    I barely remember the Norwood fight and I've only seen it once like 3 or 4 years ago.

    As for the John fight, it was far from a robbery. In fact, all this robbery rubbish which has been pushed by the boxing media is deceitful. There was only one American journalist at the fight...possibly the only western journalist around at ringside. He scored the fight for John and is reportedly in line with most other journalists present: i.e. it was a win for John although the fight was somewhat close.

    Most of the idiotic posters on here who claim it was a robbery probably haven't even watched the fight. JMM was getting really desperate and landed low shots, ended up with 2 point deductions, now in a competitive fight, which everyone agrees it was, by what margins is a guy supposed to have been robbed if he had already lost 2 points? Are we to believe John only won 3 or 4 rounds?

    The JMM being robbed myth has sprung up around pretty much every fight he's lost. The first Pac fight for instance should have been a win for Pac because one of the judges scored the opening round incorrectly so ended up with a draw lol yet it's JMMs camp and fans that complained. The second fight was a pretty obvious victory for Pac.

    Heck, theres idiots on here who even claim the Bradley fight was a robbery. Apart from the Bradley fight, you could say JMM has lost some close decisions but no robberies in reality.

    I feel he won the 3rd Pac fight but again, it was close enough to be considered for Pac.

          Norwood, and John fight were clear as day robberies.

          All Pac fights were close, but felt the 3rd fight was a clear Marquez victory and should have been given the decision.

            I consider one of the Pac fights a real robbery, but I am not here to discuss it in detail with you because this is an obvious troll thread and you purposely left that out of your OP KNOWING that would surface here so you can then go on your little planned tirade, but save it, I only came to say something to larryx.

            Are you baiting here or are you really doing a 180 thinking we won't remember that you also said you scored one of the first 3 fights for JMM on here before?

            You don't have to concede it's a robbery, but don't act like it's ridiculous to say it was.

            If you are referring to a similar statement I said about this in a Ward related thread, the accurate statement is "not ALL close fights are robberies".

            Of course a close fight isn't necessarily a robbery, but it can be.

            Even though I scored the Kovalev/Ward fight for Kovalev, I disagree with calling that a robbery, I could see the cards going all 3 ways.

            However, JMM definitely beat Pac clearly to me before the 4th fight, and just because it was close and not a clear robbery doesn't make it less of a robbery in my eyes.

            What does this have to do with anything here?

            I'll help you with that one: nothing.

            Who cares though?

            Since when do you have such a problem with JMM?

            I am 99.9% sure you were having fun with the KO thread and RBR thread post fight like allll the rest of us around here.

            Don't go switching up on us late larryx, you gotta go down with the Mayweather Mafia 100% to the grave, and part of that is also being pro JMM.

              Have yet to watch the Chris John fight, but Marquez couldn't land **** clean on Norwood, and Norwood was nearly always there with the defensive move and a sharp counter; razor close fight, though.

              The 4 Pacquiao fights will always be there, but at least Marquez was able to lay out Pacquiao in the final one to take away the chance of anyone shorting him.

                Some were close, very close but the third fight with Manny was the worst off memory. No way did Manny win that fight.
                I think I had John winning actually but its been years since I watched it.

                    Some fighters just never get the win in a close fight. JMM is one of them.

                      Same with norwood and Pac 2-3

                      Marquez might be the greatest mexican fighter ever to lace em up.
                      That was not a robbery. At all. Pac won that. And JMM coughed up part 3 late. He had that fight.
