Comments Thread For: Roach: Did They Hold The Marquez Decision Against Us?

They could've held that against them. Or it could be the Anti-Gay Marriage thing or they just wanted him to experience what it felt like to be Juan Manuel Marquez last November. It really doesn't matter to me if Bradley didn't kill this guy. All that matters is that Manny Pacquiao has taken another loss while my man Floyd Mayweather NEVER has to deal with situations like that. You guys can say what you want about the first Castillo fight but that's the only time anyone can say a fighter that Floyd faced got robbed. The judges didn't see it the way many people saw it. No different than what Marquez has endured for 2 fights. There is no doubt when Floyd laces up. No funny business at all. Just an old fashioned butt kicking delivered to the opponent. Manny would've been silenced and sent on his way if his team wasn't smart enough to play keep away.

Yeah but this has to ve the worst robbery ever

Really?? I only gave Bradley two rounds myself, but even so, I don't find this fight to be anywhere near the worst robbery ever. It wasn't even the worst robbery this year. What it was was the most shocking decision of the year and perhaps decade, but only because of fighters involved. Take that exact same fight with two other names, and NOBODY would have said a thing. A bad decision for sure, but not the EPIC robbery that is being claimed by the entire boxingverse.

Any honest Pacquiao fan has to admit that Manny, once again, did not look sharp at all for that entire fight, and this time it wasn't because he was fighting a hall of fame counter-puncher. Even the highlight reel was kind of lame. Pac flailed quite a bit and was unable to connect cleanly against a guy who wasn't particularly elusive. He landed better than Bradley, overall, but he didn't blow him out or embarrass him in any way (contrary to what the ever-biased HBO crew might have us think). Had the decision rightfully gone to Pacquiao, a lot of people would be on here talking about Pac's continued decline instead of declaring the end of boxing. I was greatly disappointed in Bradley's performance (he and Joel Diaz seemed content to just have him finish the fight IMO), but even more disappointed in Pac. I'm a Pacquiao fan and think he got a raw deal, but he could have and should have taken that outcome out of the judges hands.

now ducquiao knows how marquez felt at the decisons of all 3 fights especially the last one. ha ha ha ha . now bradley gets a very nice rematch check. great for bradley.

What a fool. I'm not on here 24/7, but every comment that I've seen you make is either Pro-Mayweather or Anti-Pacquiao. Very immature and childish.

Also ignorant-- close fights, as the three Pac/JMM bouts were, are not robberies. They're close fights. Last night was a robbery. Know the difference.

WTF...PAC was impressive besides not going for the kill. The championship rounds where he took off a bit was annoying. Yet he did more in the time he used than bradley can use in 5 mintues.

I personally no longer care for the decision. EVERYONE and their mothers know PAC won. The haters and non-boxing fans are the only ones I see enjoying this. BAD DECISION. I rather have JMM win pac vs jmm 3 than this blatant fix.

COMPETITIVE VS UTTER DISREGARD FOR THE SPORT are 2 different things!

As per many mexicans, JMM was stated as being very disappointed for PAC. This makes **** disappointing for everyone. Now we have a rematch, as a pac fan will not buy again, and will have to wait until possibly 2014 for a pac mayweather? We have been waiting for how ****ing long?

When i heard the first judges scoring i was kind of surprised to hear it was close, then after they scored it for Bradley i knew something was wrong. From my eyes i had Bradley winning only 2 rounds and I'm not a Pac fan. I'm gonna have to watch it again. Lmao tho. My father in law (who is FILIPINO) after the fight told me "now Pac knows how Marquez feels!" lol, I said "ya he does!" but honestly i felt bad for Pac especially seeing how humble he was after the fight. But hey.. that's boxing, it's not the first time it's gonna happen, and it's not the last!
