Manny Pacquiao scored a split decision -- scores of 115-112, 114-113, 112-115 -- to capture Juan Manuel Marquez's WBC 130-pound title Saturday night in Las Vegas. It was a thrilling contest and afterward it seemed that old cliche -- there was no loser -- was appropriate.

i do not have any comment on pacquiao and marquez split decision. but what i'd like to comment was the commentators during the fight. i dont know if they were filipinos who prayed for the winning of pacquiao. we were happy for that decision because pacquiao fight for the Philippines.
Pacqiao wins that fight. y should that two commentators favored marquez. pacquiao should win that fight. because of that knock-out on the 3rd round. that was a very close fight.
we cannot question the the 3 judges.thats there profession and that two commentators are just commentators. they do not study on boxing. so pls next time bring a true filipino commentators.
tnx.
