Comments Thread For: Pacquiao Decisions Marquez, Highly Controversial

[ßringer]

How can you score the 12th round for Pacquiao? He literally landed nothing. Not that Marquez did much himself, but the first 2 and a half minutes were super close. In the final 30 seconds after Pacquiao got his mouthpiece put back in, he attempted to trap Marquez on the ropes with a flurry.

A flurry which Marquez ducked and slipped every bit of.

Round 12 was even.

@TheFightSource asked manny if he was disappointed in self for not executing fight plan. He actually answered, said no, and blamed sore feet

lmao...now i want ppl to talk down manny for not owning up to his asswhooping. this is supposedly the greatest fighter in thw world and he cant even admit how bad he looked because of his fascination on using cramping as an excuse. smh...

Marquez without a doubt won his first bout with Pac..

..regardless of how the judges saw the fight....Sorry JMM, the judges are idiots..but what makes it so sweet is that, Pac is so damn popular that even if he lost the fight..he is still the winner at the end of the night...that;s for a ll the Pac haters...you all got owned MOTHA FUQKERs...keep hating!!! hats of to JMM..Part $4 coming soon...Guerra para Cinco de Mayo!!!!

I don't like Floyd, he cheated against JMM and completely outweighed him, and yeah for me that was a terrible win, but this win of Pac against Marquez isn't helping Manny at all.

What are you talking about, man? It helps Manny get his shot at Floyd. Maybe Floyd is getting over his pacphobia. Maybe it was Manny's plan all along.

Scoring on press row ran the gamut. Draw. Marquez by a couple. Marquez by a few. Very few people I talked to scored it for @MannyPacquiao

" In the pantheon of disgraceful decisions in the history of boxing this one will
go down as one of the most notorious. Juan Manuel Marquez, at the age of 38,
has just seen his best performance in the ring to comprehensively out box, out
think, out work, and out hustle Manny Pacquiao over 12 rounds stolen from him
by three judges who have brought shame to the sport. It was an historic
performance. It should have resulted in a unanimous decision in favour of Juan
Manuel Marquez. Instead he lost and so did the sport of boxing.,,,, "

As a fellow Filipino, thank you again Manny Pacquiao for representing the Philippines in boxing, thank you for another night of action.

I respect Pacquiao for all that he has done.

BUT as a boxing fan.. damn. It's either boxer/counter punchers are pacquiao's kryptonite.

or Manny it starting to go downhill.

Either way, if the Pacquiao that fought Marquez today fought Mayweather.

He may get stopped.

My hats off to Juan Manuel Marquez. You clearly won the fight..

I respect them both. But just gotta tell it how it is.

Much respect to you. That's how I see it too.

one things for sure *******s arent here bloating how pac scored a great victory cuz um he got SCHOOLED!!

Did people really think JMM would get a decision in las Vegas even if he deserved it in a Paq fight? There is a lot riding on a Paq win and baring a KO he would alway get the decision in this fight, I haven't seen this fight so cannot judge but I didn't expect a JMM UD.

One-sided = schooled, robbery, etc.

This fight was by no means one-sided.
