    And Pacquioa would have busted Marquez' face up.

    Had Pacquioa not tripped, it won't drop him.

    And coming off the KO of the new decade. No shame in working his way back up. Not like Manny was ever one to give immediate rematches himself.

    Manny is lucky that they had smelling salts on hand.

    he did, wasnt that belt from cotto?

    back to topic, I think they have an issue with pacquiao not wanting to fight in the US anymore. Not that pacquiao isn't relevant anymore, he sure isn't relevant but money wise and drawing wise still 2nd to floyd and all others are way below

    What was Pacquiao caring about when he turned down $40 million to fight Mayweather then?

    Was there a banana peel in the ring during round 3?

    Not in lineage he lost to bradley and was ko'd by marquez. If theres anythibg right in boxing he has to fight someone else before he gets a abother shot at a championship. Cotto would make sense and money

    Lol.

    Stupid *******s. Pacquiao has had 4 opportunities to hand out a severe beating to JMM and has got sonned in every instance. Pacquiao spent most of the Bradley fight looking as if he wanted to be somewhere else. If anyone is getting done a favor here, it's Pacquiao...

    That's a legit knocked down, there's no question about it. And based from that, we can measure the extent of power Marquez has. He threw that right hand from his back on full force in full swing on a standing target with his arms barely protecting him. The knocked out was the issue.

    what? Nobody gives a **** about the belts. Manny could have fought Paulie for his belt if he wanted a belt. Stop with the bull****

    Money and pride, probably. That's a humiliating purse for a fight of that magnitude, considering it's like a 10% more than for a run of the mill Pac fight (JMM, Bradley), after Arum gets his. It's basically a slap in the face.

    Juan and Pac have already fought 19 times.

    Bradley shouldn't get in the ring again with Pac, or any other dangerous offensive fighter, for the time being after the damage he took against Provodnikov.

    Wow.

    It's just amazing how *******s pretend as if the 3rd round of Pacquiao JMM didn't happen...

    I find it hard to see why Manny is irrelevant. He took a bad loss against Marquez, but so what, that happens in boxing. Manny has just got to work his way back the way Lennox did after mccall, but I wouldn't say the second biggest earner in boxing is irrelevant.

    Except one judge scoring the first fight 115-110 for Marquez who has been down three times in the first round. And not getting the nod for II and III. On the way to a stoppage in IV until he got lucky.
