    Pacquiao was prime from 2003-2009. His best weight class was featherweight too.

    Hell yea Pac was past prime during the Marquez knockout.

    I did not see an excessive amount of clinching sorry just my thoughts and I can't stand clinching though I do understand its place in boxing. The clinching was moderate.

    Forgive me if I'm wrong now but years ago when I was a mod on a forum & a chat host on AOL It was our job to assist new members & keep the forum running smoothly. Lately it seem a couple of Mods have started a gestapo type campaign merging threads so it is impossible to follow any of them.
    Also there was a spell of people getting bans for supposedly using banned words. But no one tells you what bad words youre supposed to have used LOL. This is a good forum I'd hate to see it ruined

    We all not the hugging destroys the essence of a boxing fight.
    It should not be part of a boxer's defence and denies a boxing fans of a real fight.

    There is no gray area here, it should not be allowed

    Marquez was ALWAYS older than Pacman and beat him 3 out of 4 clearly. Outboxed him and knocked him out. So actually Dinamita has the better wins, he beat all versions of Pacman. Marquez wasn't damaged goods like Morales was.

    Marquez was a technician by having to fight pacquiao without too much hugging

    I think more GRAPPLING (not clinching)should be allowed. But maybe I say this from a bias perspective, since I would be more of a brawling wrestler in the ring than a straight boxer. I don't think it would have made much of a difference yesterday tho, since neither Pac or Floyd (well I guess Floyd to an extent) are known for grappling.

    That being said, they should allow more grappling in boxing like in the old days. A good tussle is necessary when some douchebag tries to hug all the time.

    Mayweather hugged like he had never hugged before.
    The only fighter to master the art of hugging

    That's Pacquiao's fault for liking the hugs and not doing anything to stop Floyd from doing so.

    Maidana didn't even let Floyd try it.
