    Pacquiao should have given Marquez an immediate rematch at 135.

    While he was wasting his time with David Diaz he should have locked horns with the Mexican warrior again. It's sad that the trilogy did not happen. Marquez imo deserved the win in the rematch, and at least deserved a third fight to show what he was about.

      It would've been one of the best trilogys up there with Gatti-Ward and MAB-Morales but it didn't happen... (insert Pacquiao was scared comment here)

        Blame Margarito. He ruined everything when he destroyed Cotto. That's why Pac moved up instead of staying at 135. Oscar was afraid of Tony. Bet he cries over that decision to cherrypick Pac on a daily basis.

          Is that why JMM won the majority of the rounds on all the judges cards?

          Anyway, you're right street bully.

          JMM should've got the rematch but it was clear Arum wanted no part of him again.

          He kept saying "lets build it up" knowing full well JMM was 34 and "building it up" would take another few years.


          Be that as it may, people don't need another Pac fight to know what JMM is about.

            People act like Marquez won by a large margin... They're each other's archnemesis.

                What was the point, They fought twice.

                Both were close fights, and Manny got one close decision. So what?

                Manny knocked Marquez down 4 times within the two fights. If I was Manny I would be satisfied knowing that I had two very competitive fights with the man.

                Can't blame Manny for wanting to move on with his career after two closey fought contest. Its on to the next.

                  Marquez won clearly in the rematch IMO. I had it 115-112, and I am equally a fan of both fighters.
