Can't wait. I just hope Marquez actually does well. He doesn't look good at all out of his natural weight class.
Marquez by 12 round decision. He doesn't have to put on the weight. He can come in at 140 and do just fine. Manny is going to get pulled into deep waters an he is going to feel like he is back in 2008. I will be going to this one.
If a drained pacquiao can make it a really close fight with marquez then manny from today should get the win. I think he will win a 8-4 decision in his favour, it definitely wont be the hatton ko people here seem to think it will be.
California's tax structure makes the big fights move to Las Vegas. The fighters would have to take a 12% state income tax hit to fight in LA. Of Manny's 20 million, CA would take 2.4.
tell that lazy mexican to take the 4 hour drive to beautiful Las Vegas. Nobody in their right mind is going to fight in California. The refs suck, the athletic commission sucks, the taxes...SUCK.
If JMM dehydrates water 10lbs to get down to 135lbs, rehydrates fight night to 145lbs VS dehydrate to 142lbs, rehydrates to 146lbs fight night, why would he slow down? He's the same weight, just not dehydrated. Its commonsense. Now if he tries to get cheeky, bulks up 5lbs of muscle or not loose the fat so he goes up to 150lbs, dehydrates 10lbs of water to 140lbs, rehydrates the water back to 150lbs for fight night, then he may slow down. Then thats his fault.
JMM & Cotto is my favourite fighter to watch from a technical POV. Hes reliant on technical skill rather than god give talents, ie PBF & Pac.
Looking forward to it, this fight should've happened a few weeks ago, but better late (though not too late) than never.
