    8-4
    7-5

    Either one. Im not saying Pac is no good. He is obviously great but i feel things are the same other than JMM getting older but i feel he wins another close fight.

    JMM is not a shy guy. He wont be afraid to fire. Thats the big difference between he and everyone else Pac fought lately. Well except Margarito. He just didnt have the speed or skills.

    It wont matter. JMM is too old and slow at this higher weight. Pacquiao can be as wild as he wants and he'll still run him over.

    :lol:

    Admittedly he does have short arms for an elite welter, yet those arms were "long" back in his FW days and below. He makes up for the lack of reach with headmovement nowdays though

    Pac looking great. I still see him doing the same thing he did in the second JMM fight. Come on Marquez.

    If jmm would just box Pac and not trade with Pac he could outbox him. But the Mexican in him won't allow that, he starts to trade with Pac and that's where he loses the fight. Be smart and box and he wins a decision trade with Pac and he loses again.

    Nothing else really needs to be said about this fight. Marquez focuses too much on his offense. With this version of Pac he has to focus on counters and get the **** out the way.

    It's not as easy as just deciding to 'box' Pac, guys. Pac will make you fight, regardless of who you are. I honestly don't think you can get away with just trying to pot shot him, unless your name is Mayweather. (And even he would have trouble and could very well lose.)

    Pac only has one loss in recent years, and that was against Morales, who threw combinations. Marquez was also able to have two very close fights with him, and I don't think it's a coincidence that he also throws great combinations. They boxed him, but they also HAD to fight him at many points, because Pac is relentless and comes at you with speed, power and all sorts of angles. There are points where you simply have to fight him off or you'll get run over. The problem is that when you stand and throw in bunches, you always open yourself up and risk getting caught...but if you don't do that, you'll be overwhelmed by Pac's furious offence. It's a tricky situation.

    :happy:happy These idiots think it's too easy to box Pac. LOL Morales and Marquez box and brawled with Pac. You don't get Pac's respect he's gonna run you over.

    What if you box and don't get hit? For example what Floyd does recently. He can come forward but still barley gets hit.

    Recently, he's fought gun-shy opponents. The Ortiz fight didn't tell us much. But Mosley - who was practically shot - was too hesitant and had no fight in him, to mount anything serious. Part of that, of course, had to do with Floyd counterpunching him. He may do the same to Pac, but it's hard to say
