well i'm sure more than 1 percent thought manny won but i don't really care if anybody but me thought manny won since i don't subscribe to the appeal to popularity fallacy. manny deserved to win since he landed the much cleaner punches in 7 rounds, had the much better defense as floyd struggeld to land clean, and forced floyd to hold and bend over illegally which made him the ring general since floyd wouldn't have done that if he was in control. just because lots of people don't know how to score doesn't mean I don't. i'm sure the fight will be viewed differently over time as people go back and watch it and realize wait a minute pac is getting the better of it, but the initial buzz and group think mentality is still strong. In the future people wont be using floyd's reputation as a great boxer in favoring him in the scoring. they will just score what happened and that was pac landing better punches and this is boxing so until they change that part of scoring i don't see why floyd deserves to win? he didn't get beat up that bad? is that a scoring criteira? pac didn't fight the way you wanted him to? is that a scoring criteria?
Right yes I understand that in your deluded mind you think that all the above actually happened. You don't need to explain this to me everyone is aware about the warped reality you have made for yourself.
What I'm telling you is you can't call a decision controversial if there was no controversy surrounding the fight.
An extremely low amount of people think Pacquaio won the fight, man. The fact you think that "one day this will change" is really, really, really sad.
:lol1:
You do know to say something was controversial it has to have caused controversy amongst more than 1% of people right?

so a controversial win over pac where pac landed the much cleaner punches is a better win then marquez ko'ing pac cold? i might disagree sir!

I agree JMMs way of victory was better but I don't think he is a front runner for FOTD. Pacs already beat him twice, JMM also only has wins over b level opposition outside of the great Pacman.
Btw, I forgot to mention Bradley, he has to be up there.
Pacquiao: 9-2 this decade, with probably the best all round resume of any fighter.
Mayweather: 9-0. The 0 is probably important to some but Mayweather's resume is very mix and match but the Pac win is the single best win this decade.
So the two men who have been so intertwined for so long are pretty much the best answers...so far.
Garcia and Canelo could be, if they have the fights they need to have. GGG is in for a pretty good shout with a couple more top middleweight wins and a title or 2 at 168.
Khan is 9-3 with some absolute world class wins but also 2 really hard core KO wins. One came against a middleweight so there's that but the Garcia win, in a fight Khan was heavily favoured to win must still sting. A rematch and then an extended title run is needed.
Oh and let's not sleep on Fury or AJ. Fury is already THE MAN and depending on how this whole drugs thing goes, plus the rematch, he could def be in with a shout.

^^ this, rg should be ahead by a few miles atm and there's only 3 years left before this decade is over
I forgot hes 45-0 right now he can reach 50-0 soon...I know that record is not the record going undefeated but RG has no draws like others.
Damn it why people keep sleeping on RG? about to be four weight champ...Lineal...gots P4P fighter on his resume...his previous opponents went on to win world titles ( unified too )...and are current top 5-10 in their respective weights...Brian Viloria is more than likely going into the HOF...Estrada is another unfified champion headed there too...Yagashi was lineal and just dropped down to 108 to win the IBF (three weight champion) : WBA,WBC,IBF...another HOF candidate for sure....you guys are not fans of the sport...I keep going theres more guys that are not as prominent but have made moves in Chocolatitos resume...but hey you boxrec warrior fail to add perspective when you see the losses on there records...If Spence,Thurman,Vargas,Garcia all fought each other back to back.....trust they have a few L's too...thats how it is in the Flyweight division -- no money on turneups.

Crawford has the most potential right now out of the welters...Lineal in two weights and has more room to grow into 147...has already headlined on PPV thats something these other fighters have not accomplished he even beat Ward to reach PPV.
Canelo: dont laugh at the notion...you know what he has accomplished so far at such a young age.....but if he beats GGG its a wrap.
