    A question for the hardcore JMM fans. In what fight do you think Juan Manuel Marquez was truly at his best?

    I agree. He was also really good in his two fights with Pacman.

    I thought JMM was better in the second than the first

    I was expecting ppl to say Peden or Medina

    JMM is my favorite fighter by far. He really impressed me when he got up from three knockdowns from pac and came back to outbox him. JMM is Truely great fighter!

    Pacquiao II. I am, obviously, a huge Pac fan, but JMM deserved to shade the decision that night. The way he got up from a heavy knockdown and battled back was just pure guts, toughness, skill and quality. Considering the calibre of the opposition, it was a majestic performance.

    He did fight well in the second fight as well, but in the first, he managed to shake off three knockdowns and to outbox Pac to a draw.. Besides, in the second fight Pac just wasn't clicking, not to mention the extra 16lbs packed overnight didn't help either, being sluggish and all.. JMM fought well against Peden also..

    Definately JMM/Pacquiao1...I also thought he looked bad as hell against Barrera.

    Of his fights I've seen, I'd have to say his best came with that incredible performance in the 1st pacquiao fight. The following 11 rounds after being knocked down by Manny in the 1st round was great stuff. One hell of a comeback even though he only managed a draw on the scorecards.

    I hadn't seen much of JMM before that though. Here was the guy at his best...
