    The guy did what he had to do and you gotta give him props for that, JMM is undoubtedly a great fighter! Its rediculous that some people are using this win to discredit Pac (i guess that how haters roll) but being a fan of both this was truly a pleasure to watch.

    I hope they find the time somewhere in the not so distant future to get into the ring for a third time

    well my opinion on Calzaghe is that he is not serious about his boxing anymore, and even before the JMM fight I was ready to bump Calzaghe down because you can just tell he doesn't wanna go through the necessary effort to compete at his highest capabilities anymore. JMM clearly does and did tonight (again).

    marquez is better than Pac. Pac is just exciting but is a level below Marquez in the skillz departnent. All Pac is energy pluz speed and good power ( he didn't start out as a puncher ) BTW he started 7-1 defeat with just 3 KO's. he is an accumulation puncher. But you know there both good at what they do. Marquez to me is just better overall. I am a pacfan. And that's an honest opinion..in their prime. I'd pick Marquez but it would definitely be a tough scrap..

    i have to disagree with you on that one. Pac is underrated in the skills department, and in the other departments like speed, power, and reflexes, he is better than MArquez. If boxing was all about textbook skills then Marquez would have a slight edge, but being that boxing ability goes alot deeper than just that, Pac is still the better fighter. I am a JMM fan btw, but thats just how i see it.

    I think Manny just lacks serious pop. He broke his nose and drop him 3 times. But Jmm got up,. In good condition and pretty much schooled Manny. I think if Manny want's to win he needs to put him to sleep. And prefrebably when there's a minute on the clock not seconds. Jmm got out because time ran out. if it was a street fight. Yeah I'd back manny. Damn Jmm would be on the ground getting pounding ti'll he passes out.

    I hate bias. Why can't people just appreciate all fighters for what they are? Why try to discredit anyone? I just don't get it. Anyway, disappointed I didn't order the PPV, would have loved to have seen the fight. Reading the round by round was intense, constantly refreshing for updates, and when I read that Casa was down I went nuts.

    I don't agree with it, but only because he replaced the "S" with a "Z" on a couple words. I will not stand for that kind of malarkey.

    Sarcasm bites, but he did predict it right. i remember i posted something about jmm having an easier time with Casa than most would expect (I was slightly off) then puga replied he would be shocked at anything less than a KO.
