    So was Marquez 3 the perfect warmup for Pacman to prepare for Floyd?

    If not who else could Pacman have fought.
    Did you say warm up?

      On the one hand, Marquez is a good counter-punching tactician like Floyd. On the other hand, Floyd proved he is TWICE as good as it as Marquez. So I don't know who else Pac could have fought, but, if he struggled with Marquez, kiss your ass goodbye on May 5.

          One positive that may have come out of the fight is the possibility that Floyd will now underestimate Pacquiao. We've all seen what can happen when you underestimate an opponent (Tyson vs Douglas, etc.)

          The Pacquiao-Marquez fight hasn't changed my perception of Pacquiao. Marquez had caused problems for Pacquiao in the other 2 fights. It wasn't suprising that the 3rd fight was another close one.

            While both Floyd and JMM are counterpunching tacticians, they are also completely different fighters. When JMM counters, he does so in combinations. He's a much more offensive fighter than Floyd. Floyd on the other hand relies solely on right hand leads and one and done counterpunches. Floyd will definitely need to up his offense in a fight with Pac just so he doesnt lose rounds due to lack of workrate against a volume puncher like Pac.

              getting tagged means landing one punch a round against pac and then backing up for 2:59

                      How may times did his back touch the ropes and how long did he stay there? It's not running when he is controlling the center of the ring the whole fight. He was RIGHT in front of Pacquiao all night. He just happened to be inches away from Pacquiao's punching range while in position to land his own. That's not running dipshit. *******s cant possibly comprehend how badly he was outboxed if they think defensive maneuvers and brilliant footwork equates to running.

                      I feel bad for you ****** motherfuckers. You have no idea how dumb your devotion to Arum and Pac makes you look.
