ESPN vs Box Nation (Pac-Horn) opinions

[Strategic1]

So I watched both ESPN and Box Nation feeds of the Pac-Horn fight.

Seems BoxNation was distributed by Top Rank to all people viewing the fight outside of the US.

After watching the fight multiple times... I feel Box Nation ****** and weren't objective. They don't know how to score fights.

ESPN had it right. They were a bit dramatic but they had it right.

8 rounds to 4 Pacquiao with some competitive rounds mixed in there.

Originally scored it 115-112.. after rewatching.. I now see 116-111.

What are your opinions? I'm particularly interested in those who see BoxNation all the time in the UK.

BoxNation analysis was so basic.. their commentary on strategy and tactics were poor.. it was as if casuals were calling the fight.

Top Rank commentary had it a draw.
Boxnation had Horn Winning.

ESPN were biased as hell. To be expected they wanted Pacquiao to win having just signed a deal with Top Rank.

[Randall Cunning]

ESPN getting called out for being bias, espescially Paulie Malignaggi, hes going wild.

I had it same as the Boxnation guy.

Recent contreversial ones I can remember on Boxnation same guy think had Jacobs winning against Golovkin, and I think had Gonzalez beating Rungvisai.

Boxnation was Top ranks feed..I think you got it twisted. They were the biased ones.

My stance is closer to how Bradley saw it. Tim knows his $#/t.

If you think Horn won or was even close especially after a ReWatch.. then sorry, you can't score properly.

Paulie? EVERYONE knows not to listen to him regarding anthing related to Pacquiao. ...

Paulie hates Pac. . ..and is not credible

My opinion is that most people don't score the fights when they watch them. Most people ARE influenced by the commentary. Especially casual fans. Being that boxing is such a subjective sport, people can fall for the narrative. That's why most people who watched box nation think differently.

I definitely had Pac winning the fight, but before the 8th round i remember turning to my gf and saying idk what espn is talking about, Pac is winning rounds, but he looks like hes breaking. I always felt like it was a close fight.

When I heard the 117-111 I knee Pac won because there's no way you could give Horn that many rounds. I could see maybe a draw, but even then...

That's why I say robbery even if I thought Pac only won 7 rounds. Horn didn't have any clear rounds like Pac had. Even the 10th was one I thought Pac could have won.

Malignaggi despises Pacquiao. I'm not surprised at all.

ESPN was very bias. They were pushing the boxing is corrupt agenda hard, but I still scoring it for Horn...i just don't see it.

Yeah true, but the comments responding to him seemed to all be saying the same thing, all international commentary had it close, a round either way, not what ESPN were saying.

If you think Horn won or was even close e****ally after a ReWatch.. then sorry, you can't score properly.

I saw on twitter that Top Rank commentary had it a draw. Where did you see boxnation was the top rank feed?

It's you that needs to learn how to score a fight. Horn clearly won a lot of the opening 6 rounds and picked up at least a couple of the last 6. It was a close fight.
