Looked like Marquez won to me or it was a draw, but boxing needs Mayweather/Pacman so I'm not surprised and it's not as marketable if Pacman is coming off a loss.
Marquez should of won but you know the Judges have to give it to Pac. Harold Lederman scorecard was a joke.

And this is another reason I'm leery of the Floyd-Pac fight..They won't let Pac lose if it's a decision

I don't think it's a big deal.. It was pretty close. Personally it looked like Marquez did win, but I could see it on both sides.

Still don't understand why Pacman was so bad in that fight. At times he looked tentative as fuck and at times he was swinging like a mad man. He looked 10 times better in his first two fights vs Marquez.

floyd and pac have the same amount of clout
it'd be evenly judged imo

Floyd has the bad guy rep..Manny is perceived as the good guy. The good guy will get the edge...Floyd will clearly have to be beating his ass or get a KO..If it's even close to even Manny will get the decision.

Marquez got use to Pacman style and decided to take him out his rhythm early, but it didn't matter anyways smh..

Not making any excuses for Manny's performance but dont u think he might have been looking past Marquez a little bit? I really didn't see the real Pacman tonight.

Just wanna throw it out there..That Floyd had no problems with Marquez...Meanwhile Manny was having trouble with a counter puncher...WHen Manny misses..They applaud him for being aggressive..When he lands they act like he's George Foreman. They do not want him to lose..The Brits were going off in the feed I had.

I'm sorry but those Brit announcers wanted Marquez to win from the start and made it seem like he was dominating the entire fight, which wasn't true.

It evens out because the HBO crew treats Manny like he's Jesus. Either way we got Cotto and Margarito next..

Anyway, it was a good night for boxing in terms of the actual fight, which was really good. Meanwhile, UFC threw up a stinker in a pretty important night in their company's history.

Marquez was the aggressive one tonight especially with the counter punches, but i would give the slight edge to Marquez.
