Pac vs JMM 3 Thoughts...

Some good points in this thread. I'd rather see Mr boat buyer-SSM for the top spot at WW now, before SSM gets any older. He's still game now, so the 'he was too old' excuse would be shit if Mr boat buyer were to beat him. As mentioned already, same shit wit Pac-JMM 3. JMM is maxed out at 140 imo. WW is to high up for both these guys, they're natural rivals, and nobody has decisively shown themselves to be the better man yet. JMM countered very well in the rematch, but may have won it if he was just a lil more aggressive. He had no choice but to do so wit Diaz and looked good doin it, tho he took a lotta punishment. If Cotto and Mr boat buyer crush Pac and JMM, the 3rd fight is tainted cuz both have to move back down in weight and will be damaged. I really wish Mr boat buyer woulda kept his ass at home if he wasn't gonna fight SSM or Cotto.

I was just finished watching Pac vs JMM 2 and J. Diaz vs JMM. Damn these fights are 2 of the best fights over the last year. One thing I noticed about the JMM fighting Pac was that once he landed some good combos (Left Jab, Right Straight, Left Upper or Left Hook), he doesn't seem to continue to flurry once he rocked Pac. I mean after landing some good shots, he'll just look at Pac like saying "how was that?!?".. Then the JMM on the Diaz fight was amazing, still patient... Good combos but after rocking the baby bull he finishes him with more straight rights.. So, when I think of JMM vs Pac 3, I expect a different yet improved JMM. But still, never underestimate Pac.. He's the guy who has the killer instinct.. Dang, this fight should have been made instead of Pac vs Cotto. Screw Floyd, he should have stayed in quiet retirement. jmm didn't follow up against pac but did follow up against diaz because pac hits hard and diaz is featherfisted.

I would actually prefer JMM/Pac 3 to PBF/Pac at this moment. JMM is getting older now and I would hate for Pac to destroy an old JMM. The fight needs to happen this year rather than next, and its a shame thats practically an impossibility. We're probably never gonna genuinely settle the whole Pac/JMM situation and thats a real shame.

I think its about money. Pac is on a different economic level than JMM. So, making JMM-Pac wont happen unless JMM beats Mayweather. Regardless of who wins Pac-Cotto. Because JMM is only targeting Pac, not trying to make a run at "getting big fights". If the fight is in Mexico City.... JMM-Pac will sell out with the quickness. Thats the only way JMM will be on the same economic level as Pacquiao.

I could too, but I think its more Arum than Pac trying to avoid that fight altogether. He hates the Marquez Bros. If he does make it he'll do it in 2010, by which time JMM might be too old to win. Which is what I think Arum wants. How sad if it happens next year. If Pac wins the election, for sure he'll retire. Come to think of it, Michael Buffer will announce: "The Junior Welterweight Champion of the world Congressman Manny Pacman Pacquiao"!!!!! Oh no. :ugh:

love marquez..hope that all this weight he is gainin n then going back down doesnt **** him up

i agree, but I can see why pac may not want the third.
