    I wonder how Manny Steward would have reacted to the events of this fight... ah that man will surely be missed.

    I just watched it again and the TS has a point for me.There will be better fights but that was certainly unforgettable for the right reasons.
    Just remembering how it felt watching it puts it right up there for me.

    Great finish(KO of the year) but far from a great fight its not even FOTY and wouldnt even make the top 50 fights of the last 20 years.

    The action in rounds 5-6 were the most exciting and drama filled since round 1 of the first encounter.

    the amazing finish...i mean who thought pacquiao would be out cold...many feared the worse... He looked dead on his face. Marquez turning into a beast of a puncher, we all new he had timing and accuracy, but this was concussive one punch KO power. AMAZING
