An Exciting Fight For 2 Rounds, Then Rios Goes Comatose!

Pacquiao is still the man.... he was dogging Marquez on all scorecards when JMM landed his Hail Mary. So much so, Marquez won't extend a rematch to Pac after Manny delivered 4 fights to Marquez; he knows that night would not have ended well for Marquez had he not caught Pacquaio stumbling forward off balance. Rios gets blown out in this fight, then Marquez should fight Manny and the winner gets a rematch with Bradley. Period.

On the other hand, Provo should get Danny Garcia next.

Mike's alwyas been a fan of Pacquiao. He loves exciting action fighters like he was. He too has stated that mayweather may be the best but he wants to see guys who bring action excitement in the ring and that is pacquiao

when mike was a bad man , he was still loved becuase he really was a fighter..not just talk but he put into work...

now that he matured, he's like a huggable bear ..

floyd b1tchass has the skils but he's more talk than proving he's a real fighter..and now that he's old still acts like a 3 year old...

big diffrence...lol

Ya ya ya, would of could of should of. Manny leans forward in all his fights as he faints. Marquez capitalized on his big mistake. End of story pal.

Still doesn't hide the fact it's a **** fight which is obviously bringing a lot of hostility out on people that dislike Mayweather. lol

NO...you are wrong and he is right. MannyP stumbled forward off balance because he tripped over Marquez's foot and fell face-first right into that one-in-a-thousand punch, which happened just at the right split-second, at the right height, and in exactly the right micro-placement. Pacquiao was more concerned with waving his hands around trying to keep his balance and thus left himself wide open.

Although Marquez (and everybody forgets this-of course) practiced how to step all over MannyP's foot and did it about 30 times in their previous fight, the chances of such a thing happening effectively again are very slight. And THIS is why Marquez meanly doesn't want to give him a return fight. We should all know by now that Marquez, even good fighter that he is, is a mean-spirited jealous natured guy.

Just one little point about their third fight; in confirmation of the foot stepping, look at the last round.... You'll see that Marquez placed his foot so firmly over Pacquiao's that when Pacquiao went backwards to try to get away from him, Marquez stepped with him for 3 paces with his foot still firmly on top of MannyP's. Disgustingly bad sportsmanship. But cunning. "Instep heeling" seems to have become almost a lost "art...", but if you read accounts of some of the older fights you'll often see it mentioned amongst common fouls. Most guys reading this post today don't even know what it means.

"TWISTED CHIMP" is a perfect name for you-VERY twisted. And I think "wudda, cudda, shudda" sounds more like you.

Pacquiao needs to fight smart and forget the knockout. This is a dangerous fight if he doesn't.
