    I think JMM will be competitive..

    I think JMM pride won't allow him to not be..I think his style is made to give Pac a hard time,I don't know I really don't see Pac having an easy time with JMM..Thoughts...

    I hope JMM doesn't get hurt. He looks slow at this weight. It seems he just moves up to get the two biggest checks he ever made. Oh well.....

      and before someone suggest floyd is also a bad syle match up for pac, floyd does not fight like jmm alto he is more physically gifted than jmm...

        I just think JMM willingness to die in the ring is what's going to give Pac so much trouble as well..We know what Pac's coming to do,that will play right into JMM hands imo...

          i think it has a chance to be good

          pac ha improved but he still maks the same mistakes that jmm was able to capitalize on

          it depends on how much jmm has left in him and i think he has enough to make it interesting

            I hope you guys are right but I have a hard time seeing it at this weight class. JMM is older and slower and Pacquiao is having one of his best training camps and the fight is at his best weight. This fight will truly show just how great JMM really is if he can make it competitive or even gasp... he can win.

                I know but it brought me back too the other two epic fights..And truth be told(as someone mention in the thread alraedy)Pac makes the same mistakes..In this case(of Manny and JMM)styles make fights,their styles are a match made in heaven imo...

                  Pacquiao's move up in weight and better conditioning will and should prove that they are not on the same level anymore. I know we shouldn't compare different fighter's performances and styles make fights, but with Mayweather blowing out a Welterweight Marquez, I would expect nothing less than a stoppage from Pacquiao. It could be competitive in the beginning but I think Pacquiao will eventually bust him up or drop him too many times to let it go past 6 or 7 rounds.

                    ^^^ This. I'm a huge JMM fan but I as well think that he shouldn't fight above 140. For whatever reason it seems that as Pac has become heavier it's helped rather than hindered him. But I'm not sure the same is true for Marquez.

                    On the other hand, JMM has one of the greatest hearts ever in boxing. Ever.

                    Hard to deny that such a man, who also happens to be an elite practitioner of his craft, has a chance.
