    Please discuss.

    39 year old Marquez who is clearly way out of his prime, knocking out a 34 year old Emmanuel Dapidran Pacquiao who isn't far from his.

    Crazy win. Marquez was clearly bleeding out of his nostril, down on the scorecards and then he landed a colossal right hand at the end of the 6th round, knocking Emmanuel Dapidran Pacquiao into an alternate dimension. Pac's corner needed smelling salts to wake him up.

    Many ringside observers/PPV buyers thought Pac died, including myself as Pac was lying there motionless for at least 5 minutes.

    Viva JMM! :wooo

    Insanely clutch and really won the rivalry from that punch. I'm glad that JMM has been so adamant about his stance of never fighting Pac again. It was barbaric yet beautiful at the same time.

    The rivalry ended on that night. It was beautiful.

    If it is it won't be soon when Raymi stops Dutch Boy Samson in round one.

    That will not only be the greatest win of this era, but the greatest win of all time.

    It ranks as one of the greatest KO wins I've seen in 25 years of watching boxing. Just IMO. (There are obviously other great KO wins, but this ranks among them)

    One of the best fore sure, might even be #1. I also really liked Rigo over Donaire but it's not quite on that level.

    I know you love PAC but instead of making this thread about mayweather you should take pride in the fact that someone beating pacquiao is considered the best win of an entire era. Stop letting your enjoyment of boxing revolve entirely around PAC and mayweather.
