    i think we just saw the climax of pacman's career.

    it will only go downhill from here cause there isn't anything interesting left to do for him. nothing he could ever do from here on out could match what he just did.

    this is the beginning of the end of pacman

    One could argue we saw his peak awhile ago. The KO over Morales was probably the peak, but he can adjust as he slows down. Still a great super athletic fighter but not the killer he was before.

    He should enjoy his status as the best P4P.

    It will be interesting to see if he really does move up in weight.

    When a guy like PAC starts to Gas and take rounds off.. It means it will be over pretty soon.

    Sure he got hit..Marquez is great..great fighter..but PAC was so inactive it was unbelievable

    not saying that he's going downhill physically...

    but from an economic perspective everything is shot. he already beat up the most lucrative fighters out there.

    i mean who really wants to see him fight juan diaz? juan diaz doesn't ring the bell like morales, barerra, or jmm.

    he should retire.

    Great fight....congrats to Pac but my heart goes out to JMM who clearly won the fight in my opinion.

    Always thought JMM was the better fighter, and IMO he proved it again tonight.

    PAC is still an exciting fighter but not the monster the nuthuggers make him out to be. What happened to all the predictions of easy KOs over MAB and JMM.

    Even this new and improved PACMAN was inferior to JMM.

    Maybe, but Pac does hit hard, and Hatton will feel it. But I still Hatton will win. But I have to see Hatton next fight, because Floyd KOed him pretty bad.

    I still don't understand how people are saying this is thee begginng of the end. Pac showed he's learned a great deal. Because he didn't go through JMM and just Koed him he's on the decline? JMM is a hela of a counter boxer. Pac not being stupid and just letting his hand fly like the first fight showed that he is a better fighter and not a fighter on the decline.

    I don't see a Pac decline.

    marquez was also gassed during the championship rounds. that's why he lost rounds 9, 10, 11 and possibly even the 12th.
