    horn v pacquiao wasnt close...

    What did some of you guys watch? 'A close fight' 'not a robbery' 'could have gone either way', really? To me it looked like horns shots werent landing. Teddy atlas called the fight correctly.

    The old favourite 'you cant trust compubox' is coming out, yeah maybe its not going to be 100 percent accurate but what i saw on screen matched up pretty well with the numbers, pacquiao was landing and horn wasnt so its not a huge shock that they had him landing 182-92.

    I think just because pacquiao isnt a defensive fighter, people dont pay so much attention to the punches that he avoids, when they are both throwing combos. They just see both guys throwing punches and think wow this is a war, horns giving as good as he gets.

    And maybe in peoples minds they expected it to be so one sided that when horn had the slightest bit of success they gave him credit for it.

    Lets just call it what it was, a robbery. And its another night of controversy, after the easter 120-108 scorecards and the ward low blows. Just seems as if its now an accepted part of the sport, unless a fight was a chavez canelo style whooping its like 'oh well fight could have gone either way' **** off could it lol. the 117-111 judge should be thrown out of the sport. 117-111 in a favour of a guy who got outlanded by 182-92? 115-113 is bad enough lol

    Just accept hat people legitimately thought Horn did well. I had him winning 3 or 4 of the first five. I didn't score every round and maybe PAC deserved it 7-5 but it was a close fight. Horn did better than Bradley and Vargas

        i cant accept people scoring it for horn though lol. horn did well in the sense that he surpassed the extremely low expectations anyone had of him.

          watch the damn fight lol, he got outlanded by 90 odd punches. The commentary team were about the only sane ones in calling the fight. How can you land double the shots and not win clearly? or is it a compubox conspiracy as usual

            I'm just not seeing these extra 90 punches for PAC, I though that he got outlander in many of the rounds and basically fought in cruise control. He was missing way more of his left hands than he should have too

              Why were you watching the ESPN broadcast when you're supposed to be from UK?

              Atlas and the biased ESPN broadcast influenced a lot of fools in to thinking it was a robbery. Watch the first 6 rounds again Horn won 4 or 5.

                  I heard the punch stats had Pacquiao landing double what Horn did through the first 4 rounds. WTF how is that possible?
