    THE top P4P fighters in the world

    Both near enough prime

    Both fought out of their skin - surely the best performances of both of their careers




    If it happens, perhaps Pacquiao Mayweather will surpass it (depending on how great Mayweather still is after his 'retirement')


    Either way, Manny JMM 2 will be looked back on as one of the most important fights of our generation

    JMM should have won their 2nd fight. 115-113

    it definitely wouldn't be the biggest of of our generation...a lot of people don't even know who Marquez is...

    i will say that i agree.. bec its a fight that really showcased very intersting match up.. 2 different styles.. both men showed skills in the highest level of the sport.. its too tough to call.. could have gone either way.. very exciting from the get go

    I dont think pac-jmm 2 was a clear win either way.

    I had pac winnin fight 1.
    I had a draw in fight 2.

    Maybe the second fight result was justice coz pac only drew the 1st 1 cz of a scoring error

    in a split decision, expect the champ to always win! rule of the thumb.

    Biggest fight in terms of hype will always be de la hoya mayweather.

    If its in terms of ''spectacular-ness'', when Corrales- JLC

    But in terms of skill, i agree that their fight was the cream of the crop.

    That's funny, because I remember that Marquez was the champ. Oh well, guess it didn't apply then now did it. . . . . :roll:

    JMM is a bit overrated and always has been. He is compared with the guys he fought with, but he was never as good as they were.

    That's your opinion. Mine is it is a close fight and it could have gone either way. But I gave it to Pac because of the KDs (one was not counted). This third round made Marquez groggy and disoriented walking to the wrong corner. He thought Roach was Nacho. In other words, Pac did enough to win.

    This is a great fight, but not the greatest fight of our generation.


    Stop whining on who won in that fight. MOVE ON BITCHES!!! We made hundreds of threads about these. JMM lost. Pac won. PERIOD.

    Not sure about the biggest fight but it was one of the best. I had Pac winning 114-113. The knocked down cost JMM the fight.
