Before you Pac dicksuckers start start going crazy over the thread title, I had the fight a draw, but could see Pac winning and I'm not disputing the decision. I'm a fan of Manny Pacquiao as well. He was strong, fast, his boxing skills have vastly improved. He showed a decent jab and was able to sneak his right in various times. Dude was the beat he normally is.
But Juan Manuel Marquez showed that age was just a number tonight and will and heart can be just as valuable as physical attributes and advantages. That sweeping left that he landed after a combination was VICIOUS. That was the FIRST time I have seen Pac hurt. He was even stumbling a bit. It was no question that JMM was controlled the majority of the rounds and by majority, im not talking about a landslide but, just more than Pac. He landed more punches and his % was STILL higher. Unfortunately, Pac landed very many hard and effective punches. Juan though, wow. Tonight, Juan fought an AMAZING technical and aggressive fight. Fuck all of those elitist "pure boxing fan" faqqots consider him a "brawler" just because he is also offensive minded.
Anyway, congrats to Pac. I cant wait to see how he does at lightweight. As for Juan, I dont think this loss damaged his stock much. The decision seems to be heavily disputed and I think Mexican fans will embrace him even more now after a brave and amazing performance. One thing I am certain of though, I am very proud to be a Juan Manuel Marquez fan.
LIke I said in another thread, I believe if this fight had taken place at 126 as the first fight did, Marquez would've had the advantage. Cause Pacman came in so heavy, his chin was so hard to crack. If Pack was at 126 Marquez would;ve had a better chance of putting him down. He hit him with a lot of punches and Pac took them well and Marquez can punch. And then Marquez gets up from the left hook that sent him to his ass. Wow. I saw it a one point win for Marquez. I would've liked to see another draw so both fighters keep their dignity. Pacman wins fine, I am little disappointed for Marquez though.
JMM did hurt manny though. i forgot what round it was though but manny was stumblin a bit after a sweeping left.
If to take the fight RAFA & Israel like 40.
I would give 36 for Pac vs Marquez, beacause there was no 12th incredible round like in the Vazquez magic win.
thanks bro...
i have not yet seen the fight but now i have a very high expectation what to see...
question guys...

Damn this is your 5th Thread about this Fight...
This shit must be Hurting you right now...
BTW I HAD THE 12TH Round Pacquaio :lol1:
I like to discuss boxing in general. I talk about every fight that happens with every fighter. Something you obviously know nothing about. What I find funny is how you call yourself a "boxing fan" yet 99.9% of your threads are about Mayweather. You actually think people respect your opinion on boxing? You must obviously care because you go all out to try to get your point across. I love Boxing. You love A boxer. The only one that hurts is you.
Great post man. But I'd say it was back and back on who controlled the fight. Pacquiao countered alot more times than people seem to give him credit for.
I agree that's what made the fight so good was each guy took control only for the other to take it back. JMM for his age was amazing, especially when I felt Pac looked better than the first fight and has improved quite a bit since then.
Both were incredible tonight, warriors in the truest sense. That being said, I disagree with you when you say Marquez controlled the fight. Absolutely wrong, Pacquiao bought the fight to Marquez the whole night. Marquez's jab was nowhere to be seen and he hesitated the whole fight to even throw. He just countered the whole time. Of course he's gonna have a higher %.
Close fight, Manny did enough to win. Marquez brothers need to show some fucking class.
