    All pressure will be on him to KO Marquez in an even more impressive fashion. He will be taking risks and pay the price at some point. He will not be in a proper mindset for this fight.

    Marquez will let Pac be the sole aggressor and wait for his perfect spot. He will conveniently be taking the counterpuncher role the whole night. He is 39 years old and has all the excuses if he ever lost especially if a close fight.

    Another loss to Marquez will be a big big black eye for Pac.

    Pac should just go for either Bradley or Floyd. Floyd is his best option right now because if ever he beats Floyd (a big IF), he redeems everything.

    Pac has not gotten rid of his gambling habits. He'll gamble away all that he has which in this case might be his health or even his life. I used to be highly against a 5th fight mainly because there is nothing in that pot that will enhance JMM's legacy. But sometimes a ***** will keep coming back after receiving two black eyes and that's when you make sure he stays down for good. Marquez's formula to destroy Pac is still fresh in his head, so the sooner they fight, the more likely JMM will score another KO.

    I think Pacquiao should definitely try to get an immediate rematch. That was a horrific knockout! He was looking great, minus the knockdown in round 3. I say go for it! If he is still what he was before the 4th fight, he should win.

    He could get his belt back from Bradley. I want to see Timmy get a very convincing win over Pac so the haters can stop crying.

    There is Rios. Not many people give him much of a chance but if Pac has lost a step it is dangerous to jump right in with a brawler who has the ability to KO anyone if given the chance.

    Gamboa? He has said he'd like to fight Bradley...so if he can make weight he can fight Pac

    Now let's assume Arum will finally do business with GBP.....

    There is Broner. Would love to see how Pac deals with the shoulder roll defense. If we can't get Pac vs. Floyd then why not Pac-Broner? Next best thing.

    Matthysse. I think it'd be a war. LM can crack as we all know.

    Khan. If Pac is washed up then this might be a good fight especially given the tension between Khan and former trainer Freddie Roach.

    I feel obligated to say Floyd. So, yes, Floyd.

    Guerrero. I think the Ghost outboxes Pac.

    Canelo at 150? Maybe? If he can make the weight....

    That is the most ridiculous statement I has seen in years. Count how many world champions Freddie has trained for Heavens sake. Freddie took over the mantle from probably the best trainer ever Eddie Pappa Smurf Futch.
    Even Freddie cannot fight for his fighters in the ring. Chavez jr was a club fighter with a famous Daddy. Freddie got him to a title fight with Sergio Martinez. Instead of following Freddies gameplan Chavez smoked dope then got his ass well and truly handed to him by fighting like an amateur. Khan thought he knew better than Freddie went against the gameplan & got BEAT!!! Now they want to blame Freddie?????:patsch:patsch

    Pacquiao believes in himself and won't step down, he will place whats left of his career on the line for a chance to regain glory. He has a champions mentality.

    He should avoid it. There are other fights.

    Roach is done as a trainer. When was the last time one of his fighters won? Thank you Roach but its time to step down. And Pac is heading for a disaster in a 5th fight with Marquez. I agree with MAB in his recent interview, Pac should stop chasing Marquez.

    Pac's a warrior in the from of Holyfield. I expect him to want a fifth fight. He'll lay it all on the line and go out swinging. He deserves a fifth fight.

    Right, that's why he is hoping to KO an old lightweight that he is dragging up to welterweight for the 3rd time in a row.

    Because he is a champion. :rofl:rofl:rofl
