    I feel on a technical level this fight was miles above any of Pac`s greatest fights, the skill level and IQ were amazing here, what does anyone think?!

    Yes because Pac as well as Mayweather like to drain everything out of a fighter before facing them.

    I think there`s a lot of truth to that but I do think Linares could of beat a prime Pac but Floyd would of been a different story I feel.

    Yeah i think Linares is very similar to Marquez and look at how much trouble Pacquiao had with him.

    Linares doesn't have the chin to take Pacman's punch.

    Linares? Beat a prime Pac? Are you actually serious?

    This Loma butt riding is stupendous.

    Lineares does not have the physicality of Marquez. Also Lineares is a lengthy dude while Marquez was build like a tank. Lineares does not have the signature-overhand right of Marquez.

    I concur, I’m not a PAC fan and I love what I see in Loma but simply no.

    Pac-Marquez II was light years ahead.
    (And then we have Marquez I and IV, Morales I...)

    If you're not a Pac fan, you're not a fan of boxing.

    It's becoming laughable now. Pac in his prime would literally kill anyone from 135-147
