    in any way??

    at the start of the fight i was thinking that diaz looked so good maybe pac has been overrated slightly over his win against jmm last year, then after the shift in the fight it showed pacs strenght and durability is way better than i thought

    your thoughts

    Nope, reaffirmed :yep

    I'm thinking Pacquiao by decision now and not stoppage.

    I thought Marquez had Pacman's number overall, but Pacquaio's crazy flurries when he dropped Marquez rescued him on the cards

    I suppose I thought Diaz' extra size might hold more sway last night, but he ain't a big hitter anyway, and Marquez actually looked the bigger man.

    I always felt Marquez was Pacman's equal, that's not to say I was confident he could move up as well as Pacquaio has, but at 130 he more than matched him.

    So overall, no, it hasn't changed my take on Hatton Pac... personally


    That said I don't even know what my take on Hatton-Pac is really. Logic suggests Hatton will prove too big and will physically too much for Pacquaio. I suppose that's what I expect. Very late ref stoppage / points Hatton.

    Well it doesnt really affect me coz I had JMM winning both fight lol

    One thing I noticed was the way Diaz was hurting JMM and its a shame the cut happened or it could have been another fighter worn down and stopped for Diaz.

    I hope theres a rematch coz that was the best fight I have seen live, and I've seen a lot of fights.

    JMM shows whay he deserves to be called elite and Diaz might have actually raised his profile even in defeat. Diaz may have won world titles etc but he's still relatively young and I dont know if we've seen the best of him yet. The baby bull's a future p4p#1 imo.
