Pureist, that video is a crock of crap. Review his score of Rounds 3 & 8 for example.
This video highlights them --

just did, that straight to the body should have been counted, that flurry that he showed wasnt even in either of those 2 rounds, a couple of punches should have been added for both fighters and that hook of floyds hit on the back and side of pacquaios neck, not scoring, a couple hit on the top of pacquaios head, not scoring
The video address 2, 3, 6 & 8. So, straight right in which round?
'That hook'? I assume you mean at the end of round 3? That hits Pacquiao underneath the ear and on the jaw line. But yes, you'd be forgiven for not scoring it if you applied the same standards to Pacquiao. Speaking of which, the flurry was in round 6.
1 or 2 of those shots landed cleanly. 1 of which really was behind the ear. Top of the head? If you're referring to the right hand in round 2, it lands clean. There's a shot a few seconds earlier that lands cleanly too.
The only way, in my view, you can score this bout to Pacquiao is by giving him the benefit of the doubt on over a dozen shots. Those shots fall on the blind side of the camera or scuff Money's guard.
I don't the video I've linked is flattering to Floyd. Why? Because by negating Pacquiao's phantom shots Floyd is already up on our 'Punch Count' in Rounds 2 & 8. That's even before we count Floyd's shots. The viral video demonstrates extreme bias and counts Pacquiao shots that miss clean ...
... Unless you really think those shots landed in round 2?
