    Correct, he was officially down vs. Graham, Tiozzo, & RJJ, almost down vs. Curry, & wobbled somewhat in the 1st round vs. Jackson (just to clarify for the record).

    Another guy who briefly had him hurt was Said Skouma.

    The fights below are some of the best technical fights you'll see from a boxing purists perspective. The level of skills along with superb action and drama in these fights is one of the things that make boxing an art.

    It is Marquez.... and this is amazing... I said that before but damn, I could never predict this way back in the 2000s, when he was fighting Robbie Peden, Manuel Medina... Marquez did it the hard way, no hype behind him, no marketing machine no gold medal, no nothing.... he went there and got the best of the Super ATG Manny ****ing Pacquiao !

    As far as greatness, I give the edge to Marquez. His win over Pacquaio, that is just too much to overcome. As far as skills, I would give the edge to Mc Callum.
