    And I will not claim to be a boxing genius and not even close to the smartest on the forum right here... you didn't need to be a genius to see that the fix was in.
    It was primetimetv. Just whatever the firstrow stream link was. Ricky Hatton and two other guys. And they were all going insane. All through the match they had Marquez ahead. These guys called it straight after ie "This was a decision to line pockets" and they kept going on about how it was the wrong call.

    I've never watched a boxing match with anyone other than the standard US guys commentating and at first we were bitching about it but thank f I wasn't. I was starting to wonder if I was going nutty when they were reading out the scores but from their reaction, I knew even my peabrain had figured it out right. Then they did an after match thing where the commentators were all just sick.

    You and Lou have bombarded me with the tech side of boxing for a long time and it's finally starting to sink in. There are quite a few of you guys who love this sport and don't just post random fanboi nonsense I find when doing a Google search. Such big assets to the forum. All of you.

    It really is sick. I wish I watched that broadcast of the fight instead. HBO's was disgraceful to say the least.

I stand by by my analysis and think if you rewatch the fight you wil find it closer than you are currently proclaiming. Marquez NEVER stunned or hurt Pac man patty. Many rounds were close a few decisive. Overall I think Manny hurt Marquez more. He swung more landed more, defended better and marquez did nothing last two rounds other than dance trying to defend his "lead" which was a figment of his corners imagination. If he actually fought at all the last two rounds he may have the belt but in reality he would have had to show something seriously solid. As i said you may not like how fights are score but they are scored somewhat consistently with champs getting the benefit of the doubt.
    We will talk about mayweather/pacquiao when it is signed on the dot. Today is today. Bob arum and the judges should be hung in mexico for this shit.

    Stats need to be broken down per round to tell the true story.

    That's a stupid argument. People swell, cut up, and show damage different. There are some guys who can take an enormous amount of damage and look fine, others cut easily and swell up like a balloon every fight.

    Also, once again, fights are scored by rounds and one could assume that all of that facial damage happened in one round.

    Pacquiao is a lot more powerful than marquez.. this is another horrible argument. You don't know shit you're embarrassing yourself.

    This is why I have a very strict rule in regards to boxing.

    I will not bet more than 3000 on this crap

    basically same thing as betting on gymnastics or diving
