After Pac-JMM I, JMM made the 1st biggest mistake of his career by walkin away from the rematch and instead opted out for Chris John for less money and ended up losing the controversial decision. In the meantime, Pacman continues his rise to stardom with the Morales trilogy, Larios fight, etc. while JMM is climbing through the ranks again. If he would have rematched Pacman immediately, Im more than positive that JJM takes it 100% against that version of Pac. But then they finally rematch, but now Pacman is very much improved from when they first met.
Now in the rematch, he makes his 2ND BIGGEST mistake, although it is more of a misfortune, by getting knocked down in the third. Without that knockdown, Pacman most likely draws or loses without any controversy. Remember that JMM was one of the most feared mexican fighters at featherweight after the PAC-Barrera fight.
Take away these two mistakes, and where is Marquez today? He's probably one the the biggest draws in boxing today, although fighting at lower weights still since he isn't chasing pacman. Both great fighters and it's nice to see that both are at the top of the boxing game today.
