    Other then being caught twice, I thought he did a superb job. He was hitting Marquez at will and it looked he was about to take Marquez out. Even though he lost, I gave him mad prop for putting a performance like this. Beside being Hattonized and being dropped in the third, I had him sweeping all the round. Congrat to Marquez for pulling it off though.

    Agree , looking at it again, he made some clever adjustments that were throwing JMM off. Like after he would lead with his left, he would dip down and pivot to the side instead of pulling his head right back up.

    Also he was doing a better job cutting off the ring and keeping JMM in front of him.

    Marquez was slow from bulking up. Marquez was going for the ko.

    I actually thought Manny woke up after the KD, I gave Dynamita rounds 2-4, he did much better in the 5th and 6th

    but this is boxing, all it took was the punch of JMM's life and down and out went Pac

    Yeah, he probably figured from the 5th round that fighting at Pac's pace would not go well for him and settled on catching Pac making a mistake with a big counter. And damn did he ever do that.

    Marquez looked slow and old in there this time round.pac looked pretty sharp and fast and was bossing the action.

    The difference was when both men started trading, Marquez will duck his head and throw but PAC will leave his head up, there was a moment when Marquez caught him doing just that and I said to myself if Marquez catches him flush like that he getting knocked down again. I never dreamed PAC would be hattoned by it.

    Before that lucky punch by Marquez, Pacquiao was about to put away Marquez.
    That's boxing. Things like that happen.

    Kudos to both fighters for giving us a classic fight.

    Hell yeah Marquez could have easily been the one, but this is boxing and like Bogotazo said inches make a difference, Marquez got their first.


    But man it was crazy, Pac gets 2 good rounds loses 1, Marquez gets a KD, then Pac brings the pain for another round, gets knocked out in the last, WOW
