It has been the worst decision in boxing to date. I always beleived that a challenger had to take the title from the CHAMPION but, it turns out that, that rule in boxing is not true. I am ashamed at my sport tonight for not making the right decision. Marquez Wins.

I agree, that is why Manny only won because of that knockout. Stay tune I should get more pictures Big Joe Miranda was at Ring Side.

what you need to realize though Edgar is that the knockdown didnt make a difference. without the knockdown that round is just 10-9 and pacquiao still wins comfortably on 2 scorecards. Every non-biased boxing fan knows that the champ was robbed of his title from a challenger that rarely won consecutive rounds in this fight. shame on boxing judges once again.

it was a close fight that could have gone either way. In this case, it seems the knock down nudged it for pac man. i'm ready for a third fight, Marquez isnt getting any younger!

It saddens me to see such biased bullshit in a big mega-fight but what is new in boxing?? Marquez clearly won a close bout and I had him up by 3 points such as the first judge did. I have even talked to someone who scored it for Marquez by 5 points although I believe that score is too much in his favor. Boxing simply gave Pacquiao the victory because he is younger and brings many more millions of dollars to the sport. Marquez' only way of ever beating Pacquiao is by KO because its clear that the judges will never give him a victory by decision. Let's get it out into the open how much Ledderman is an idiot lol. He is the most biased groupy of the HBO crew. Even Larry Merchant had to give a more fair opinion than the idiot Ledderman who scored it 3 points for Pacquiao. Boxing's only problem has been their scoring but we just learn to get use to it since bad decisions happen every month in this sport.

Amen! Jose I toatally agree with your comment on leddermen. I watched the fight in a bar in Mexicali, and I could not here the HBO comentator's but, when I saw the ledderman score card in the later rounds I was furious and right then i could smell a bullshit decision. That's to bad for us as boxing faithful's.
