Pac would probably win but a lot of people get too excited, especially after the great fight that happened last night. Marquez would still give pac a lot of problems and everything he could handle.
If it's not Floyd next I really want it to be JMM for a third and final decider.
I think Pacquiao wins it quite widely, not sure about a KO though. But considering the debate about who won their first two fights Pacquiao shouldn't leave this to debate and conclusively end the talk. Marquez does give Pacman tough fights, but he's getting on in age and Pacquiao is looking even more dangerous at WW. At LWW I just don't see Marquez winning it, but it wouldn't totally surprise me if they had another close encounter, they seem to bring the best out in each other.
I think pac is just as fast as he was at 130 not faster and carried his power, meaning his shots that hurt welterweights now had the same effect on superfeatherweights then. I think JMM still gives him problems because although pacquiao actually thinks about where he is landing his shots now, i think he still grows impatient when someone isnt just willing to stand there. I see why people say marquez wouldnt stand a chance but at 140 i think its still a good fight. Only thing is i think mayweather-pacquiao is too huge a fight to outweigh a marquez fight.....
Exactly. Cotto has no where near the skills that JMM has. Cotto is a 1 dimensional sitting duck compared to JMM. Why the **** do people think JMM was p4p #2 of the world and Cotto is barely in the top 10? JMM would still whoop Pac's ass.
thats a bold statement! I agree with in that cotto isnt as skillfull as marquez, but pac seems to have improved so much since marquez in every departmant. Marquez win? I just cant see it!
Pacquiao has greatly improved his speed, footwork, and power. He can knock people with his left and right hand. Marquez will not stand a chance a against him.
Marquez would still give him problems. He just has the skills to fukk with him. Probably Pacquiao by SD since Marquez always falls on his ass and loses points.
Marquez would get destroyed today, for many reasons:
1. Pacquiao has improved heavily since the second fight with Marquez.
2. Marquez is older now.
3. Marquez is a little slower now that he has gone up in weight.
They were even a year ago, but it's a different story today.
as intriguing as it seem. jmm is already at the twilight of his career. he has lose a step or two. the serious beating he took from pbf may have adverse effect on him -- at this stage of his career..right now, pitting him against pac doesn't interest me. i'd say jmm goes back to 135, clean the division then retire happy. for pac -- bigger fish to fry.
Exactly. Cotto has no where near the skills that JMM has. Cotto is a 1 dimensional sitting duck compared to JMM. Why the **** do people think JMM was p4p #2 of the world and Cotto is barely in the top 10? JMM would still whoop Pac's ass.
but u gotta admit pac gave JMM a run for his money with the 2 controversial fights..JMM is still JMM, pac has excelled skill wise, dont u agree?
so if they met now, it be a whole new/better pac?
Man fans just dont get it. How can people not see this. I dont care if they fight at MW, Pac aint running through JMM because he is a superior boxer that has the style to give Pac fits. I hate it when people see one guy do something and another guy do something else, then they assume that the other guy will now kill him. It doesnt work that way. You guys are crazy if you think that just because Pac is killing those guys and Floyd killed JMM, that Pac would kill JMM. He wouldnt. Say what you want but JMM is light years ahead of Diaz, Oscar, Hatton, and Cotto in terms of boxing. Light years and that hasnt changed. He will always give Pac fits
