Did anybody think PacMan won the fight?

[Saddo]

No he didn't win last night and the main thing that pissed me off was at the end of the fight Pac had his head down knowing he was too gunshy and it lost him the fight.... then prob after getting tipped off before the result that he had got the nod he was riding on shoulders proclaiming victory.

I watched it on my phone so not the best way to view it but I thought Manny won the fight. Of course the crowd booed, they were pro Marquez from the start, the Mexicans were screaming for him the whole fight.

I was disappointed that it was so competitive as I think it bursts the bubble regarding Manny vs Floyd being a great fight, Floyd dominates him imo.

But there was no robbery last night. Manny was busiers. He threw more and outlanded Marquez although at a slightly lower connection rate.

I've not seen many knowledgable experts say they though Marquez won. The entire team on boxingtalk had Manny winning a close fight, as did HBO.

I think the general hatred for Manny, the perception that Marquez had previously been robbed, and the pervading view going in that Marquez was going to get mashed up this time meant that many people over reacted to everything Mrquez did, and felt Manny lost simply because he wasn't getting his way and dominating like all his previous opponents.

Bob " I am so deluded when Pacquiao fights that i get high on the smell of money" Arum thought Pacman won.

The ESPN guys had Manny or a draw. Lederman and Lampley had Manny. The press ringside was split.

The compubox stats say Pac was ahead, but they can be deceptive. I'll probably see it next weekend.

Compubox doesn't say who's "ahead.". This isn't amateur boxing, where you just count the punches that landed; another factor is how clean and effective those punches were. Yet another factor is defense - those extra hundred punches that Compubox says Pacquiao missed that Marquez didn't.

Sensible post.. " compubox "... Lol thats some amatuer shit.
