Either way, JMM couldn't do that. He fights Pacquiao so tough because he DOESN'T do that. Steward was just thinking he's gotta emphatically win the championship rounds if he wants to get the decision. Also the HBO guys, not just Lederman, were feeling that Pacquiao was winning. Why I don't know, I had Marquez clearly ahead, but they were operating under the assumption that Marquez was behind.

hbo sounded so desperate trying to convince people that cash cow manny won. they know they have to blow him off because arum could go to showtime again. jmm won. you dont have to come forward to be effective. you dont have to aggressive to win. marquez won 8-4 on my card. landed all the clean power shots. made pac miss all night.
you guys should watch the tv azteca mexican broadcast. they tkold it like it was screaming roberry at the decision. even done a show called robo en las vegas with juan manuel on the show. its available on youtube.

More activity from JMM to outwork Pac. I gave the 12th round to Pac. Not sure about the 11th, i think i gave it to JMM. Overall, it was a back and forth ever round. Pac winning this round, then JMM the next round.
Yeah, a lot of people don't know Pac can counter punch. Not as great as Marquez, but he can do it against him.
The second he attempts to come forward , whether being defensive or not, Manny is destroying him.
I don't think most of you know how incredibly hard it is for a fighter like JMM who has no business at that weight, has no physical advantages on Manny and is literally dancing on the ledge of a 100 story building when he fights Manny because one false move and he's asleep.
The very notion that JMM went 12 rounds with Manny 3 times and in the opinion of many won 2 out of 3 and then went 12 rounds with Mayweather is simply amazing.
I used to rank the 3 great LW of Mexico like this: #1 Barrera, #2 Morales and #3 JMM. Now it's easy to see JMM is the greatest of those 3. We might never see another trio of fighters like them ever, the way we got to see Leonard, Hearns and Hagler here in the U.S.

Originally posted by PACsmash View PostDon't act dumb u didn't say it but u posted it up meaning U agree with it. U wouldn't post something up if u don't agree. Now tell me where did I ever compare fighters faces and say the one with the less damage won?
You shouldn't debate when you're claiming people say something that they didn't. Again I never said Pacman didn't land. I said compubox is simply humans pushing bottons when he believes something lands.
It does not matter what I agree with. Compubox is a man pushing bottons on what he percieves, period.
