this was a robbery. I started to rewatch it. It is definitely a robbery of epic proportions.
People confuse the fact that Manny looked older and slower, and got hit by shots he should not get hit by, and had a tougher time than he should have, with Manny actually losing the fight.
Fighting below expectations has nothing to do with losing a fight.
For example. Go watch the second round. Pacquiao clearly won that round. It is very clear. More head shots more body shots, harder, more accurate and better.
But the announcers are excited, as I am sure everyone there was, that Horn is in there and coming forward. But he is getting tagged.
