Is the Marquez got robbed in the 3rd fight exaggerated?

[hugh grant]

yes

Marquez won, and Pacquiao fought well

Jmm said PAC is without question the best of era. He thinks pacs resume is by far superior to floyds

Yeah he got robbed. He won the third fight 7-5.

Pacquiao won the first two fights. Marquez won the last 2.

[llll]

So many people in this thread have no idea how to score a ****ing fight lol...

Some people are saying Pacquiao won, some people are saying marquez won by 3 rounds

It was an easy fight to score.

7-5 Marquez. That's the score.

[thecomedian2]

The both fought Bradley after the 4th fight and Pac easily beat Bradley while Marquez lost by a large amount.

What that has to do with anything? Styles makes fight, Marquez has Pac number, clearly won the 3rd fight and KTFO Pac in 6.

[llll]

the draws are from Mexican media/boxers.
None of the above scores for Pacquiao or the draws are from Philippine media/boxers.
Among the unofficial scorers above, 57 scored the bout for Marquez, 51 scored the bout for Pacquiao, and the remaining 36 scored the bout a draw.

Stop exaggrrsting. people where 50/50 on who won the fight and across the experts and ring side. But yet for some reason posters act like it was a Lewis vs Holyfield type of ribbery or whitaker vs chavez.

Marquez clearly won the fight. So it was a robbery.

You don't win a fight by winning 5 rounds. You win it by winning more than 6.

Marquez clearly won and it was clearly a robbery. They gave the win to the wrong person, it doesn't matter how close it was.

*******s fail to see this and that is why a 4th fight was required and that is when Marquez put Pac to sleep!!

[champion4ever]

While it's true that Marquez landed the cleaner and the more accurate punches in third fight, he just didn't land enough of them in order to win. Likewise, and again and as always Pac was the busier and more aggressive of the two fighters as well.

You can't justify taking the champion's title away from him by being too passive, inactive and with much lower workrate than the champion.

To be honest, yes.

I considered it a robbery at first but when I rewatched it years later I had it alot closer.

Still had Marquez winning though.

Reminiscent of Mayweather-Castillo 1.

Media and press row were 50-50 on who won yet the modern day narrative is the fight was a robbery.

interesting posts

and possibly... very smart posts

interesting... I will have to watch that fight again

I had Marquez a clear winner..... but I will check again

[aboutfkntime]

like I said earlier.....

Ronnie (pac-hugger) Nathanielz watched that fight with two other people... Ben Delgado, and a licensed referee...

“Mayweather has the defense. He has the difficult defense,” Marquez said via Fighthype. “He uses his counter punching very well. He uses his distance. He’s a great fighter. It’s a difficult fight for Manny. He [Mayweather] has a difficult style. Mayweather has great defense. Mayweather has the perfect style to win this fight. If Manny wins, it’s better for me. My heart is for Pacquiao,” Marquez said.

“I think Mayweather is better than Pacquiao,” Marquez said.

In explaining how he got the better of Pacquiao in their four fights, Marquez said “I moved my body all the time and I used my speed.”
