I though there would be a thread saying JMM was robbed. Whilst he definitely he was not robbed, it was a close fight, I had JMM winning by two points. I did not see the post fight interview but I heard he did say that everyone knows that he won however Pac said that he did not want another fight and that their matter was laid to rest.
Not a lot of people realize that. Rep from me bro.Quote:

I feel sorry for Marquez I really thought he did enough, but just like when Ricky Hatton moved up to face Luis Collazo the judges were always going to look more favourably on the bigger name and more commercial prospect.
Not to suggest this was a conscious thing, but subconsciously I think the popular big name fighters tend to get the edge in close fights.
Sadly I feel that will be the last great Marquez performance. At 34 I think that fight will have taken its toll on him.
I also think Manny is on the decline now too.
I had it 115-112 for Marquez, Pacquaio looked uncomfortable with Marquez, i don't think he will fight him again and i don't think he wants to either!
wonrg, they dont look a whos moving up, in vegas its who is more exciting and thats why it pisses me off to hear that that fuck hole is the "mecca" of boxing.Quote:

seriously, people need to stop fighitng in LV coz winners get fucked over time and time again by the bulshit there.
When was the last time you picked up the ring mag with a close fight and haven't seen the blast the shit scores in vegas? even when fighters have won they have won by stipd margins... its a complete joke.
Do you suggest Berlin?
im not sure about manny being on the decline. i think he is not comfy at 130 anymore. although he made weight but he ballooned up to 145. i think thats way too heavy to gain in one day. i think he got tired quickly. and manny is trying to fight a different style. i dont agree with it. i think he should go back to his old style of fighting with pure aggression and mix up a lil counterpunching and boxing. thats his bread and butter right there.Quote:

Sabi ko nga, "suntok, suntok, atras". That was how to defeat Marquez.When Manny started to do it that in the third round, I knew then that Marquez will be in trouble.:cool:
I'm surprised so many thought Marquez got screwed. It was a VERY close fight and the knockdown made the differnce IMO.
I had Marquez up 115-112. It was a great fight & very close but I thought JMM should have got the nod... a draw at the very least would have been fair!
for marquez fans of course they thought he won, for us pac fans we thought pac won. the judges did their very best to score it and the KD really made the difference.Quote:

IMO the judges got it wrong, it was a great fight spoiled by a bad decision. I'm not saying it wasn't close but the wrong guy got the win IMO!Quote:

but now he is at the brink of losing his speed, ko power and stamina. moving 30lbs up plus age has taken its toll. that is why a couple of fights back roach started to train pac differently thats why he is not as explosive as before.
they are trying to prolong pacs fighting career by training him to box not to brawl anymore. i am already missing pacs explosive non stop punching style...
i had it 115-112 for marquez also
Ive watched it twice more now and score it by 2 for Marquez....Marquez DESERVES a rematch. Who the hell cares about a Diaz fight after this??
Manny looked like the loser in the post fight interviews as compared to Marquez and its only fair that Marquez has a chance to fix what the judges scored wrongly this time out.
Anything else is running chicken...
