Pac: "I Underestimated Marquez"

Like the man said. He was unfocused. :yep

But, not this time around because...

"Manny said this time he wants to go back to building power and speed like we did before." -Ariza (via Twitter @ArizaFitness)

hmmm...

:think

Sure Manny. Time to give Marquez his props...

 

Makes sense. Everyone underestimated jmm and pacquiao is no exception.

 

Maybe most posters fell into the hype machine that is Manny Pacquiao!!! He is really not that good of a boxer!

If he so calls underestimates Floyd his ass will get knocked out!

 

Oh well, he underestimated JMM - got the W - got paid.

 

I believe he did underestimate Marquez

they picked Marquez first time round as a stepping stone onto bigger things and thought that knocking him down 3 times was going to be a walk in the park . . . .then Marquez bust Pacquiao up

they picked him the second time because of the nature of the first fight and how Marquez looked in his last few fights thinking he was on the slide . . . . Marquez whooped him again

they picked him a 3rd time because they believed that dragging him up to 147 after how he looked against money and thought it would be easy . . . no

fact of the matter is that Pac has only fought Marquez when he thought he could beat him with ease and avoided him for as long as possible.

 

That's funny...I remember hearing that Pac was training extremely hard, and felt like he had something to prove against Marquez...:huh

 

On the contrary, Boom...

indeed. Not too surprising really. Difference is that Pac was wrong to think that Marquez was smaller than him...


At this point I seriously doubt Pac will ever really get up for a fight like he used to a few years ago. There's a difference between someone who lives and breathes boxing and someone who just does it as a side-gig

 

I actually called before the fight that Pac was making a mistake thinking that his size advantage would be key against MArquez and that it could backfire on him.

 

How stupid do you have to be to "underestimate" a guy who by most accounts had beaten you two previous times.

What a BS excuse!

 

:deal

:yep

 

I say a load of bull.

He wasn't underestimating JMM, his heart is simply not there anymore.
And I pray that JMM put him back to his place so hopefully we can see someone really eager to knock Bradley out.
