My first instinct is to give Pacquiao the edge, simply because he has been fighting at 140+ longer and is more accomplsihed than JMM at that weight, and is younger. But, JMM is more skilled, smarter, and just a badass in the ring. His age however is a concern, because fathertime is usually not a very forgiving, so at any given moment a fighter can just be that old where nothing he does will allow him to fight at the level he did in his prime. I see this as a 50/50 fight... ...But what if JMM KO Pac? Where would you rank JMM? Would it do anything significant for his legacy considering most have him winning the trilogy and many have it 3-0 JMM. If JMM trained his ass off, and manages to KO Pac, is it because Pac was past it, or was it because JMM is one of the baddest guys in boxing?
It's not a 50/50 fight. Without Angel, it's a 60/40 fight in favor of Pac. With Angel, it's a 80/20 fight in favor of Marquez. Pac is shot. And will get knocked out.
After seeing a Roid out Marquez...it's a 70/30 in favor of Marquez. Anybody who see those arms on Marquez and say he's not roiding is pretty dumb.
If maquez KOs Pac, he will be #1 p4p in my list for 2012: 1. Marquez 2. Ward 3. Martinez 4. Donaire 5. Wlad Klitchko No more Floyd and pac on the top 10. Pac being KOd and Floyd beaten by Marquez for having no balls.
Pac has been regressing and he relies more on his physical gifts than Marquez. Marquez has been roiding up big time and looks like The Hulk. Pac will lose.
'Roids don't give you boxing skills or "Skills" in general... IF that were true Seth Mitchell would be the second coming of Muhammad Ali
And it's even more hilarious that Pac haters aren't even suspicious of JMM when he has gained so much muscles.
