    The mods will not care who the posters are as long as they click the ads in their website. The more posters, the more chances of someone clicking their ads and hence the more money they can earn. It all boils down to money. That simple.

    I've never gone there either. Ironically I got my start posting on MarcoAntonioBarrera.com. I was one of the few filipinos there posting prior to Pac-MAB I.

    Aw, c'mon guys?
    Dont hate the PACLAND? :yep

    Sure, it's Pac Nuthug City, but it's a nice site to visit once in a while.

    It was like my "gateway drug" to the sport of boxing. I joined PACLAND 2004 and it made me get more interested in boxing. I've only got less than 300 posts there but I still go there regularly.

    I like their HEADLINES/FRONTPAGE showing the newest Pacman related article.

    And they got some funny photoshop artists there too. :lol:

    Big surprise! Another washed up great for Pac. But he wont accept a JMM rematch. I would be willing to bet there is more money on that being that the fight already raked in more money than any of his fights with EM or MAB.

    Hey saul, Team Pac already said they'd agree to set up the third fight, as long as it's not at 130 anymore, as long as both parties get a bigger payday than the last fight and that JMM must wait just a while longer, because team Pac is set to face a couple of guys at 135.

    Pac & JMM will fight again. No need to insult another fighter. Just be patient.

    Not Pac's fault.. But the only way JMM gains a victory over Pac is if he pulls off an entire masterclass fight.. Like the rounds 6, 8 and 12.. Pac had his moments, round 3 for the kd, but round 10 was the only round he had any sort of stylistic dominance over Marquez as display.. While Marquez showed stylistic ownage over pac in three rounds. Some round were pretty damned close to even.. I would have been happy with a draw or Marquez winning anywhere between 1 and 3 rounds.. To give it to Pac just shows the fights are being given to the more marketable fighters, or people just cannot appreciate certain aspects of boxing..

    Lets be honest.. Physically and talent wise, Marquez outshines Pac in absolutely NO category. Every tool Marquez used to beat Pac this last fight was learned, and cerebral. That those two aspects cannot be appreciated is outright dishonest..

    Pac, physically is one of the best boxing specimens I have ever seen.. Very few in any weight category were better. Southpaw with top notch endurance, extreme power, great chin, faster than normal hands. Top it off he is actually quite smart and fights a style that takes good advantage of his skillset, but he doesn't take advantage of his skillset to the degree Marquez, or someone like Roy Jones did. Not even close.

    I think Casa will be competitive for the first half of the fight, or at least the first 4 rounds or so, then I see Pac taking over and stopping him. Casa has had his days in the sun, unfortunately for him, it is now setting.

    Casa is soft bellied. Freddy Roach is going to have Pac go to the body early and have him out quickly once his legs are gone. Worse, if Casa moves straight back, like he did for so many rounds against Katsidis, he runs the risk of being knocked out early.. Pac's left cross is every bit as fast as Casa's, and more powerful. Casa throws his straighter, but then they are both soutpaws, so its not like its a huge setup punch for either fighter. Casa only has a slight edge on experience, which is pretty much nothing considering the level of experience Pac has. You could argue Pac is the more experienced fighter quite easily.

    Good fight, glad Casa will get a payday fight.

    PAC is likely the winner which would set up even BIGGER EVENTS.

    casa wins hands down. he has the speed, ring generalship, good-counterpunching ability and style to baffle pac, and enough power to bother him. the biggest advantage comes from his being a natural 135er though.

    bad match up for pac.

    10 years ago, he would have made a somewhat competetive fight. He would have lost his fight against Katsidis, who is basically a simple bull in the ring with no defense..

    What do you think is going to happen when he faces a world class bull in the ring, that does things other than come at you head first? Casa is going to get destroyed. He was seriously wilting against Katsidis, he's going to shrivel up and die against Pac.
