    pacquiao was the aggressor all throughout and had some connect on marquez but couldn't hit him cleanly and clearly missed on a lot of his haymakers. on the other hand, marquez was quite successful with his countering and connected more cleanly but wasn't quite active enough him being the challenger. i thought it could have been a draw and would have been satisfied with a close decision either way. even quite a number of filipinos thought pacquiao lost coz he really looked bad and couldn't execute and it was such a letdown of the people's expectations of him completely dominating in the fight. i don't think it was a robbery though coz if you go by the punchstats you can clearly see that it was another close fight that could have gone either way.

    Although some fans doubted the accuracy of the judges’ scoring, the computer stats proved Marquez wasn’t robbed. Pacquiao had more punches landed, 176 to 138 and more punches thrown, 578 to 436. Clearly, Pacquiao used his trademark as a volume puncher to pile up points over the more precise but less busy Marquez.

    I was one of those with Marquez as a sentimental favorite but I was at work and did not get the results until two hours after the fight was over. The sports stations all said JMM was the clear winner and one judge as I understand it had his head in the clouds. This facilitates the argument that came from the writings of many on this web site that like in football, let's go to the video. This has been the year for the inept officials of boxing and we have a record high of an attack of idiocy.
