    Did u actually say he ducked Naz?

    Congratulations on losing all credibility, not like u hadent lost it b4 but just to confirm

    Funniest thing I've seen on a boxing forum in a while

    Just a side question, anyone claiming Marquez is overrated not a huge Pacquiao fan?

    Why would Pac fans ever want to denigrate Marquez?

    Pacquiao has more or less steamrolled all of his opponents over the last decade minus Morales and Marquez. And while Pac lost to Morales once he reversed that twice by KO. Since coming to america Marquez is the ONLY fighter that has caused Pacquiao persistent challenge.

    Talking him up only enhances Pacquiao's legacy.

    Ohh yes, how many other fighters has anyone seen who got KD 3 times in the first round against the fighter of the decade in arguable his prime and go on to win round 2 and arguably win the fight?

    He was also robbed against Chris John

    Suck it up guys, the fact he was underrated for so long to go on and have his career defining win very late in his career and outshine and outlast 2 Mexican legends who for so long were rated so highly above him speaks for itself

    He ruined Pacquiao's air of invincibility, please get over it and give the man his dues

    Appreciate him rather than make silly threads like this

    well if nobody else is fighting bradley level opposition, and at the same time not beating Pac level opposition they shouldnt be higher

    and that loss did drop him, thats why he's not top 5 anymore

    He is rated where he should be based on his resume, accomplishments and skills.

    yes he did. Marquez was the mandatory for ages but he didn't try to enforce a fight with Naz. i wonder why?

    why, how do you think it went down?

    i can't wait for this.

    "The one fighter Hamed did not want to fight was
    Juan Manuel Marquez!" -Emmanuel Steward who co-trained Hamed.

    This is common Knowleadge to anyone that followed boxing back in those days.
