You know, I just watched this and was expecting to see a decimation..I actually saw a lot of close rounds. I didn't score it..just wanted to watch the fight first time round. I didn't let the pro pacquiao crowd sway me. The exchanges were fairly even.

Pacquiao is clearly the classier fighter but I felt he made it harder on himself by being quite lazy in this fight.

Not saying he lost - I'll go back and score it another time but what I did see were quite a few difficult to score rounds. I still think Arum had a hand in the result to extend his bottom line and his agenda.

In the rematch, if Pac puts his foot on the gas he'll have a much easier time and maybe get Tim out of there. Also, when are fighters going to learn NEVER coast those final championship rounds!!
