How the hell you called this a robbery!

lol if you really know how to score the fight. You score it base on punches landed on both fighters. Based on what I see in this videos. Pac clearly won round 2, 3, 4 while round 1 it was close that can go either way and Marquez won the round 5.

I was reading most of the thread until I read the bolded part above....

It had become clear to me that TS doesn't know what he's talking about

this isn't the amateurs

Pacquiao fans, stop it. Just stop it already.

Your boy won, be happy with the "official" decision and move on.

The fact that you're all still going to such dramatic lengths, and relying on this slow motion footage (which is clearly biased, from an editing perspective) indicates that you yourselves aren't that comfortable with the official decision.

I totaly agree. It's funny about the leingth they will go I seen this slow mo video also the foot stomp one but it's all one sided footage. So my next question if he won why wold he want a rematch. Look at the end of the fight manny looked like a kid that got his A$$ handed to him

And how do you supposed to score the fight if you don't base on punch? Base on how the fighter keep back pedaling, waiting for his opponent to punch first, ring generalship, cutting off the ring, effective punches when you didn't actually landed a single punch? lol

Bob Arum wanted a rematch. Not Pac (who is indifferent).. Bob is also JMM's promoter.. If he wasnt in JMM's promoter, I wouldnt think he would even think about JMM now, and you would have then found a way to complain why Pac is not giving him a rematch...

Round 6 is up. Another ass whopping from Pacquiao.

The abecedarian threadstarter hasn't become acquainted with all of the judging criteria yet. Let's introduce him to the concepts of 'effective aggression' and 'ring generalship'.

This post is a great example of effective aggression. Unlike what Pac did against JMM.

Fights don't happen in slow motion they happen in real time! So cut it out with the slow mo stuff because it's getting tiresome. All I'll say is this, Pacquiao landed more punches to the head while Marquez landed more punches to the body. People are are getting hung up on all the headshots Pacquiao landed but not giving Marquez credit for his exceptional body work. There were times in the fight were Pacquiao would land on Marquez's face and Marquez would land one or two body shots in return.

After watching the fight again I'd say it was a a draw/slight win for Marquez but not quite a robbery. 8 rounds to 4 for Pacquiao is just ludicrous.

From this thread we can draw two conclusions:

a) We have to go back and judge all fights from the past using 5x slo-mo technology. ****** ancient judges, trying to judge without the appropriate technology!!!!

b) Maybe judges are picked not because they know how to judge, but because they have special 5x slo-mo vision that allows them to score differently from over 70% of boxing fans who didn't see Pac winning it.

Fight was close. DEFINITELY NOT A robbery. Heres a good example of how Mexicans judge a fight, look at the scoring for the Angulo-Kirkland before Angulo was dropped. Awful. You cant score a fight like that, if a round is close, you automatically give it to your fighter? Hell no...
