If you're JMM would you fight Pac again for the 5th time?

    Agree, I think they were great fights, but it's been decided. I think johnny won 2 of the first 3, and then put the exclamation mark on it in the last one. I would still bet on johnny to win the fifth cus despite how old he is he has the manny recipe.

    Too bad he lost to Bradley and then Alvarado will send him to retirement. He should have kept that good feeling.

    Nope.


    It doesnt get better than the 4th fight.... walk away with that as the final chapter.

    Hmm, tough decision. I think the fire that lit JMM's ass to right what was wrong will n longer be there. The only that Pac has is the title that JMM felt he deserved. I highly doubt he would beat any of the other champions right now, and I don't know if he wants to go through hell getting it. I think Pac is his "easiest" option right now because he knows his style best. I also think he could get KTFO doing it.

    no reason to fight pac a 5th time.

    i thought jmm won the 2nd and 3rd fights. the 4th fight he left no doubt.

    im no ***** but seeing how Marquez's age effects him in his fight against Alvarado and assuming he can still maintain his physical condition from the last pac and even the bradley fight Id say he has Pacs number

    Fight 1 - After losing a close decision to Norwood back in 99, Marquez went onto a 12 fight win streak before the draw with Pacquiao at which point it was believed Pacquiao would steamroll over him and nearly did . . . . but Marquez went to war and earned a draw

    Fight 2 - 4 years later this fight materialises after Marquez loses to chris john and gets dropped by barrera and starts to look older and war torn . . . . . this time round he only touches the canvas once and in my eyes won 115-113.

    Fight 3 - a loss to Mayweather in dominant fashion and dropped by Diaz, Mayweather and Michael Katsidis it seemed Marquez wasnt a 147 fighter so 4 years later again Pac tries to remove the blemish on his record, Marquez controls the fight 116-112 Marquez

    Fight 4 - Drops Pacquiao with a left hook in the 3rd, stumbles in the 5th and then counters Pacquiaos assault with a picture perfect punch that knocks him clean out. Lightning doesnt strike twice let alone 4 times my friends

    I think the Bradley fight was a worthwhile gamble to attempt but he should have retired after that bout. We'll see what happens...

    My judging favors the risk taking aggressor if he is effective ... I always have Pac winning the first two fights ...lots of swing rounds... BUT JMM won the third. He isn't the fighter Pac is but he sure knows how to fight Pac and gets better at it every time - once you figure out Pac's weird feints and timing he isn't as dangerous, and JMM has solved him, but almost got beaten in one round ... and he didn't deserve to lose to Norwood, that fight was BS, and his earlier dq was equal nonsense ... Pac almost steamrolled a guy who deserved to be undefeated in reality in one round. JMM isn't super elite like Pac is, but he has Pac figured out and timed now.

    JMM won the one that matters. All the others were too close to call. Pac was fortunate he had Arum and the Judges on his side. KTFO6 was an emphatic victory! NO DOUBT. Arum couldn't save Pac. Judges couldn't save Pac.

    Only if the money is right. Marquez should demand 50/50. He doesn't really need this fight.

    Of course I won't.
    That KO win over Pac is easily the highlight of his career.
    Anything after that will neither help nor enhance that win.

    JMM should ask for 20 million if Arum wants to make the 5th fight.

    i bet my on my life jmm will never get that ko in the 5th fight that was a pure fluke and the fact that manny was running into it helped him. it was under special circumstances
