    Or a catchweight, even so at these weights surely Pac will knock out Marquez?

    Mannys more powerful than ever and Roach knows it's a good chance to set straight the Marquez ???'s on Mannys record.

    It's almost unfair on Juan after meeting Manny on equal terms in both fights to ask him to move up for the third.

    I see no reason for this to be above light welter, that would benefit manny too much.

    He deserves to get abused as much as Floyd did, even more because Manny has serious power, whereas Floyd wouldn't really risk to do serious harm cos of his hands.

    probably at 140. Above it, it would not be a contest.

    But at this weigh, it would still be competitive because Pac will always be the aggressor, unlike in the Mayweather when JMM was the aggressor against a counterpuncher.

    However, the difference is that Pac is more confident with his right hand now, considering that he KD his last two opponents with the right hand.

    Didn't JMM say he is strongest at 140?

    140.

    Pacquiao probably couldn't make 135 comfortably now, and Marquez looked bloated in a welterweight fight.

    I would rather see Pac / Marquez than Pac / Foreman or Pac / Malignaggi

    If not now, when?

    Pac / Marquez 3 at 140. Pac should win this fight by KO.

    It will probably be at 140.

    I'd love Marquez to get the win over Pac that he deserves.... IMO he has 2 already, but hey ho - above 135 he gets beaten up, probably stopped.

    :-(

    Could JMM beat the No 1 man in the JWW division Bradley, let alone the possible No1 WW Pacquiao....


    Juan KO'd Diaz at Lightweight but Diaz has not looked as formidable at JWW.
    Could the same be said of JMM at the weight? We don't know, but we do know that Pac is head and shoulders above anyone in this division.....
