    Not better just the same. The last fight if i remember correctly i had it 8-4 rounds. I think something similar will happen. The weight i dont think will be an issue if JMM is smart and comes in at no higher than 140 on weigh in.

    I see the same mistakes from Pac. The only difference is these bigger guys are slower and just dont have the skills of a JMM. No one has made Pac pay for lunging in. He seriously goes in there and gets away with any mistake he makes and with his speed and power just makes his opponents pay. I think once he gets timed and countered good from JMM he will slow his pace down and it will revert to a repeat of the past 2 fights. I do see a KD though as JMM will get confident and want to trade too much.

    Let's hope you're right so the 3rd fight would actually be a real legacy-defining win for either guys.

    If Pac has the chance, he should go for the knock out and stop trying to outbox this guy. He proved he was too much for Marquez in the second fight after losing the first 6 or so rounds only to get a knock down and up his punch rate. Marquez is too stiff and too methodical. If Pacquiao really wanted to make a statement, he would keep his foot on the gas and never let up until Marquez quit or was laid out on the canvas.

    I actually don't think JMM won as many rounds as people thought in his prime, they would both miss a lot, he just kept his combinations tighter and didn't look clumsy, but when you look at what landed, he missed just as much as Pac. So many of the rounds were swing: Pac came forward with aggression, landed three shots, JMM countered with two. Pac came forward, landed two shots, JMM countered with one or three.

    I scored many many rounds on aggression for Pac in both fights, and the knock downs made the difference. Even giving him a 10-7 in the first round of the first fight, I still score the bout for Pac on my judging criteria.

    This time, he should be able to finish off the older marquez, who would probably not have tasted the canvas against Katsidis if he was still the same guy who fought Derrick Gainer.

    I see an early or mid round stoppage for Pac off a single punch - Mosley still has a great great chin, and one shot rocked his world when he traded with Pac. Pac is much stronger without having to make 130.

    Avatar bet??? I'll make it easy for you. Pac stops JMM, I win. JMM hears the final bell, you win.

    I think Marquez gets stopped mid rounds ... there's no way he makes it to the final bell. This is a statement fight for Pac and he's going to create more buzz for a proposed fight between he and Mayweather. What better way to trump Floyd than to stop a fighter he shut out.

    I'd say 2-3.
    First time he'd get KD'd he would get up, then go down again.
    IF JMM still gets up from the second KD, the ref will stop it after Pac hands him his 3rd and final KD/KO of the fight.
