Who is Marquez going to fight? Mayweather won't happen, stylistically and size-wise it's pointless. Rios wont' generate any money for him. It's either retire, or a rematch where he will make 4x the money he made the other night. People say "Yes but his fire has gone, won't be fair" - well how has Pacquiao coped all these years beating everyone. Mayweather is relieved he's off the table now. He can continue conning his idiot fans with crappy match-ups. Pacquiao v Rios might be worth it but with 2 fights in him, I think it's a pointless match-up. Pacquiao Marquez last night is the best fight I have seen for years, yes, in terms of it's backstory, the guys involved it trumps Rios V Alvarado...the thing is IV was a tough sell, V is now an easy sell - there is just too much interest to know if Pacquiao can bounce back. Personally, Marquez had power, his timing was as good as ever but I think he was being overwhelmed and that KO saved him from being KO'd himself... V is a fight I would pay to watch again for sure...only people who don't want it are Marquez fans (absolutely understandable) and Mayweather fans who don't want Pacquiao to have a chance of wiping this defeat off
Pac-Marquez V will sell more than 1.5M ppv buys. The KO was all over the news, every sportscast showed a footage of Pac getting KFTO.
Tune-up is pointless and will add more wear and tear - they need to assess him in training and make a decision.
Pacquiao need to take a ****ing vacation for 3 months, totally get Boxing out of his mind and system before he makes a serious career choice.
Here in Sydney, which has Pacquiao-Marquez highlights and articles about it which means more exposure if there were to be a 5th fight. Main websites such as Herald Sun, The Australian etc.
A KO like that can affect you for sure. Only Pacquiao knows - looking at the fight overall though, Pacquiao will know Marquez was on the way down - falling foward with your chin exposed - even Mayweather or Bradly have the power to inflict a KO in this situation... But do agree, Pacquiao mentality may change whether he realises it or not. Well, we'll see what he's made of
Marquez vs Garcia Marquez vs Matthysse both awesome fights for 2013 Have no desire at all to see Marquez vs Pac 5. I want Pac to have some farewell fights and retire. And Id like Marquez to retire soon too, but fights with Garcia and Matthysse would be epic.
you have to admit though that jmm was getting beaten from corner to corner inthat 2 rounds or so prior to the last second ko.
khan was beating Garcia before he got ktfo you want a rematch? Judah was whoopin kostya tszyu from corner to corner in the 1st round do you want a rematch? I remember laughing at people who said Hatton was beating pacquiao minus the knockdowns.
