How did you score Pac/Marquez 3?

[captainanddew]

Probably Marquez by 2 but I wasn't surprised by Pac getting the decision

The judge who gave it Pac by 4 wants sacking

But how many times we said this over last 20 years

by 4. He gave Marquez the 12th round. I thought Pac won that round. It is almost as if he gave that round to Marquez because he didn't want to turn in a 117-111 scorecard.

he thought Pac won 8 of the first 11 rounds. NO matter how you scored the fight, someone turning in that scorecard shouldn't be able to judge again.

7 to 5 Marquez, that was giving everything but the kitchen sink to Pac

See above for Rd 1

Rd2 - JMM

Rd3 - JMM

Rd4 - JMM

Rd5 - JMM - Clear win

Rd 6 - Pac - good work from both and if you favoured JMM's work no argument from me could have gone either way

Rd7 - JMM, landed some good shots. one thing i notice with JMM he doesn't always follow through with his shots he is happy to land and get away. He could cause more damage if he committed to his shots a bit more

Rd8 - JMM

Rd9 - Pac. Great round, plenty of 2 way traffic but Pac probably landed more quality shots. When he lets his combos go he has a lot of success. Marquez doing well to stay away and not get trapped on the ropes.

Rd 10 - Pac, but close another round that others could see different.

R11 - pac, ditto 10

R12 - JMM not a lot of action but Marquez edged it.

Jmm 115 - 113 Pac I think, if my maths is right

I think there was some rounds without a lot of action which made them hard to score but overall JMM landed the better shots, His movement was great he didnt get drawn in to an all out war but when there was exchanges he was holding his own. Pac seemed unable to close the gap effectively and he was bouncing around too much without doing much, why wasn't he exploding in to attacks and throwing a high volume of punches from different angles? Jmm was in great condition (both were)

Round 1 could have been given to Marquez, as could round 11 and some other rounds you can change round who you gave them to but either way you look at it JMM wins.

Pac did not seem as though he thought he won but of course he isn't going to say that. Wasn't as bad as Lewis v Holyfield 1 but the wrong guy definitely got the decision i reckon. Good fight though.

People will forget about this when all the casual fans start shouting for Pac vs Mayweather to happen in May

2 of the judges had Pac actually up 4 rounds to 2 after 6 rounds.

they all thought Pac won round 2. Which I'm perplexed by. That was Marquez's round.

Which didn't make sense. When you score a fight there are rounds you score for 1 guy and you could flip as you admit it was a close close round. Round 3 was like that to me. Round 2 wasn't!!!

Round 8- 2 of the judges disagreed with you. Another round I scored for Marquez and didn't put close beside to indicate it could easily be flipped.

It's one thing i love about boxing is how everyone can see a fight different but not the extent that a clear win for 1 guy is not given to him. People are saying they are going to watch the fight again and see if their scores are any different, Maybe if the judges watched the fight again on tv away from the live crowd and concentrate 100% they might see it different too. (not that anything could be done about it)
Some rounds could be flipped as you say but no way did Manny win the fight. JMM must be so disheartened after that I would be amazed if he would want to go through another tough training camp just to risk having a win taken from him.

Here is my scorecard:

1. Pac

3. JMM
4. Pac
5. Pac
6. JMM
7. JMM
8. JMM
9. Pac
10. JMM
11. JMM
12. Pac

115-113 for JMM...
Rd. 1 nothing much to chose from but rd goes to the champion.
Rd. 7, at the conclusion of this rd Freddy tells Manny "You need to use your hand speed. Your letting him get off on you Manny. You need more combinations"
Rd. 12 was a close rd in the sense that I felt JMM landed more shots but I think Pac wanted the rd more and he closed it out stronger with the rally and a left hand he landed.
In a similar rd, rd. 4 where it was close Pac landed more shots and eventough JMM wanted the rd more and closed it out strong with a right hand I didn't think it was enough to win it.

I just downloaded the fight to rescore it. I'll post my card when I'm done.

When I watched it live I felt that Marquez had won by a decent margin, but there were several close rounds.

7rds to 5 rds JMM and thats coming from a filipino pac fan.

It's good to hear that every single pac fan isn't actually mentally retarded.

[Mattyhitman]

I thought Marquez was robbed. 118-110

It was the worst fight out of the 3. Both guys were too cautious and slower than they used to be. Looks like both are past their best and the fight never really caught fire despite afew good exchanges. Marquez always in control and showed that the wieght wasnt an issue but neither guy commited so they both left it in the hads of the judges.

This is the score I had. Only giving Pac 2 rd's. Just didnt push enough. It looked like he was cautious to throw incase he got counted, which is exactly what happened. If this Manny turns up against Floyd, he wont win a single round.

[Andre]

I had it JMM 7 to 5 MP today after rewatching it from Mannys point of view.
Some very close rounds.
