These two skill wise are neck and neck.
We won't see a rematch then. We can't do ****.
As much as I would've wanted to see a third fight.

Probably because they knew if anyone was going to get a dodgy decision it was going to be Pacquiao and that they would prefer not to have to rematch him again. Rrrrrr....It's very unfortunate especially as Marquez was the champ and Pac the challenger that everything goes Pacs way and he gets everything he wanted while the actual champ is the one making all the concessions and getting the dodgy deal and dodgy decision. The concessions that Marquez did have to make really were very unfair and it stinks that he won't even get a rematch after what's happened. After all, Pac did get the rematch clause in the first fight...and against Morales. Why not rightfully give Marquez one?
A rematch is most definitely in order! It's really the only major fight that makes any sense for Pacquiao. The second fight was called 'Unfinished Business" and I think it's even more unfinished now than it ever was.
Theoretically it would be Pac who is up yet in my, and many others, estimation it is Marquez who is the better fighter so far and who should be up at this stage. Hopefully there will be a rematch to settle it once and for all.Last edited by BennyST; 03-24-2008, 01:58 AM.
