Marquez has No chance to Beat this Version of Pacman, I cant see him being able to absorb the Punishment at the higher weights, whether 140lb or 147lbs, doesn't matter, Marquez gets put to Sleep for sure. Got knocked down by lesser fighters, regardless of style, i see Pacman being able to walk right through anything Marquez throws, Manny will not have to Respect Marquez's Power at all. Brutal Stoppage, he wont be able to survive against Pacman's Offense for too many rounds, I see a 1st or 2nd KO 4Pacman. Marquez is a good counter puncher, but pacman is a real welterweight, and hits too Hard for someone as small as Marquez, he shouldn't even fight him, honestly. , But Mayweather WON'T, so what else is Manny gonna do?, Might as well keep entertaining the Fans then, and makin alot of $$$ in the process, not his fault, there's no one else to tangle with really. ....and Mosley should retire, there nothings else to prove, when you get old, its just over, no shame, its happens to all old fighters, father time gets everyone eventually.

Diaz is under-rated, hasn't Juan learned to let others handle the business side. Other than Marquez, Diaz may be the only guy since Erik, who fought pac to win.

The fight better be at least above LW, so JMM can get used to the higher weight

Floyd just got screwed big time. Still, that is his own fault for *****ing out of fighting Manny.

This fight needs to happen for closure.

well maybe all those rumors about Floyd coming back in September will turn into something (be it a fight with Victor Ortiz)

at this point the longer Floyd sits out the worse it'll be for his career, as JMM is lining up to face Pac next.

Floyd needs to save some face, by getting a fight in this year

Although I would much rather have seen a fight against Judah,
I don't mind this fight. After all it is a tune up and he said he will be doing his own promotion on this fight so GB won't be involved.
Diaz will be an easy fight for JMM to shake off any cobwebs he might have, and then be ready for a war against the best fighter in the world.

JMM is going to have to work on movement. It seems that when fighters move it still gives Pacquiao a bit of a problem.

[Phatfarm1980]

Im amazed at just how hungry JMM still is. He wants Pacquiao really badly. But, I am expecting him to slow a little bit and at 140 I just dont see him being effective against Pacquaio - who has become accustommed to fighting much bigger dudes!

Besides the fact that David Diaz is a south paw, fighting him doesn't really help or do much for Marquez, especially if he wants to fight Pacquiao afterwards!!He should try to fight a quick & crafty south paw.. Judah would be great, but the problem is Judah ain't NO push over & it definitely won't be an easy fight or a tune up fight for Marquez..If anything it would be a great fight for the fans, but a dangerous fight for Marquez & especially if he wants to secure the Pacquiao fight..

¿What? ¿Underrated? Pacquiao came out of that fight WITHOUT a scratch!! The last fighter that lumped Pacquiao up is Cotto..No doubt Cotto got pummeled, but he put up a fight in the 1st half of the fight & he tried to win & even thou Margarito also got pummeled & didn't do much damage to Pacquiao(except for that 1 body shot) he also didn't stop trying to win..Definitely last person to lump Pacquiao up before Cotto was Marquez, cause De La Hoya didn't do much to Pacquiao, definitely Diaz didn't do S H I T to Pacquiao & Hatton ONLY managed to hit Pacquiao's fist's with his face for 2 rounds!! But they did come to fight & treid to win.. Now these 2 clowns Clottey & Mosley were the ONLY 2 who went in there to just survive 12 rounds & BARELY or DIDN'T put up a fight at all!!
