    Both have done so much for the sport and have given us exciting fights over the years. Between these 2 legends who do you think will be remembered as the greater, more accomplished fighter?

    As much as I love Dinamita I think Pacquiao is on another level when it comes to achievement and legacy. Even when he got KO'd in emphatic fashion he didn't let that stop him from continuing his great boxing career. It's amazing how he's still looking good. I guarantee that if it were JMM or any other fighter that got KTFO they would have either quit or would never be the same, but not Pac! He's the epitome of a true ATG fighter, the people's champ.:bbb

    Many think Juan beat pac in all their meetings. I thought pac got the better of him. I think in the draw, one of the judges screwed up and admitted it giving pac the win.

    Juan will always be in the shadow of pac.

    One lucky punch while roided does not bring you above the boxer of the decade.

    Not really a topic of debate. H2H Marquez gets the edge, but resume, Pac beats him all day everyday. If Marquez didn't have Pacs number then this wouldn't even be an issue.

    Marquez needed the assistance of performance enhancing drugs to finally reach the summit of Mt.Pacquiao on his 4th attempt.

    Pac obviously, but there are some room temp IQ boxing fans who fail to understand the fact that styles make facts, and while Marquez has seriously troubled Pac, h2h and resume wise they aren't even close. Simple as that. Marquez may or may not have Pacs #, but it's pretty clear that Pac has the better legacy.

    Though I enjoyed JMM destruction of Pac, I think Pac is the greater fighter based on his deeper resume. Both of them are each other's specialist.

    Pacquiao is greater but Marquez will most likely be seen as the better head to head fighter based on their fights so far.

    Pacquiao, just take out That one Pacquiao win on Marquez's resume. His resume isn't that great.
