Where is your God now Pacquiao? If only the rumors about Marquez were true, than one could extrapolate a headline "Homosexuality beats Bible". But no, this Marquez has to be the straight one.

Ironically, a lot of people specifically attribute Pacquiao's downfall due to his "conversion" into full blown Protestant... having previously been somewhat of a lapsed Catholic.

Pacquiao just doesn't like hurting people anymore.     Where old Pacman would go for the kill.  Current Pacman tries to drag things out to decision confident he's won in scoring. (which is what led to his last loss before this... which itself was controversial.)


His win against Marquez in the third fight was also contraversial but people seem to be only focusing on the Bradley robbery. If you ask me he clearly lost against Marquez in the third fight and won against Bradley.

My point wasn't that the outcome was controversial, so much as if Pacqiao were his usual nonreligious self, there wouldn't of been a decision... as he noticeably let up after he thought he'd scored the victory overwhelmingly on points.

 

As for the two robberies, at least Pacqiao outlaned Marquez in total punches.


Number of punches landed is just half of the picture, it's more important who did more damage. Pacquiao connected more punches in the third fight, but Marquez the harder punches and that's why almost all people consider it was a robbery. In the first two fights Marquez outlanded Pacquiao, does that mean he deserved to win those fights? (Although I think he did, but not because of that but because he looked better imo)

I didn't say that's why he should of won the fight.

I'm saying why that was less of a robbery then Bradly.

 

Pac vs Marquez, you could find an arguement for Pac.

The bradly fight though... that one just defies explination.
