Comments Thread For: Donaire: Pacquiao-Ugas Was Close, Decision Could Have Gone Either Way

[AdonisCreed]

Nonito Donaire is just trying to cover for his countrymen. He knows that wasn't a close fight. Ugas is just a bad style matchup for Pacquiao, Ugas has size and skill and the youth advantage. Pacquiao just needs to retire. Pacquiao has nothing left to prove and needs to exit before he gets even more damaged. Pacquiao might be one of those fighters who just doesn't know when to hang it up. Hopkins had to get knocked out of the ring before he got the message lol

7-5 or 8-4 type of fight.....thought pac won rounds more so because Ugas would do nothing at all, rather than pac doing anything significant

Pac vs Ugas Connected punches as I saw it:

1 Pac 15 Ugas 6
2 Pac 15 Ugas 16
3 Pac 31 Ugas 12
4 Pac 19 Ugas 12
5 Pac 27 Ugas 15
6 Pac 17 Ugas 11
7 Pac 29 Ugas 17
8 Pac 27 Ugas 19
9 Pac 21 Ugas 12
10 Pac 23 Ugas 18
11 Pac 21 Ugas 13
12 Pac 18 Ugas 20

Rd 12 and rd 9 for me were inaccurate punch counts becuase the telecast cut out and interrupted the feed I was watching so I could see any of the following: 10 - 2 Pacquiao, 9 - 3 Pacquiao, 8 - 4 Pacquiao< UNBIASED

I don’t even know where to begin with this….

Pacquiao lost 7-5. I can see 8-4.

But I can’t see Pacquiao as the winner. It was close but clear.

Pacquiao needed to try just a little harder, push a little more and he could have won.

I think Pacquiao should have gone all out at least in the 11th or 12th. That would have won him the fight.

He got hit with a bunch of right hands that if you put them together in a highlight, it will make him look bad. In reality Ugas was not that active, never landed any 3-4 punch combinations, and looked like rounds could have been stolen from him by Pacquiao if he had just pushed himself a bit more. Maybe steal the last 30 seconds of a round.

Wasn't a blow out but clear winner. I had 8-4 but 7-5 at worst for Ugas. Donaire is biased but that's perfectly fine, Ugas was better that night.

Casimero > Donaire

With some of the judging in boxing, you can make a case for either guy. I believe Ugas won, but in some fights with "the politics" involved, they could have favored Pac-that's the way boxing is. If they declared Pac the winner it wouldn't have shocked me just because of all the poor judging I have seen.

lol-his "white boy" comments came back to retire his dusty old ass.

Watching the fight, it was a stretch to even have Pacquiao winning 3-4 rounds.

I had it 9-3
