Robbery of the year...the fans have spoken.
Ring magazine put up a poll asking what the robbery of the year was...and the winner (or loser in this case) is:
Readers vote Pacquiao-Marquez III the "Robbery of the Year" for 2011 | RingTV
Marquez losing to PAcquiao was by far the number one robbery of the year as voted on by the public. Personally I don't think this was the biggest robbery and the fact that it was voted on so heavily just goe to show you that most people that voted on it were at best casual fans.
I really didnt see MArquez winning it to be honest as I think he needed to do more in the close rounds however after watching the "Decoding Marquez VS Pacquiao" video I really had to reconsider. That video really changed my opinion about some of the footwork Manny does that looks exciting but is really quite ineffective in putting him in a better position to attack and showed that Marquest really is a better ring general in their againt Manny.
I still dont think a 4th fight would do anything for either fighter at this point as if Marquez finally got the nod against Pacquiao it really wouldnt change anything except maybe knock Pacquiao to number 3 or 4 pound for pound and obviously take more steam out of Mayweather fight.
Thoughts??
