If a Pac/Marquez fight at 135 happens...

I think Marquez becomes a stronger fighter while Pacquiao loses some speed.

 

More of the same. Marquez's butt will kiss the canvass again and he will whine and will travel to the Phils uninvited to beg for a rematch claiming he won.

 

It would still be a competitive, close fight, like their two previous fights.

Their contrasting styles, and JMM's man-love for knock downs, will always make this fight a good one.

 

Pac seems more comfortable and so does JMM. Pac's power is still there, and yes he slowed down a bit. But my question is, will JMM's chin hold up in their new weight class?

 

They will always give each other problems, but Marquez is getting older. If this fight happens a year later, I see PAc finally stopping Marquez. If it happens now, it is a close fight where either man can win. I have their fights 1-1 PAc winning by a point in fight 1, and Marquez winning by 2 in the rematch.

 

Well it's still a 50/50 fight for me . . . but basing it on their movements in their last fight . . . it looks like Pac took the additional poundage better. He move and BOXED well and with confidence.

 

Will be the same outcome as the prev 2, close and controversial.

These 2 are the best of the pack at 126 to 135.

What many people do not seem to notice about JMM is his incredible handspeed and I think this (and his great conditioning and stamina) is really why Pac can not dominate him.

 

agreed

 

I've pointed this out many times, Pac is a little quicker getting off a single shot......but JMM's combination speed is at another level above Pac's.

JMM's combination speed is at another level, and his stamina imo is as good as any fighter today.
.....as long as JMM is able to mantain the level of speed and stamina he showed vs Casamayor, he's going to beat Pac everytime.

The higher the weight they fight, the more the edge goes to the master boxer.
As you go up in weight, a fighter does'nt lose skill, but he frequently loses power.


The fight likely does'nt happen anyways, and its just as well.....even without knockdown, I'm convinced that JMM likely gets screwed, as long as Pac is able to put up 4 rounds of competitiveness.

My wish for JMM to close his career is to unify at 135 lbs, and if Hatton is still at the top late 2009 at 140 lbs.......what a way to call it a career with a victory over Ricky Hatton for the big payday JMM truly deserves.

Truly, I'd rather a 3rd fight with Pac not take place. I felt sick the other day reading Pac's comments about another fight with JMM, "anytime, anywhere, but under his financial conditions." :barf :nut

JMM's legacy will shine just fine without the official books not showing a W on the column vs Pac.
Thank God for video!!!:deal :yep

 

i doubt marquez can beat pac at any weight.....although it would be competitive but.....pac's just better then marquez, even if the margin is razor thin

 

Pac already won over Marquez twice. The first time only became a draw because of a scoring guffaw by a judge which admitted to the fault. I'd love for them to fight the third time, but there are lots of other megafights out there for Pac. Hatton, Mayweather Jr., Cotto, Valuev :smoke

JMM should be thankful Pacman made him a legend, I hope he gets to fight Valero or Guzman.
