    Good point. Also, when he was KO'd he was off balance. At the moment that Pac was hit he only had his left leg planted and he was in the process of taking a step back with his right leg.

      There's also approx 20 lbs. more force on the shots. Pac also rolled better with the shot shown from 26. The Welter shot in the GIF also lands, clearly, more on the sweet spot of the glove whereas the other isn't as flush. Marquez also almost dropped him with a right in the second. If it was easy to drop Pac, more guys would have done it since he moved up from Fly. Few have.

            Bob Arum's latest lie is that Pac/Marquez sold 1.15 million PPVs. Dan Rafael reported it and stated that is must be true because HBO did not dispute it. I doubt that this fight sold more than 700,000 PPVs. Not commenting on it is not the same thing as not dis*****g it. HBO has not released the numbers for any of Pac's fights since the Margarito fight so they haven't disputed any of the numbers that Arum has fed clowns like Rafael, and people like Dan Rafael simply take Bob Arum's (an admitted liar) word for it. No real journalist would do this. I know this because I used to be a journalist and my editor would never allow me to run something like this without confirming it with a legitimate source Rafael and all of the boxing writers who take Arum's word for it on the PPV numbers have no business calling themselves journalists. They are all jokes!!!!

              Whatever the numbers were they got to see a great fight.

              One thing is for sure, if they fight again, the numbers will be huge!

                  Do a 5th fight !

                  HBO viewers had it 72% - YES

                  28% No

                  JMM is a gentleman and I believe will gladly give Pac that 5th fight as Pac has given him at least 3 times to beat him.

                  Pac deserves the 5th to prove what happen on that fateful nite will not happen again.

                      Yup, laughed when I saw Big James bring that up ....

                      That was a great fight. Had everything. Wished it went longer so we would have seen more of that. You can never get too much of a good thing and last week it was a great thing!
