JMM is 39 years old.
He will fade during the championship rounds. There is no rocket science to aging. Never heard a 39 years old wleters faring well, ever. If Pac fights at a faster pace, JMM will fade. Pac is still the younger guy here/ |

Arum being obviously smart, I doubt he would pick Bradley of all opponents to have the win over Pacquiao. Bradley is clearly a good gatekeeper with no power, he's not one that could carry much in terms of excitement in the long run.

I'm picking JMM to win via UD, at least 8 rounds to 4. I think JMM always had the style and knowledge to beat Pac, but Pac was physically stronger. It looks like JMM is now at least on a level playing field as far as strength. Provided that his increased muscle mass doesn't take away from his speed or affect the timing of his counterpunches, I look for JMM to look very good tonight.
Of course, I could be quite wrong on this. I thought Pac would win via KO in their thrid fight. |

Manny's legs have gone.
It was his footspeed that allowed him to cause Marquez problems. Given their respective styles, Pacquiao has done seriously well to get to 60 fights and still be so good, Marquez's ring IQ is off the chart, right up there with Floyd and Hopkins, which will be the difference tonight. |

I see Marquez by SD, minus the controversy this time. At least one judge is gonna favor Manny's aggression (even if it does not prove to be "effective") and flash over Marquez's quiet precision.

JMM is almost 39 years old and thats ancient for a life time featherweight....he has already defied the odds by about 6 or 7 years and has to come up flat at some point. this could be the time that happens where he acts his age and loses decisively

You can only pull a few miracles but at 39, I doubt he can last 12 rounds without gassing out. No disrespect to JMM if he losses but he has the style that matches up well with Pac. |

Pac has lost all 3 fights, and the reason he's suddenly saying hes agreed to all Mayweathers demands is so all the money men behind the vegas casinos, lean on the judges to make sure the Money v Pac fight happens. Doesnt happen off a PAC loss. Marquez getting robbed again IMO.
