    For a guy who believes Pac is on PEDs based on pure speculation only, you'll have to forgive me for not taking this theory of yours - which is also made up of guesses - very seriously, either.

    no ****. so you actually believed that marquez came at fight night at 141 in the pacquiao rematch 3.5 years ago, came to 145 during his katsidis at fight night just several months ago and you believe that he was only 138 at fight night a year ago during his diaz fight?

    i actually don't blame you divac. you might also believe that A-side meth is real and jmm is actually gaining some lost nutrients in his urine.

    also khan is a much bigger money fight than katsidis. it was the option between khan and katsidis not khan and pac. a victory over khan would have made him relevant above 135 and could have actually give pacquiao a reason to fight him at 140.

    Another thing I've noticed with PAC is that he isn't as fast as he was in the 2nd fight with JMM but neither is JMM. Somebody explain to me what skills pacquiao has developed to marquez's counter attack.

    Yes I think Pacman would outclass him like Mayweather did had he never fought Marquez. But fighting him before makes this a close fight.

    I agree:yep As i said earlier, there'll be no difference from the last fight, nothings changed with their respective styles & it'll be rounds 25 to 36 & the one difference will be pac will not be as fast as he was at SF & JMM countering style (regardless of weight) makes this an even tighter fight to call IMO. It's gonna be close & the advantage here def lies with Marquez.

    i THINK IT WILL...

    MOST OF THESE PAC FANS were not on this forum when they fought in 2008...THIS FORUM WAS GOING CRAZY...SAYING HOW PAC WAS SO IMPROVED ETC ETC...

    SOUNDS LIKE THE SAME $HIT I HEAR THESE DAYS..Pretty much nothing has changed...

    In the end it will be a close fight though...i dont doubt this at all.

    Would be a close fight, but I see one or two knockdowns between them. Potential to be another FOTY candidate.

    fight is an enigma for me

    im a huge marquez fan and havent rooted for pacman since oscar

    i think fight one was a draw and fight was a manny win

    for the third fight there are many variables

    history: marquez is the only man to truly have mannys number he has the skill set and the knowledge and his style jsut meshes so well against manny

    going into fight 2 the talk was of how manny had improved blah blah blah then marquez di what he did in the first fight people thought pacman was figured out

    then manny hit this stride of greatness at bigger weights

    will marquez rain on the parade and show pacman as not as improved as we thought again

    who knows

    well above 135 marquez is 0-1 and got crushed by Floyd but that to me isnt an indicator because that was a styles fight marquez lost in a way that manny couldnt beat him by

    anyway marquez is older not used to the weight but he is a great fighter with a great corner hell be ready

    he has been hitting the canvas and has found himself in wars the defensive wizard is now getting hit more and being in these life and death kinda fights

    now anotehr question has manny improved or has his slower less versatile opposition made him look better

    is marquez still capable of handling mannys speed his foot work and timing was what made him successful

    mosley showed manny doesnt handle movement well and struggles to cut off a ring he also is still asucker for the right

    it was not a good sign that marquez was down but is a 135 kats faster than a 147 slowing down manny i dont know

    i expect marquez to go down early from the explosive attack of manny who is most dangerous early

    i expect fight 3 to go two ways

    A- JMM does great wins rounds exploits weaknesses but ultimatley loses like 8-4 maybe 7-5 at best touches canvas

    B- like Clottey and Mosley fight Marquez hurt early discouraged covers up and survives
