I am sorry to burst the bubble but this is not a brilliant post.The fact that 5 people who scored the fight round by round could not agree on which ones to give to Pacquiao does not prove it was not a robbery.Typing
THERE's ABSOLUTELY NO ROBBERY HERE
does not prove it was not a robbery either. All 5 people had JMM winning the fight, not one amongst the 5 had a draw let alone a win for Pacquiao. The judges on the night did not judge the fight fairly they deprived JMM of that which was rightfully his and therefore robbed him. The fact that 5 people could not agree on which rounds Pacquiao won is demonstrable evidence that he was clearly outfought and beaten on the night by a masterful display of boxing from his opponent. It was hard to give him more than 4 rounds because whatever criteria you use he came second best.Accuracy ? Aggression ? Technique ? Manny failed to evolve. In the face of overwhelming aggression he can clearly pick his punches but Juan refused to lose his head and Manny could not adjust.
its a close fight that went to Agressor/Belt holder/More popular fighter but no robberies here. The reason for the ruckus is the HUGE Expectation from Pacquiao from both side.
If giving a fight to the more popular fighter is not a robbery then what is ? It was not a close fight. The reason for the ruckus is despite the huge expectations of Pacquiao destroying a so called shot over the hill fighter it was that same fighter who took Manny to school, and then that same fighter was denied a victory he deserved. It now seems unless Marquez knocked Pacquiao out he was never going to be given the decision on winning more rounds.
I think the judges in the Pacquiao Marquez fight proved judges are actuallyconsistent
what consistently inept,blinkered ?
Only rounds 2 and 3 were clear for Marquez and that is not a robbery.
This just proves the judges had no intention of rewarding Marquez fairly, even in rounds he dominated.
Those scores arent my scores. and what i am saying is not an opinion, since these 5 posters gave those rounds to Pacquiao not me.
What you are saying is an opinion one which you have inflicted on other peoples data
Professional bouts arent scored on emotion. but technically round by round.
By no technical criteria does Pacquiaowin more rounds. Bias and preconception skewered the scorecards at the very least.
Marquez's beautiful connections weighs the same with Pac's harder awkward looking connects.
How can Marquez's the larger heavier mans connections weigh the same as Pac's HARDER connects ? either they are the same or pac's are harder
and Fenster
miron_lang that is a truly BRILLIANT post.
Impossible to argue against.
How can it possibly be a robbery if everyone is scoring rounds differently?
Great stuff.
miron's was not a truly BRILLIANT post. It is impossibly easy to argue against because the fact that people score rounds differently does nothing but confirm the unbiased objective way in which 5 people struggled to award Pacquiao any more than 5 rounds and 3 people gave him only 4 rounds and one person 3. Witnesses to a crime rarely describe the scene in exactly the same way but will often all describe the same offence and in this case it was a robbery.
