    A draw was a fair decision, I don’t see the outrage or the cry of robbery.

    People are just too nostalgic and wanted Pacquiao to win so bad, so they’ll claim robbery. No robbery here. It was a close and competitive fight.
    Well most people think it was a robbery.

        This is one of the reasons that I don't rank Floyd's perfect record ahead of Manny's like a lot of people.

        They are close in status, to me

        Manny's been robbed probably 4x or more in his career.

        That's what happens when you don't get to fight in your home country all the time.

        If Manny only fought who he wanted to fight, when he wanted to fight them, in the Phillippines, he'd probably be undefeated, too,.

        You have to take all of that into account

          Man the whole Pacquiao debate is never gonna die, people are still arguing like it happened yesterday. Honestly half these “experts” change their tune depending on the hype. If you really wanna settle stuff like that, live stats and live odds during the fight tell you way more than biased reactions. I’ve been following fights through the Stake app lately — grabbed it at https://stake-canada.com/app/ where the official Android/iOS download is, and it shows live betting swings in real time, which kinda exposes what’s actually happening. Makes the whole “he clearly won” talk way less emotional and way more grounded.

              Pac's peeps can't afford to see their hero
              To add, Pac's resume is flimsy AF
              If a challenger wants that title, They should GO and take it

              What's next, champs helping out with training techniques
              Make sure they are booked into the best hotels
