Is there much interest in this? i put 50 on marquez to win today at about 3:90, pretty good odds i think as i believe that pacman will need a knockout to win this time, if it is close then i believe marquez gets the nod as the backlash will be too big for another controversial pacman win. Marquez is my favourite active fighter, the only guy to really give pac fits and i rate him higher than morales and barrera personally.
I put money on the match in general finish in under 9.5 rounds (whoever wins). Thought the odds were quite good, and i think both fighters will be on a mission to ensure this doesnt go to the cards...
Yep. I'm really sick of dudes kneeling and praying to their corner prior to results getting announced.
The backlash for Pac already happened in the Bradley fight..they will be looking to square that up..if it's close Pac will get the rub of the green again.
im not so sure, that is why roach didn't want pac to fight jmm again, because there has already been so much controversy that he believes pacman has to knock him out to win, i think pac will come out hard and try to rush jmm but not be able to rely on his speed and quick feet so much anymore, which will allow jmm to counter and punish pac. This is just my humble opinion though, i love these fights as they are just so hard to pick a winner.
Roach is just trying to influence the judges before the fight like any good trainer/coach would do. Their fights have seem to become less frantic, more tactical affairs as the series goes on..this defo suits Marquez..I will watch with interest.
..I'm thinkin' Manny has no choice but to box him..he tried to walk Marquez down the last time but failed..JMM is expert at varying the lengths of his steps backwards and makes Manny walk straight into 'em..it's gotta be the Manny of old to have a shot in this..fast hands..fast feet..in and out.. ..I might chuck fifty on JMM myself..love these fights but..:good
