I haven't seen the fight yet & will do it tonight/tomorrow.. But how did you score it bud?
Personally I had it 116-112 Pacquiao.
Look, Manny looks officially done from being a top level guy. That much is clear. I give Horn a lot of credit -- he was very game. Hustled his ass off. Showed big time heart after nearly getting blown away in the 9th. But yeah I thought Manny won it close...but clear.
Then again though, I am a Pacquiao fan, so I even wonder to myself if I'm finding close rounds that could go either way to give to him. I hate scoring fights for fighters that I'm big fans of because I fear letting bias creep in. But then I see guys like Lou Dibella and Lennox Lewis, who have more boxing knowledge in their fingernail lint than I have total, and seeing what they had to say only confirms what I already thought...and that's that Manny was the clear winner in a tough, hard fought battle.
So you think that you know how to score a fight better than guys like Lou DiBella and Lennox Lewis?
Dibella is a BAFOON (i know that first hand )
And Lewis is far from the poster boy of logic,anyone who follows his twitter account would know that (i like Lewis ive met him a feqw times up when he trained in the Poconos ) ive even corrected him more than once on things he was completely wrong on.
Lastly you dont use OTHER ppls views as evidence to judge fights you use common sense .

Well Manny should know better that he needed to get top refs & judges in his fights.. WTF is he doing fighting in Australia with novice refs & CJ Ross type judges.. I'm surprised that Old fart Arum couldn't get some good names either..

God I love this place. It's a utopia. It's a board where every b-scene poster has a supermodel girlfriend, earns a minimum 6 figures a year, and knows more about boxing than one of the five most powerful promoters in the sport and corrects an ATG heavyweight on the sport of boxing.

Yeah no doubt. And now Arum is saying that they're "morally and legally" obligated to return there for the rematch
What f**king bizarro ass world is this where Manny Pacquiao is the B-side to Jeff freaking Horn?? lmao
