IMO, its a bad match up at 140 and or 147. Both guys aren't the same fighters they were when they last fought (Manny still on the upside while Marquez, though still great in his own right, can't hang with Pacquiao today).
I don't think it's as much as about the weight as people think. Last they fought Pac regained 16 pounds and had a considerable weight advantage of JMM in the ring.

second fight:
Marquez 141
Pacquiao 145
Potential third fight:
Marquez 145
Pacquiao 148
This fight will suck, not because of difference in size, but mainly due to Marquez not being on the level of Pacquiao, as well as him being fed tailor-made opponents (Diaz and Katsidis) that make him look better than he actually is at this point.
Just watch, the right fighter will definatley make Marquez look his age.

oh and pacquiao hasn't? and I wouldn't go as far to try and discredit fighters like diaz or katisidis, JMM vs Diaz 1 was fight of the year, and the fight with katsidis was also entertaining.
