imho PAC has been continually improving his game since he fought the 3 Mexican Greats and has fully grown to a 140 pounder body...
it wont be easy but PAC would win more convincingly...
hey ive been wrong before in my predictions and ill probably be wrong many times more. but im going with my boy pacquiao if they fought now. marquez probably can beat pacquiao,he fought him tooth n nail for 24rounds,but i believe if pacquiao and marquez fought 50 times i dont know who would win but i believe marquez would hit the canvas in every one of them fights lol.
I'd favor Pacquaio slightly. JMM looks like he may have slowed down a bit as Diaz punished him pretty badly at times, Pacquaio has been looking better and better although it was against two fighters at a significant speed disadvantage.
Manny because he shows improvements each time he fights and is still 30 and learning. JMM has been in wars in his last 3 fights and they could take a toll at 37/38.
Did you see they way Manny clinched Hatton when Hatton was about to mug him? He hooked him with both arms and pulled him to his chest so Ricky couldn't get off. That's new and I've never seen him do that.
I'd still like to see how JMM will look against PBF.
Right now, Pac by KO @ or above 140. It will be a hail mary, eyes-closed counter punch that will catch JMM because he doesn't mind going toe to toe. And when he goes toe to toe with Pac, he usually ends up on the losing side of the exchanges.
im gonna vote for marquez just because i like em' more, but its pretty much even.
if pac doesnt knock marquez out in the first 3 rounds (when marquez is more prone to knock downs) then marquez would win more round imo.
i mean, the first fight was a draw, many thought pac won.
then they fought like 4 years later, when supposibly pac was way better,
and marquez did even better, only being knocked down once, and in many oppinions winning.
@140. Pac.
Pac was weight drain in the rematch at 130 and with a wrong game plan. was told by roach to double jab (straight left, sometimes left cross), so that's what Pac did virtually all night, so we basically just saw the continuation of the first fight.
at 140 if Pac will just do his thing, he would KO Marquez.
