i had it that pacquiao won by 1 point i gave the first round to marquez, but rewatching it... pac won that round. that 12th round was also won by pacquiao. so now im wondering how did people have marquez win?

Rd 4 to Pac

That knockdown was nasty 10-8 Pac...if we go JMM for rd 1 its tied at 28

didnt catch the entire round. JMM for rd 2 though. He had some nice left hooks in this round
