    Marquez.

    Because Pac's refusal of drug testing will always be a dark cloud over some of the best years of his career.

        Yes, but arguably Marquez won first 3 fights, and knock Pac out cold. That's why it's tricky

            Pacquiao has accomplished more, fought better fighters and beaten them easier. Marquez struggled for a while with the likes of Juan Diaz and Michael Katsidis.

            Yes, Marquez is Pacquiaos kryptonite. but people act as if Marquez was robbed in all 3 fights, but the truth is they were close competetive fights and if Marquez got all the decisions people would say Pacquiao was robbed.

            So even with the KO loss, I think Pacquiao is the better fighter (against same opposition) and has accomplished way more.

              I would say Pac will be known as the greater fighter. Jmm will be known as his Achilles heel.

                  Clearly many. I love Marquez but the only thing he'll be remembered for is KOing Pac in the final battle. Sorry, but I'm just being real here. I agree with what was said above. Ken Norton is a fave of mine but I'm not going to say he was the greatest just because he had Ali's number.

                    Styles make fights,btw them there style was perfect for each other butt jmm style was smarter the last time but PAC style is was to much for other fighter style which makes PAC the greater fighter all around
