    That Margarito was damaged and incapable. Whereas Marquez and BRadley came into the fight fresher and not coming off horrible ass beatings.

    The fight was a lot more punishing than Bradley, you kidding? JMM 3, hard to tell, their slowest fight. Probably less suspense than the Marg fight even.

    No way. Marquez put it on Manny bad in that 3rd fight.

    He took a long break that did him good probably, and had a tuneup to lose some rust. How about you answer, since all these other posters failed: other than plaster, what did he not bring into the ring that night that he normally would? Less speed and reflex? :lol:

    Marquez always landed showy punches on Pac, every fight, near every round. None of them had the effect that Marg body punch had when Pac was on the ropes, till fight 4.

    He was gun shy, hardly as aggressive as he used to be, and hardly throwing his signature uppercut. He woulda at least been punching and missing, but punching regardless. Manny might of still won, but come out very scathed and possibly be dropped by bodyshot or get overwhelmed by a late Margarito onslaught. Similar to Maravilla-Chavez Jr. I think Manny woulda been in serious trouble in the late rounds vs a prime Margo.

    the margarito that pac fought would have punished and beat both jmm and bradley.

    He still threw a shitload of punches despite having a constantly moving target. You don't think Pac's feet (and punches!) had anything to do with a slightly lower output, compared to shelled up Clottey say?

    Margarito beats Cotto: Manny fights Cotto
    Clottey: WHo gives a ****
    Shane beats Margarito: Manny fights Margarito
    Floyd beats Shane: Manny fights Shane

    Stop hyping this bull**** up please.

    That's what happens when the best fight each other, win some lose some. Sometimes it's not so clear, like FMJ thinking Clottey beat Cotto. Pac beat them all with ease, just to be sure.

    Why do people waste their day arguing this ****?

    It was good, not great, just like Floyds

    The fact that he came up from Fly was the kicker

    No he didn't. He came up from lightweight.
