    you guys need to watch the fight again by the look of things


    if you think bradley's punches would have that little of an effect on mayweather you guys are seriously overstating floyd's durability


    size, boys
    size


    marquez was a career FW
    and he's a small LW even today.
    I think it's been established that Pac is a legit welterweight and Marquez buzzed him on several occasions.

      A better question is..

      What Would happen if Marquez fought the Casamayor that fought Bradley?

        pacquiao could probably fight at LW if the money was right
        most of the experts i hear speculating about his natural fighting weight think he's somewhere between a LW and jr WW
        about 138 lbs

        he's eating like a horse to get to WW
        he's not a natural WW by a long shot


        he can hang with a WW, but he's not a natural WW


        and i dont think pacquiao was ever close to being ready to go in the most recent marquez fight

          No, Pacquiao wasn't seriously hurt and ready to go, but he was stunned a few times and actually respected Marquez's power. Besides Marquez, nobody was able to stun Pacquiao in a long time.

            we can agree to disagree but i think he was most hurt in the margarito fight and i dont think marquez shots did much other than "stun" him as you say

            and they did earn his respect, but that was mostly because they're set up by a great counterpuncher


            dont get me wrong. marquez is a monster and a great offensive fighter, and he's one of favorites of all time.
            i just dont think his punches are as hard as a natural jr WW come WW in tim bradley.

            especially at 147

              Well yeah he was hurt to the body against Margarito, but the Margarito fight was above the 147 division. I still don't think Bradley is more of a puncher than Marquez at 147, maybe they have around the same power. Bradley also relies on his timing to hurt his opponents and not only on brute force so we can say that both of them aren't exactly huge punchers at 147 but because of the way they fight their opponents respect their power.

                  marquez also weighed 142 and pacquiao only a pound heavier at 143

                  and i think marquez had 2 lbs on him on fight night

                  at 148 on fight night really isnt a WW
                  especially when you're eating like a truck to get there.
