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.
Pacquiao won. The Filipinos who think Marquez won are the same people who expects Pacquiao to demolish or dominate the opponent. They don't know how to score a fight and base their opinion on high expectations.
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.
I also thought that Marquez won the fight, but was a close one, until I saw a couple of article "Foot Stopper Trick by Juan Manuel Marquez" on FB and other site.
It showed how Marquez step on the foot of manny

I think the video showed marquez intentionally stepping on manny (at one point it seem to me that marquez foot was chasing manny's foot) though some might be an accident. What is important is some of this accident?! cost some points against manny as you can see on the video.
If this was not intentional then Marquez for me should have won hands down but if not then manny really deserve winning this match. Every points count!
I want a copy of the 1996 Olympics, Onyok Velasco is also landing punches but instead of giving the score to him it all went to his opponent. In the end he had a silver medal. It's not fair for us too..
