    Trust your gut. :yep You can change that "could" to "will".

    Marquez is one of my faves too, but if he bulks up into that slow and bloated "welterweight" frame again he doesn't stand much of a chance. :-(

    obligated to watch the pac fight since our families make it a big night to get together and party. but i ai't paying for the JMM-Pac III.

    I won't give a dollar of my hard earned money to watch Floyd fight somebody else.

    tough call im a big marquez fan and would love to see him finally beat Manny (if it happens)

    But Floyd Ortiz has KO written all over it for Floyd

    Floyd by KO, guess wording was weird

    Ortiz is one dimensional no jab and the 2 times Berto planted and set and fired a right he dropped Ortiz

    Floyd will KO him with the right

    PacvsJMM will be more exciting than any PBFvs- fight.

    You could be right about that which is why I absolutely HATE the fact that this fight will be taking place at welterweight... but no matter what I still consider it a can't miss matchup so there's no way that I'm not throwing down the PPV cash to see this one.

    I would always pick Pac-Man's fights over Floyd's. I see Floyd winning against Ortiz handily and I see pac beating JMM at this point, probably KO'ing him at 147.

    I'd go for Pac V JMM, even although I think Pac stops him this time, I'd still take this over Floyd V Ortiz on the basis that it is more competitive than I think it will be.

    i know the fall out from Ortiz winning was huge and i will get panned for this but i could see Berto winning a rematch

    Berto's legs were just never there

    in the mid rounds he slowed the pace and jabbed on the outside and outboxed him and tried to get him to step to the right

    in the early rounds he got a major deficit cause he sat on the ropes trying to rely on one big punch

    when he decided to box he had success

    and like i said his legs were never there but the 2 times he got his feet underneath him and got off a good right Ortiz hit the deck

    If you feel the JMM vs Pac fight will be "EPIC"...that's your choice dude, I was under the impression that my post was to represent my opinion, my bad man didn't mean to **** you off.

    I think JMM vs Pac is a **** fight, simple and plain, I don't think JMM has a chance at this weight, at his age. I love him as a fighter, I think he is all heart and warrior in the ring, but he doesn't have a chance in this fight. I'd love to be wrong, but I don't think I will be.

    Pac v Marquez 3! It is a very easy decision!

    Their first two fights were borderline classics and there is a solid chance the third will be as well.

    Money v Ortiz is not a dud fight but it has the potential to be a snooze if Money is on song. Not bagging Money but he has never been in a particularly memorable fight in terms of action or bang for buck!

    Even if I'm not a Pac fan there's no ****ing way I'm watching Floyd/Ortiz fight when Pac and Marquez a guaranteed action fight is on the same night. Every time Floyd fight it's always a snoozefest you'd rather watch paint dry its more interesting than seeing Floyd pot-shot clinch run run pot-shot clinch :dead

    I'd watch Pac-JMM and switch to Mayweather-Ortiz between rounds.
