go to 1:45 - 2:05 lol
this is what i thought of when i saw the decision

 

[Mexi]

i think we can all agree that boxing defeated MMA today

i hate when people say boxing is dying. it's clearly not


and no, i dont hate MMA. i really like it. it's possible for both to be great at the same time. 2 different sports. i hate when they are compared

just like no one compares hockey to soccer. similar idea for a game, but completely different games

 

[elcheato]

Well it's not really growing either.

I really don't want a rematch of this fight..Let's get the real fight we all want too see

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

Yeah I felt like he didn't use his speed to his advantage IMO. Btw ufc wouldn't have messed up if they had shown a couple more fights. Nice KO doe.

 

[elcheato]

I didn't mind the one fight type deal. Most people are just tuning in for the main event, so it makes sense. It just sucks for them that it only lasted a minute.

it's been around since the beginning of time, i'd say it's grown just fine

i dont think UFC messed up today

we just want to see a fight
some are quick, some arent.
when it's free, who cares

Fans of UFC realize that, but people who tune in for the first time (that was the point of giving it away free) and see the fight last only one minute aren't really encouraged to stick around.

There were a couple of really good fights that would have caught people's eyes though.

 

[elcheato]

I guess, the under card just isn't that popular, especially among the casuals and newcomers. Cause I'll admit that I'm mainly just a casual, I watch for the main events. A lower weight class might have been better for free TV, because the heavyweights just don't last long..

 

[Mexi]

Pacquiao hasnt had a KO since 2009
Mayweather since 2007 (not counting September vs. Ortiz)

 

[elcheato]

Pacman's fight against Margarito should have been stopped by the ref just last year.

 

[The Young One]

Margarito's eye... :unclephil:

Good work by Cotto

 

[snipezo]

That was an entertaining fight.

 

[DannyColtsBro]

This video sums up this mythical Mayweather Pacquaio debacle. Some funny shit right here.

I went to HS with Eloy Perez. Actually was on the football team with him too.
