Pacquiao - Marquez 4 Analysis/Possible Outcomes

Did Ariza work with him for the Bradley fight? I thought they were still working out together...

 

Another robbery or even a legit loss is not going to devestate me.

Marquez is 40. Everything he's been doing the past couple of years is just icing on the cake!

No vendetta here, I'm just telling it like it is! :bbb:bbb:bbb:bbb

 

Robbery wont happen.

Surely the whole point of the 4th fight is to give Marquez his victory? I don't see it any other way. #BoxingPolitics

 

Marquez should win. Hopefully no robbery this time.

 

Aint going to happen. Marquez needs to dominate at least 10 rounds and even then there's no assurance.

Dominate 12, he might secure a draw! LOL!

 

Good first post :good

 

The Bradley controversy put a wrench to that theory maybe having some credence.
Judges have short memory spans, which is why they let themselves get conned into giving a fighter a round for landing a hard shot the last seconds of a round when the other fighter clearly won 2 minutes and 50 seconds of it.
Judges are both dishonest and inept its become funny! :nut

 

Ariza is in camp, they're working together on strenghth and conditioning.

 

deal:deal

It makes sense if JMM wins for Arum.

Sets up a fight for Bradley vs JMM and Pacquiao vs Rios :hey

 

The Bradley fight bombed with Pacquiao, it would have to be on free HBO for Marquez.

Add to that, another Pacquiao loss and Pac's stock drops even further on the PPV market.
Not to mention a Mayweather-Pacquiao possible fight gets tossed completely out the window.

The problem here is that if Pacquiao loses, he's a dimished on the PPV market. I dont see Pac-Rios doing more than 1 million PPV if Pacqiuao walks in there having lost to Marquez.​

 

nono:nono He tried that in the 3rd fight and it didn't work out well for him. The more tactical and quiet the fight is, the more it benefits the smarter fighter = Marquez.

Pacquiao needs to throw that tactical stuff out the window and bring the beast back, try to overwhelm Marquez with his speed and aggression and not give him enough time to think. Yes, he's gonna get countered but he needs to take the counters and keep coming, keep the fight at a fast pace to make Marquez's computer-like brain start to lag.

 

Any more thoughts on how Julie Byrd's scoring might affect things here, Div ?


Do you think the "conflict of interest" case will provide JMM with an avenue of appeal if it doesn't go his way ?:yep

 

:rofl

 

honestly the only way I can think of Pac getting a decisive win is if he goes for broke on the offense like the old Pac. It's also the best way for Pac to get KTFO or at least dropped by a Marquez who has gotten much stronger at the weight, and I can definitely see that happening if Pac chooses to fight this way.

Any other approach will get either a UD win for Marquez or another controversial decision for Pac.

I'm definitely leaning towards JMM in this fight.
