    Do you agree with Burner .............

    Do you agree with Burner when he says that Manny has not improved that much from the 2nd Marquez fight? im not gonna quote him word for word but he seems to be saying that its the opponents he has been fighting that have glossed over his technical flaws but those flaws still there. Do you agree.

    I think its valid TO A DEGREE. To say he has not improved and that its just! the opponents style is a bit over the top imo, but i myself dont think he has! improved all the much DEFENSIVELY, so in a way i can see where Burner is coming from, albeit he is not giving Pac enough credit for the fact there are clearly certain aspects of his game that have improved. I also think Burner is right to a degree when he says that a lot of Manny's recent wins are guys who are made for his sharp shooting style, not that its the only!
    reason why he is beating these guys.

    Marquez fight was in 2008, its only 2009 now. Pacquiao got a draw against Marquez in the second fight on my card, knockdown being the deciding factor, however if i was to run with who i felt deserved to win that fight i would of said JMM.



    So what is you take on this?

    Fine i'll agree with him but then we cant give mayweather any credit for beating a blown up, one dimensional brawler.

      Giving credit and talking about improvment is 2 totally different things

        It's hard to say, his last three oponents were tailor made for him in some aspects, especially Miguel Cotto. but we won't know for sure until he fights Floyd.

          I disagree but the real quesion is,

          Will Pacquiao resort to his old self when faced against Mayweather?

            That is why I asked that question, one above.

              I think has made significant improvement, but Marquez just has the style to give him trouble.

              Burner dislikes Pacquiao, it's crystal clear now.

                Yeah, that's the question, and no one can answer it until we see the fight.

                  Also it needs to be noted that Pacquiao is better at fighting southpaws than right handed fighters.
