    Duane T Ford has a rep of scoring for who his superiors tell him to score for.

    For some Marquez fans, it's therapheutic to have a good cry every now and then.
    We need to revisit this fight once in a while.

    and everyone of those 10 fights will be disputed too!

    Good call on Marquez improving as well, Marquez has been on the down low while Pacman received all the fame since the first fight.

    These 2 are up there with one of the greatests rivalries in the sport.

    Its my favorite fight ever. I've watched it so many times and even watched it in Slowmo from top to bottom

    For me it was ALOT better than the first one. Both fighters improved much and came in top condition. However looking back with hindsight there is a possibility that Pac was cutting too much weight.

    this one and the brawl in montreal

    We'll I dont want a 3rd JMM-Pac fight.....if JMM conquers mount Everest, I dont want him waisting his time and energy against a media darling......

    ....if GBP has any sense, they'll seize the opportunity and match JMM up with one of their own at a catchweight......Shane Mosely for his Welterweight crown......

    .....the way I see it, a win over Mayweather puts JMM in a plain with Julio Cesar Chavez, then a win over Mosely puts him in a different stratosphere never seen before by a Mexican fighter.

    I dont believe either JMM or Pac can hang with true welterweights at the top of their game....

    .....but Mosely imo has alot of holes to his game that either JMM and Pac can take advantage of.
    .....so legacy wise, going after Shane Mosely imo would be a wise move.

    Pac is much more than just a media darling. If anything Floyd is more of a media darling than Pac.

    you should know that.

    The media does not like Mayweather......

    The media loves Manny Pacquiao.......

    ......that very well turns into an unfair advantage for an opponent if the fight goes to the scorecards.....

    Mayweather is more of a media *****......he manipulates the media.....but he's not a media darling.

    Manny Pacquiao 'is' a media darling.

    no the media does not hate mayweather. He goes on dancing with the stars and WWE and does AT&T commercials. The media loves this guy. He's flashy, he's controversial, and they love it.

    Pac is probably a media darling in the Phillippines but in the rest of the world he's just an incredible athlete. He's not a media personality.

    Ten years from now Pacquiao-Marquez II will be the new Lewis-Klitschko.

    ****, it might already be.

    I want the 3rd fight to be at 140, Pac's Power is perfect.

    Hopefully JMM can carry his power up as well (if it's made at 140).
