    lets no go overboard, JMM has not proven to be a great ww or jww. a great fighter and Pac's nemesis, yes

    Boxing writers. Not boxing experts. Fat Dan and Gabe Montoya prove the two don't go hand in hand. ;)

    Still though, it's irrelevant. The majority voted Marquez. Logically, if there was more than the hundred, or two hundred votes, the % vote for Marquez would be even higher.

    I would agree but beating Manny in such a fashion has got to mean something.

    Though I get your point.

    Pacman was doing well and on his way to a TKO win against JMM when he made the silly mistake of sticking his face in to get blown away.

    He lost twice to JMM and won against Bradley, IMO he is still doing very well.

    not a majority:

    Among the unofficial scorers above, 57 scored the bout for Marquez, 51 scored the bout for Pacquiao, and the remaining 36 scored the bout a draw.

    see, more had it a draw + Pac, by a good margin. if you average these out, I bet it comes out to 114-114 with any sane rounding. that's a textbook draw.

    Draw + Pac? :blood


    More voted for Marquez winning, than Pacquiao winning. Draw is irrelevant in terms of WHO WON. Thus, the majority of voters voted that Marquez won.

    2 of his last 3 were against one of the greatest boxers alive

    he looked great in his last fight til the KO

    unless that punch has ruined him, he's nowhere near finished

    definitely...fighting sexy sergio fedchenko and the young hungry lion likar ramos proves your point very well.

    and oh...floyd's osdt offer of 24/7 365 was something to really admire and pac never agreeing to be tested proves he's suspicious.

    I hope not. We've seen many great fighters bounce back with success. He still deserves a Floyd fight too. Floyd's seen him decline a little in his last few fights (not as fierce, letting his guard down, going easy on opponents so to speak) so is he scared shitless of the guy or what now?

    Floyd pulled jmm up two weight divisions and cheated him on the scales so... no :nono Floyd is naturally a few weight classes heavier then JMM also. They had no business fighting eachother.
