    In which fight did Marquez do better against Pac?

    In which fight did you guys think Marquez did better against Pac. I believe he did a better job in the second fight, what do you guys think and why? I think he was able to handle Pacquiao's speed, and movement better after having been surprised by Pacquiao's amazing abilities in the first round of their first fight.

        Marquez won both fights 8-4 actually Manny looked better in the 2nd fight because he won a couple of the late rounds imo


        if we take the 3 KD out of the 1st round Marquez won more clear rounds in the 1st fight

          With the second fight....Manny had improved quite a bit and was fighting evenly with Marquez opposed to the fight fight, Marquez w/o the knockdowns...would've won clearly. So I say eventho Marquez looked better the 2nd time around, Manny did as well.

              2nd.


              He was down by 5 pts entering the third round in the 1st fight. Pac needed just 3 rounds out of the 10 remaining rounds to secure the victory :shock: w/c without a doubt he did from 7th to 12th.


              2nd fight is closer. JMM did better againts a better Pacquiao. He will always look good againts Pac but it will take a lot of piss to beat him if ever.

                Marquez clearly won more rounds in the first fight, and without the knockdowns there would have been no debate. He obviously did better overall in the first fight, whereas in the second fight the two fought pretty much even.

                  He won damn near all the rounds in the 1st after the second. But the 3 kd's really screwed the W. The 2nd was more competitive round wise, but he still bit the canvas once. But once is better than 3, so I'll go with the 2nd.

                    2nd. I had it 114-113 for Marquez. First fight was a legit draw.

                    The first fight was a memorable performance though. The show of heart to comeback from 3 knockdowns in the first round is impressive to say the least.
