    why is pacquiao ranked p4p 1 when the majority of people think marquez won?

    doesnt make sense to me.

    it's sad how people question whether marquez is even a legend or ATG yet hadidly call pacquiao top 50 atg because of the judges score card.

      where'd you pull up 'majority', did you make a poll or something? press row was split evenly 50-50.

        ok i guess the point was, marquez isnt getting the credit pacquiao does for a fight many think he won.

        i saw threads yesterday "is marquez a legend" "is marquez an atg" and people saying hell no! that's embaressing.

        these same people have pacquiao top 50 atg.

          Marquez did win...

          And pac being best p4p is just an opinion....I personally don't think he is...pac is a great fighter don't get me wrong but to call him best p4p right now idk...

          He beat a declining Erik Morales and got beat by Marquez even though he's like 6 yrs older then pac..

            the majority don't, there was a poll, it was a close poll with Pacquiao winning.

            Just because the fight was close doesn't mean it was a robbery. It was a SD. They landed the same amount of punches, staggered each other multiple times. MARQUEZ was only one who actually got hurt, Pacquiao recovered in seconds.

            1 point difference, he scored a KD. Nothing unfair about that if they landed almost the same amount.

                    Isn't gonna change nothing. Although, most people thought JMM won...The decisions in the past like Holyfield/ Lewis and Whitaker/ JLR didn't change. We'll just have to live with it
