    Its a fact:good I believe its the main reason why Donaire is moving up in weight...It sucks how some fighters marginalize themselves(also see Felix Sturm)

    I know this guy is almost in retirement but technically, he's still active...

    I'm talking about Tito Trinidad... This guy never ducked anyone!

    the way you are thinking pac will the All Time Greatest Ducker!!!

    I bet if mab decides to return in the ring and ask for another rematch with PAC and Pac chooses to fight another boxer you will then again say PAC is ducking Mab! :hey

    That's rigth! Whoever is NOT CHOOSEN! The boxers fans which was not choosen and the pac haters will ALWAYS claim that Pac is ducking them! :yep

    Marquez wants a rematch right away after Pacquiao just won the rematch and its a duck? sorry, no

    Pacquiao cannot wait around for Marquez his entire life. He wanted to win a title at lightweight and has plans to eventually fight Ricky Hatton. Marquez was not ducked, he was given his shot and missed out, and now to get another shot he will have to earn it again.



    Pacquiao fought a prime Marquez when he was arguably the most avoided fighter in the entire sport. He fought Barrera, Marquez, and Morales, moving up 2 divisions in less than 18 months.

    Of all active fighters, he is the one who has ducked the least even though since his win over Barrera he brings more to the table than anyone else.

    It's almost impossible to tell who "ducks" who because nowadays most fighters are run through promoters who put protecting their interests above putting on a good fight. Most guys under Arum have no say in who they want to fight...so they'll "duck" who Arum decides they should duck or not fight.

    I wouldn't be surprised if 10 years from now, people are saying Pavs ducked Winky Wright.
