    In their second fight ...

    It seemed like he had the advantage on Pacquiao when he was going to the body and it looked like it was slowing Pac down ... but then all of a sudden he stopped and eventually got knocked down?

    Well JMM is no spring chicken. I still thought that JMM won.

    I know that Marquez is no spring chicken but he was so effective going to Pacquiao's body and hurt him several times ... a couple of times was when he paid close attention to the body.

    youre on a thread parade today fitz.........I think he stopped when he got tagged in the 3rd by the left he got on the inside to throw those body shots and he knew there could have been a counter right after it so it was risky

    I think it was the right hook ... I'm going through some of my fight tapes and I got to wondering about this fight in particular.
