Comments Thread For: Donaire Believes Pacquiao Can Still Overwhelm Marquez

still overwhelm??when did he EVER overwhelm Jmm?

Oh my. Your memory is short or you didn't watch it.

[Jam Jars]

Close fight again but with JMM getting the decision. Then we can all wave goodbye to Pacquiao.

[Bushbaby]

What Pacman needs to do, is retire.

[ddangerous]

Some of us still like Manny Pacquiao. I am one of them. I don't want to see him retire until a fight with Floyd is made.

marquez is an old man. no way he can throw a hundred punches in a round while countering the entire fight cause that's the only way marquez can win. the statistics, from a draw to a split and then a majority, shows marquez isn't improving at all and chances point towards marquez losing by UD or worse, getting ko'ed after gassing out in the late rounds.

We all thought this going into JMM-Pacquaio 3, that Marquez was too old, too slow, and unable to throw in between countering, and that he would 'gas' out. Additionally your flowchart of draw-split-majority decision doesn't reflect the controversy and situations surrounding the 2nd and 3rd fight in that many people thought Marquez won.

Additionally I doubt Marquez is getting KO'd, because to take a page from your book, here's my own flowchart:

Knocked down 3 times - Knocked down once - knocked down 0 times. Maybe Marquez isn't the one slowing down, maybe is Manny...

[ironmike2012]

Hard to see either fighter getting KO'd, but they both want this win and they both might be more aggressive. I think Manny will put up a better fight than last year's fight.

No he wont. "Not even god is going to help Marquez" pacquiao goes on to win a controversial decision.

The first round of their first fight, LONG time ago

You can usually tell a fighter's ring IQ by how they analyze other fighters. Is that the only thing that Nonito finds valuable in Pacquiao, his physical attributes? Nonito has been relying a lot on his speed/power, very little tact in the way he goes up about his business. All that "raw talent" can be negated by a technician, and that's exactly what Marquez is. JMM = matador and Pac = bull.
