You don't call a close fight a robbery.

It was a close fight, not a robbery.

i dont mean it in a bad way. im just saying i think marquez would have won even bigger if it wasnt for the point taken away and the knockdown in the 12th. but atleast it was a great fight. i guess i used robbery in the wrong way but marquez did win.

1 judge did score it 114-111 for Marquez, a few people here also scored it for him.

hahahah thats funny marques by all accounts could of been stopped in the 12th lol hes lucky he made it out the fight without being koed.

Marquez was lucky the ref stepped in to give him a count because that could had easily been a BRUTAL stoppage if it would have continued.

i agree 100% the fight could have been stopped in the 12th. but marquez very easily won the first 4 rounds i think. with that jab. than of course the knockdown in the 4th. i dont like showtimes comentary though. i turned the sound off. HBO commentary is so much better. awsome ass fight though.

I just watched the III fight between Marquez and Vazquez Marquez was robbed. It was a knockdown in the 12th bc the ropes held him up. but Marquez jab was the focus of his offense. It was a great fight though. Its early in the year but that fight will be hard to beat for FOY. Maybe round of the year for vazquez. But Marquez was robbed. What does everyone else think i havnt seen any threads on this fight havnt been on in awhile.
i scored it 114-112
Rounds 1,2,3,4,7,9 for marquez
Ronds 5,6,8,11,12 for vazquez
I scored round 10 9-9 i thought marquez was winning the round when the point was taken away. and a 10-8 round for vazquez in the 12th.

how did you score it 114-112 with two knockdowns and a point deducted? and how did you give marquez the second round. If you give Vazquez one round you would have had him winning. I don't think robbery is the right word.
