But to those who do last night should be a lesson.
Besides, if you are just going on punch connects compuboxs scores it 115-112 to Pacquiao.
Did you have it wider?

Pac is 40 years old so that have to choose his opponents very wisely and carefully. They are a smart team. They know which battles to choose.
At this point in Pac's career, they are searching for the right opponents at the right time. Just take a look at his last three opponents; Matthysse, Broner and Thurman. What did they all have in common; They were all diminished, shot, washed up and past their primes.
If any fan disagrees with me it's because they had Thurman picked for the victory but I was not one of them. I always said that Pac would win this fight.
I just didn't think that the fight would have been as close as it was though.

But I don't judge fights that way so to me the counts don't matter.

If you apply that do the compubox stats, Pacquiao wins 115-112.
Do you agree with that score or did you have it wider?

In fact many see it as a negative.
Running and clinching is what ODH did the last 5 rounds against Tito, barely landing a punch. Floyd landed punches against Manny.
This fight showed how great manny is but also makes you realize how great floyd is that he can totally neutralize his offense where a Thurman level boxer couldn’t.

You no clinching is illegal in boxing right?
Do you think the rules of boxing should be enforced?
Do you also think running backwards gets you extra points

If you use the 10-point must system and score round-by-round and add any other criteria on top of that then my criticism obviously doesn't pertain to you.
