    I hate to say I agree with Max...

    I hate to make a habit of agreeing with Max, but he's right, JMM may be the best of his era at his weight. He is also right (as was Bob Papa) in saying that Marquez beat Pac in both fights and was ducked by everyone for a long, long time.

    I agree that JMM is the best of his era at his weight, but to rely on his scorecards for the 2 fights? I don't know, I got my own 2 eyes, and it says otherwise.

    Max Kellerman's opinion about the 2 fights carries as much weight as mine, or yours for that matter. It counts for NOTHING! The fights were close and it could've gone either way. Put it to rest and let us respect the judges' decision...

      JMM fought 2 close fight with Pac and lost both fights. Eric Morales is the only men to have beaten, Pac fair and square and he lost his next 3 fights.

      Morales was the best of his era, not Marquez!

        I agreed with him to. I think Marquez is better then both Barrear and Morales. he beat barrera, and i along with tons of others think that Marquez has beaten Pacquiao twice now.

        You could make an argument for the fact that Marquez is still undefeated, which is rediculously impressive.

            Marquez is probably better than MAB and Erik, but he'll be considered equals with Pac. He's the better boxer, made both fights close as **** and could have won either, but couldn't get the decision in 2 fights and got dropped 4 times, so his greatness will be overlooked by a lot of people.

              How could he be great if he got knocked down 4 times in 24 rounds? Even MAB put him flat on his ass!!!!

                And each time he got back up and gave a valiant effort. That is a sign of a true champion.

                I've had JMM rated above MAB and EM prior to PAC's arrival on the big stage. Any version of EM, I would've picked JMM. EM has always had difficulty w/ counter-punchers / movers, and that's what JMM does best!

                #4 EM

                  JMM is great. I will say that, but I gave it to Pacquiao in the rematch

                    He fought very close fights with Pacquiao 2 times, both fights could've gone either way. Accomplishment-wise, Marquez is not on the level of Barrera and Morales but skill-wise, he's up there.
