    . . . because it's a very very close fight . . . and people has a case to ***** about it. Style wise . . . JMM has it to win those two fights. But he didn't . . . the best he could do is to rise up from the canvas and make it a close fight . . . and on that I'm giving props to JMM.

    . . . but to claim JMM won both fights is just out of nuthugging . . . or hatred for the Pacman. :D

    I think JMM has a pretty significant style advantage against Pacquiao, and for Pacquiao to overcome that and still beat JMM is IMO amazing. On top of that, as time goes on its becoming more and more apparent that Pac really struggled to make the weight in that fight. He was really more fit for LW than JrLW

    None of that is a knock on JMM whom I consider a great warrior and fighter.

    The idea I get is that they felt like they got robbed in the 1st fight (I thought Pac won even though he lost the majority of the rounds on my card) and in their eyes, the 2nd fight would bring vindication for them. It's another close fight and they figure that FINALLY the coin will land in their favor, instead they got tails. So it's like deja vu with 10x the anger.

    Personally I thought it was a draw with the knockdown (7-5 in JMM's favor if yer arguing that)

    Absolutely. Take away his questionable defeats and he's technically been defeated by KO.

    Because they're fans. That's what fans do.

    They certainly have a good case for JMM winning both fights. Pac fans have a good case for winning both fights as well.

    That's what makes it such a compelling debate...both sides have legit gripes.

    Well Marquez has reached stardom greater than Barrera Or Moralles,
    I had Marcquez wining it by 1 point and I am Mexican, but my brother In law also Mexican had it 1 point for Manny, neither of us are bitter because were BOXING FANs HOMIE we love boxing and dam good fights, which is what that was brother.

    WHIch ever way you had it, Ive seen, and IM sure everyone else here has seen horrendous decisions the likes of which make this fight acceptable IN a draw or win for either man.

    No offense to the TS but this is probably the 102th thread regarding the fight. If JMM would not win over PBF on their match up.. expect 103th, 104th, 105th...similar thread. It's getting to be boring after awhile..

    No argument about that. 3rd fight to me is the most exciting fight boxing could have right now.

    Also keep in mind after the 1st fight there was no rest between the 2 sides of who won that fight. The only way we felt would settle the deal is a rematch, Pac fans have a sense of closure and JMM fans dont.

    Im not saying it shouldnt happen but a 3rd fight could probably just be disputed again like the first 2 fights.
