This is the only fight left for Pac besides Floyd. Pac can retire after this fight if floyd remains in hiding.
They all say manny is a different fighter. His calfs might be bigger and he might hit harder now but as far as technique. Same ****. Mosley fight showed that. Marquez has also been doing wonders with his uppercuts recently. I will be stoked for this fight :happy
They will have one less ammo to hit Pacquiao with. No more 'he doesn't fight guys coming off good wins' cheap shots. Slick black fighter - check Coming off good wins - check Not old and washed up - coming soon
why are people saying that above 135 jmm is not effective? his fight night weight for the last two years has been in the mid 140's. sure he didn't look good against floyd, but who wouldn't.
May not faster than JMM at lower weight. Remember he said Judah was supah fast. I seen the Judah/JMM tapes JMM much much faster.
Only ***** dick riders hate this fight out of embarrasment to the fact that Void has dissapeared up his own arsehole & only farts every now & again on twitter to let you know he still loves all his deluded fans & has'nt forgot about them & will fart some more when a tax demand is imminent & he'll have another tune-up fight against another cherry-picked opponant & you ****s will pay him & as he's publicly said "He feeds from your table" Wankers the lot of yer:yep
Well, it happened 3 years ago atsch later that year Pacquiao went up to fight DLH It's a good and competitive fight !
It's a Pacquiao fight so automatically it will be hated on by certain sections. Doesn't matter many of these same haters were crying for it over the Mosley fight, and were accusing Pac of ducking Marquez because he wanted nothing to do with his style again. It's an intriguing fight, with history and a rivalry behind it. We'll see if Marquez can be as effective and pose as much of a problem against the best and strongest version of Pacquiao. Definately will be buying it.
Personally, watching his performance against the likes of diaz and katsidis @135 (i was expcting him then to handle those guys with ease as those two are tailor made for his style) made me believe that he'll have a hard time competing at the higher weight, add also the age factor.
All good points...I just don't like the matchup at this weight. If the 3rd fight was going to happen, it should have happened right after the Hatton fight at the latest.
I think Marquez weighs in no heavier than 140. I wouldnt put too much stock into his performance with floyd.
