"Boxing fans are so used to this kind of garbage. Questionable judging on three fights in two days over one weekend reinforces the narrative that's a major contributing factor in what turned the sport of kings into something that's now in the other sports' column on major web sites. It's been a long, steady decline downward and the expectations of boxing fans don't preclude nights like last night. Boxing fans expect that decisions like that are somewhat routine."

nah youre wrong, the genius's on nsb think it was a fair result. they are right and everyone else in the real world calling it a fix is wrong and DKSAB. it doesnt matter that pacquiao landed twice as many punches and nearly stopped him in round 9, it was a fair result!!!!!!
Pacquaio's own trainer said the fight was close.
Why act like there isn't plenty of people who had it close or had Horn winning?

then why is mannys promoter and mannys coach saying on youtube the fight was very close and could have gone either way? Lmfao!y
But he said that he thought Pac won.
Yes he is saying that cause Arum is trying to legitimize a rematch.
many of the rounds seemed to be ending early or late
I didn't time it, but maybe just the clock on screen wasn't in sync with the round timer
I had a feeling this was the case
Not 100% sure though
Horn won round 1, 5, and 10
You can make a argument for 12 but he ate the bigger shots that round. No way anyone who actually saw the whole fight can give horn a draw or win to horn or boxing ain't for them.
then why are mannys promoter and coach saying the fight was very close and could have gone either way? Are they both in on the scam? I thought arum and roach were saints and haymon and floyd were the snakes?
They're all in on it, we were duped for another PAC trilogy and easy money.
PAC won but its not fair on PACs legacy in that people Will say he lost such and such amount of times, therefore so and so must be better. Not that there is anything wrong in losing. Every fighter loses un less favourable decisions or not fighting who you supposed to or getting out right time. Its just another loss for PAC which shouldn't be.
Noit taking into consideration circumstances and being robbed
Dibella is salty and jealous his fighters didn't get to have their hands on Pacquaio. Too late now. The torch has already been passed.
A new star is born.
but why did manny say he has to respect the decision of the judges like a scam artist? when floyd clearly beat manny he said he thought he won the fight! but when he gets robbed against horn he says he has to respect the judges hahah! makes me think manny is in on this scam! now he gets another easy fight for another 10 million and he can duck crawford for another year....
Easy to answer because of all the sh*t he got for saying that after the Floyd fight, same with Bradley. The public does not handle lack of graciousness well, especially in this sport. Duck Crawford? LMFAO. Listen man if you have an agenda just say so but ducking Crawford? GTFOH. One minute its Manny does whatever Bob tells him to do and the next it's Manny is ducking. Which one is it? Can't be both. Pacquaio is done, much like Floyd after two decades in the sport they can fight the ring girls for all I care, they did what they had to in their primes. At this stage of the game they should fight whoever the hell they want and if people pay for it then so be it, if they don't so be it...but to sit up here saying a 38 year old boxer with 11 titles to his name and countless HOF's on his resume is ducking anyone is hilariously ludicrous.
Thurman is the only guy at 140-147 doing it right. Crawford is fighting Indongo instead of Garcia, Broner, Thurman, Spence....the guys he should be calling out but isn't pushing for those fights...but Pacquaio is the one ducking..LMFAO. Stop trying to give Terrence at the cost of a living legend, tell that boy to go make his own legacy which he has the skill and prime to do so but isn't chasing.
then why are mannys promoter and coach saying the fight was very close and could have gone either way? Are they both in on the scam? I thought arum and roach were saints and haymon and floyd were the snakes?
Arum just became Horn's co-promoter. Remember Bradley 1? He needed Pacquaio to sign an extension, thus he ripped the title from him so he can't exercise a rematch without Arum involved. This was the last fight on his extension, guess what now? He has to sign again or no rematch. Wtf else is Roach going to say? His fighter is over the hill, hell I called him over the hill before the fight even started, Manny isn't the fighter of old but to say he clearly lost to Horn is bullshht. Arum is a snake, Haymon is a snake, Floyd is a snake, its boxing its been corrupt and will stay corrupt because people need to make their money.
"Questionable judging on three fights in two days"
Whats the 3rd fight that was a robbery that he's talking about? Horn beating Manny, check. Clark beating Golub, check. Whats the the other one?
Prob how wide the Easter scorecards were. Two judges had him winning all 12 rounds of a tough fight.
If u plan on leaving Top Rank just know u leaving with a L.
Loss or Lawsuit.
Luckily, Mikey made it out
Rigo made it out
Floyd made it out. Maybe so other good fighters as well.
I know 4 a fact he robbed De LA Hoya.
Chavez Jr.
Cotto
Apollo was saved by the bell.
Did anyone notice the last rnd also ended 10 seconds early ?
many of the rounds seemed to be ending early or late
I didn't time it, but maybe just the clock on screen wasn't in sync with the round timer
Last month: Dibella and PBC are great for boxing!
Today: Dibella doesn't know sh*t about boxing.
There is no argument for a Horn win. ZERO. Pacquaio looked troubling before the fight even started but even with that mediocre performance it was a CLEAR as day win he got jacked on. Arum needed ESPN to be the focal point of the world last night to justify his deal with them and well hell he delivered it at the cost of a living legend. This is why I free stream all fights now even if they are on basic tv, fk your ratings..we need the sport fixed badly.
I agree completely with DiBella “There’s no way on God’s earth that a rational person who knew anything about boxing could have scored the fight for Horn,” DiBella told Sports Illustrated. “He showed great heart but landed fewer than eight punches a round.”
