Juan Manuel Marquez was robbed by Manny Pacquiao

For all ya’ll Pacquiao fans out there, face it, it was highway robbery.

If you missed last weekend’s rematch between Manny Pacquiao and Juan Manuel Marquez, the third world moron beat Marquez to win his WBC Super Featherweight championship belt via split decision.

One judge saw it right, 115-112 to Juan Manuel Marquez. The other one saw it tight and although he gave it to Pacquiao 114-113, I guess I can accept that since the fight was just too damn close to determine a winner.

Manny Pacquiao vs Juan Manuel MarquezAs for that other judge who saw it 115-112 in favor of Manny Pacquiao, jeezuschrist, what the fuck was that sick fuck watching? I mean, yeah sure, Manny Pacquiao brought Marquez down in round 3 to score a 10-8 round, but puh-lease, that round was the only dominating round for Pacquiao as Marquez simply took care of business the rest of the way.

I scored it 114-112 in favor of Juan Manuel Marquez just because Marquez had really good rounds during rounds 11 and 12. He fought the fight like any prototypical boxer would, come out strong in the first two rounds and finish strong again in the last two.

Watching him get robbed like that was really sad. Hell, even Manny Pacquiao himself was surprised when he heard Michael Buffer announce his name as the winner.

Pacquiao, knowing that he just robbed Marquez of the WBC Featherweight title, no longer wants a third fight with the Mexican probably because he knows the ass-kicking he’ll receive once he sets foot in the ring with Marquez again.

‘’I don’t think so,'’ Manny Pacquiao said of a third fight with Marquez. ‘’This business is over.'’

In fairness to some of Pacquiao’s people, (people who are not as DUMB and IGNORANT as some people who call me a racist every single time I attack their beloved hero…) a couple of Filipino sports analysts agree that Marquez should’ve won. Yes, even though they share the same race with this ‘’paper'’ champion, they don’t feel obliged to cheer Pacquiao on. They saw it as a boxing match, nothing more, nothing less and no bias whatsoever.

That’s probably a thing Filipinos can really be proud of. Not some dude who became champion by chomping down a butt-load of duck fetus.
