Why Wasn't The Decision For Pacquiao - Marquez I Ever Overturned ?

[MOREBASS]

Just out of curiosity, one of the judges publicly acknowledged that he miscalculated the first round of the fight, so why wasn't anything ever done about it ?

because after the first round Marquez put on a boxing clinic.

I always wondered the same thing, plenty of other fight decisions have been overturned after the fight has ended.....
The one that comes to mind first is the Rocky Juarez/Barrera fight where it was announced as a draw, then after they were in their locker rooms, the ref came to Juarez and told him it was calculated wrong and Barrera won by SD

yep...murad's agenda was getting fights with all the top guns asap...getting into a legal hassle would have been counterproductive to his plan..


look at the first morales fight, in an effort to get the match signed asap, he went ahead and waived pac's option to choose his gloves of choice...
