    No. Pac wasn't "winning it handily" but neither was JMM having the better of the last half.
    You pisstards can't seem to understand that a punch that lands on the arms is not a "connected punch".
    That was easily a Pac round minus the KO. EASILY. JMM looked slow and sloppy whenever Pac executes an in and out. (Like in 2:16)

    If you want to say differently, please enlighten us by pointing out which parts of the video that you posted you thought JMM connected cleanly.

    But I agree with the OP that this may very well be KO of the decade if the next 7 years won't produce any quality KO's.

    Left hook to the body at 1:05 of the video.

    Double jab and right hand at about 1:13

    Both exchange right hands at about 1:30

    HARD right hand at 1:55

    Right before the 2:00 mark Pacquiao throws a 5 or 6 punch combination that misses with every punch.
    Pacquiao is missing alot and being left unbalanced throughout the latter half of the round.

    Left hook followed by a right hand that takes Pacquiao close to the ropes at the 2:38 mark of the video.
    This is the sequence where allegedly Pacquiao had stunned Marquez to end the round, but if you look at it closely, Pacquiao lands one punch in the sequence which Marquez takes the sting off by riding well with it. Pacuqioa misses with everything else in that secquence then Marquez hits Pacquiao to the body then the head taking him to the ropes where Pacquiao laterals back to reset
    Marquez then backs up, Pacquiao comes foward feinting the double right jab which Pacquiao constantly does btw. What happens at this precise moment that Pacquiao comes foward feinting is boxing history.

    KO OF THE DECADE! LIGHTS OUT!!!!

    No question Marquez has the better of the latter half even if you dont count the KO punch.

    The post that Hatton fell into did a lot of damage though. That has to be taken into account.


    Pacquiao's knockout of Hatton was just chilling. It was so devastating most people weren't even sure Hatton would regain consciousness. Every detail, even to the perfect position that Hatton landed on the canvas was just legendary.

    Type in Steven Smith v Gary Buckland KO on youtube. That was another great KO.

    I think that Pacquiao really looked good in that fight. They both had knock downs, but Pacquiao fought the same way that he always fought. I think that Pacquaio is still a very fast and skilled offensive fighter, whose defense is underrated. Pacquaio had a close fight with JMM in their 3rd fight. There wasn't a roberry like a lot of people say, just a great fight that could have gone either way. It took JMM 4 times to make it definitive. He beat Bradley handily, and he was in another close fight with his mexican twin(up to the KO obviously).


    *****'s just like to take away from Pacquiao now that he lost, but he still gives Floyd problems. To me, it's still the best fight to be made for Floyd.

    Yeah I agree, the momentum was swinging towards Pacquiao, and probably would have stayed there.

    Dumb analogy. Louis was old and past his prime and got KOed by a younger, prime Rocky.

    Marquez even older than Joe was and was cherry picked with the hope that he'd finally grow old overnight and Pac could finally score and emphatic victory.

    The position where Hatton ended in the Floyd fight is even more legendary, if you put it that way. It was right on the big rock star. Pac was expected to KO Hatton after what Floyd did to him. Pac's KO was more sensational and chilling as you say but not unexpected.

    Martinez and Williams are a level below JMM and Pac.

    i'll say that it's the best of this millenium outside of tarver's ko of roy jones. definitely the best of this decade.
