    That's a nice way to cope with things. Gotta look on the bright side I guess.

    i agree with most of what u said. i dont think hes done. we got to see him in the next fight to see if jmms punch affected him in any way. he looked good. he just paid for fighting too aggressively vs a guy who was prepared to kho. lewis came back from devastating kos. pac can too

    I got flamed by some which I expected, but glad some people gave the thread a fair reading. This forum was hit by a tidal wave of overreaction after that fight, a counterbalance was required.
     
  4. i read your post and you make some valid points. manny was doing well and his gamplan was working. it was "working" rather. jmm and beristain can read pacquiao like an open book. they knew he would come in to try and finish him and in doing so would leave himself wipe open for counters. in the 5th round, after getting dropped by pacquiao, marquez landed the exact same punch that would eventually knock pacquiao out. marquez proved that he is the superior fighter and boxer. he also proved that nacho is a better strategist than roach. pacquiao is just more athletic than jmm.

    :lol::lol:


    THIS ^ ! Close this thread ! :deal

    JMM is the second best counter puncher in the world after the master of defence F. M ! That right hand wasn't a lucky punch as Pac's fans believe. It landed many times before that brutal K.O 6 ! :yep

    Deal with it !
    :deal:yep

    Very sensibly put, to say the least. I kinda have this feeling that i've read this article somewhere though.. :think

    Unless you are the writer, credit to the original site and author is in order.

    Pac died in that ring and came back. We should all be grateful that we witnessed a miracle before our eyes. ******* tears are over flowing.

    You are very wrong. Every word of that was written by me and based on no other article.
