I think he lost 2 at worst. The Third fight seemed like a ridiculous score. I thought fight 1 and 2 were spot on. No doubt at all about the fourth.
I reckon scoring the first fight a draw was fair enough. What an incredible hard man Marquez was getting up 3 times off the deck. JMM was undoubtedly my favourite fighter in boxing however it saddens me to say, that it would be hard to argue against him not on the roids in the latter part of his career.
1-1-2 First fight he should have been given the nod but I'm ok with the draw. He did win the second fight, ONLY due to the KD. IMO he lost both the 3rd and obvious the 4th.
That has to be one of the best comebacks in boxing history, I geniunely thought pacman was gonna finish the job 2nd round and have another easy win on his resume. What a warrior Marquez, imagine Floyd fighting 1 guy 4 times, impossible.
Being forced to train to load up with power shots and play right into Pacquiao's strenghths and have it result in KTFO6 only confirms the greatness of Marquez. KTFO6 pretty much wiped out the nonsense scoring of the first 3 fights and in the minds of anybody with a pulse puts Marquez atop of Pacquiao in every sense of the word. 4-0 or 100-0, doesn't matter, KTFO6 put a stomping pulverization to the dishonesty and corruption in the scoring of the previous fights.
No one had fights with Floyd like Marquez did with Pac so not sure what you're getting at there. Who did Mayweather fight that we'd liked to have seen him face 4 times?
The sad thing is I don't think it would of gone that much differently. I think a younger Mayweather might even have made lighter work of it. Prime Mosley/ODLH would be the fights in which I could see him slipping up.
KTFO6 actually harmed JMM's legacy. Everyone now remembers him as a drug cheat. Literally no one, including you, believes that was an honest victory. Even his most ardent supporters have come around to begrudgingly accept that JMM was doped up.
Yeah Oscar was already washed up and still gave Floyd a hell of a fight, I think younger Pac might have beaten Floyd, I felt that Pac was slower and less dynamic than usual in their fight, I would have loved to see Pac and Floyd fight twice to get a better measurment of both guys.
They would be 2-2 in my book. They were all close outside of the last one where JMM almost put Manny into a coma....but even in that one Manny was punishing Juan only to see one of the most brutal come from behind KOs in boxing history
