    Gotta admit that I thought Marquez was robbed once again although I probably wouldn't have argued with the draw this time. Thought it was actually a closer fight than the first one. Now if only Marquez hadn't got nailed in that 3rd round. I wonder how many rounds Marquez actually won in both fights? I, like most, had him two points up in this one, and that's with a 10-8 in the third. I wouldn't mind watching both back and re-scoring them. That might be interesting. Then again perhaps I'm just sad!

    It seems very blatant from the posts here talking about prime Barrera beating Paqcuiao that you forget they fought first in 2003 and Pacman battered Barrera into submission, this was the Barrera that had only lost to Junior Jones and Morales and had since beaten Morales and suddenly you speak as if Pacman fights has-beens, what a joke, get your knowledge correct.

    Many qualities make great fighters, in them I include some of Pacmans qualities, hand speed, foot speed, power, head movement, aggression. Yes he may be un-orthodox and over commit but he's a brutal animal with brutal power and he's a crowd pleaser, an increidble athlete.

    Marquez is a very good boxer, better skills that Pac.

    if you think that was a prime barrera in the ring with pac first time round your having a laugh. He had a shocking night and turned in a **** performance. Nice try though-

    He'd actually have to move up to Welter to simulate the weight difference between his first title and such a victory. Can't see him rolling Cotto or Mayweather any time soon.

    Sorry Mr I picked Enzo to win, Pac to stop Marquez in two and claim that Hatton has no lateral movement.... To suggest Pac beat a prime Barrera and Morales is hilarious.

    I think the problem is that due to how Pac fights we wanted him to be something he is not. He is a great modern fighter who has given us some very good moments but I would not have him on a p4p list. He can still pull in the crowds and entertain more than just about any other non american fighter which means a big deal.

    I just hope that HBO or whoever push him and Hatton into fighting each other.

    I'd like him to fight Valero...

    Yep that would be great. Would be a chance for Pac to fight back in his home. Valero needs the big fights and we should be begging for this to be made. Still I would like to see Pacman vs Fatman. :yep

    Hatton beats Pac, pac will have no power above 135 and wont be able to take the punishment. his hand speed will also drop.

    Oh definately... I wouldn't of fancied his chances against Diaz either.. though may have to review that... Watched it the otherday. Campbells tactics were spot on.

    Pac owes Marquez a 3rd fight, JMM was robbed twice.

    i think hatton would batter pacman so badly it wouldnt go 5 - witter though strong defensive opponent may go distance wouldnt like to pick the winner but perhaps go hatton
