The contradiction of HBO

[D4thincarnation]

By favoring quality over quantity in one fight and quantity over quality in another.

You do realise Lara landed more punches than Williams and more power punches than Williams.

So did Marquez in the second fight against Pacquiao.

this thread needs to get bumped because if its relevance to how bias HBO is.

By favoring quality over quantity in one fight and quantity over quality in another.

if you talking about Pac vs Marquez 2 and 3:

Pac vs Marquez 2: there was a knockdown, if there were no knockdown even Pac won that round on all judges (10-9), Marquez will still win that fight coz he landed more shots.

Pac vs Marquez 3: No knock down and Pac landed more shots, thats why won the fight...

but in case of Lederman, he always says that he favor the aggressive fighter when the round is so close...

[D4thincarnation]

But you still don't agree that HBO analysts contradict themselves?

Where is the contradiction?

So did Marquez in the second fight against Pacquiao.

but Pac knockdown Marquez which changes the outcome... If Pac only win that round 10-9 on all juges, Marquez will win that fight.

Nope Manny would've still won the fight by MD

Nope it would have been a draw.

115-113, 112-116, 114-114. With a slight edge to Marquez in the judges scores

[fceeviper]

The HBO crew likes to talk about the guy who throws more punches wins a close fight. I'll use Williams-Lara as an example, who HBO crew UNANIMOUSLY agreed Lara was robbed EVEN though Williams threw way more punches and the total punches landed were close


Total Punches Thrown

Williams - 1047
Lara - 530


Pacqauio - 578
Marquez - 436


Williams like Pacquiao moved forward most of that fight yet in the Williams fight. HBO UNANIMOUSLY agreed the fighter in Williams-Lara who back peddled more and threw less punches outboxing the other won...yet in the Pac-JMM 3 fight they contradict their selves says the fighter who throws more punches in a close fight should win....


WTF

Plus 1.

[SplitSecond]

So did Marquez in the second fight against Pacquiao.

probabley thanks to the sixth(or 5th)
pacquiao won that fight too, people really just can't score worth sht though, that's why it's 50/50

regardless, the kd made a huge difference
