88 scores taken from the boxing press and only 4 had Marquez winning the fight. One of the scores i feel was shocking.
I had it 115-113 Bradley but felt he clearly won.
All scores on.... Timothy Bradley scored the winner over Juan Manuel Marquez by 78 boxing writers | Latest | Boxing News
Comments Welcome
ps; i know it says 78 scores on page but waiting for web editor to change this.
im in shock how many people scored it for bradley. and there were a few very wide margins. i still dont see it.
Doesn't surprise me. Bradley deserved the nod.
The 116-112 JMM was the one that surprised me.
Good stuff man.You do this for every fight. That is hard work. Much appreciated.Quote:

It wasn't until I visited the forums I realised some people scored it for Marquez. ( they must be die hard Marquez fans )
Marquez loses credibility when he claims he was robbed every time he loses. I sympathise with him for the pac fights but what about the close fights he won.
Surprised me a bit too.Quote:

Yea that card for Marquez was poor for me. I cannot see how to score it for JMM. Bradley was far better on te night

In this case, the scores point out what many of us saw. And that was Bradley winning the fight.
Exactly how I felt @fightscorecollector. I was also surprised one judge had it for Marquez and I really wanted him to win. Not really understanding all the hate towards Bradley in this one, they fought his fight and he controlled it IMO.Quote:

The only way you can score that for Jmm is if you are a die hard fan or you hate Bradley. One of the clearest loses Jmm has had and ever one thought he would kill Bradley as well. Now rematch pac i would love to see how a non injured Bradley would do i think it be a better fight.
^yeah I think it's too much love for JMM and too much hate for Bradley. Tim fought a great fight. He fought a great counterpuncher like you should fight one. JMM was mostly getting beat to the punch and getting the worse of the exchanges.
