    Cmon guys.


    You can see how these 5 unbiased posters have their tally. its their score. Its justifiable to give those to Pac. It means that the fight is that close and your preference is different compare d to the official judges. as what Bilbo wrote here

    Only rounds 2 and 3 were clear for Marquez and that is not a robbery.

    If you think rounds 2 and 3 were clear for Marquez then the judges screwed him. 2 judges had round 2 for Pac. All 3 judges gave Pac round 3.

    Dougie Fisher of ring (who had it a draw) said in his mailbag, it wasn't a robbery as there was alot of close rounds. He did point out that in close fights like this it is not likely for the judging to go against the biggest PPV draw in the sport. That is just being honest.

    I started watching the fight last night again, this time scoring it.

    I had rounds 1 & 2 both level.

    Unfortunatley I fell asleep after that! Got woke up on the sofa by the mrs, asking what I was doing with my laptop in my lap with squiggles on a bit of paper next to me!

    A better question, rather than asking whether it was a robbery, would be to ask people whether they believe the judges acted fairly and impartially without bias towards the 'money' fighter.

    Can anyone truly say they believe that??

    Perhaps we shouldn't class a fight like this as a robbery, similar to Sturm/Macklin and many other competitive fights with controversial scores favouring the home or bigger name fighter (Williams/Lara excluded as that fight was not even close). In that case, we clearly require an entirely new word for a fight where the judges have already decided the winner before the first bell sounds and manipulate their scorecards accordingly.

    Had Pac fought Marquez' fight he would have won a convincing UD.

    Can we all agree Marquez looked FANTASTIC at welterweight?

    Pacquiao obliged by attacking all the time. That is playing to JMM's strength. the judges rewarded him for doing that.
