    Agree, will is def not enough. But I am not judging Pac based on his last performance. If you look at Marquez3 fight once again and forget JMM even being in the ring, just observe Pac the whole time.......I mean there are a few rounds that he acctually does NOTHING!! for a whole minute or so. Now I know he has had problems with JMM before, that is clear. But we all know he is more a fighter that a boxer. He goes in to war in the ring. Its his mentality. So watching him doing nothing for half of the round....I was like WTF is going on? My oppinion is, he was def underperforming.

    Not to mention this whole "i have problems with counterpuncher" BS.....I mean even if he has, why the **** would Roach explain his fighters weakness just before his fight with best counterpuncher in WW right now? Theres got to be some intention behind it.
    Why does he have to do anything? He's already the champion. If you're the challenger like Marquez was in the fight, you don't even win in a draw. The challenger is the one expected to do something.

    See this has always been the standard for Pac for a long time now. He beats all these fighters and he is still expected to always be the one chasing his opponents as if he is the challenger. He has to always prove himself. Not Marquez, or any of his opponents.

      I wasnt talking about who should or was doing more, whether it was robbery or draw etc........all I am saying is that I have noticed that Pacquiao has underperformed, its not typical for him doing nothing as long as he is not attacked, not in his nature.
