Comments Thread For: Pacquiao vs. Marquez 5: Mexico in The Lead To Host

do they even test for anything in Texas?!

if they stop you before you leave the arena I guess so.

Marquez is very nationalistic. If the fight does end up in Mexico I bet he'd rather die than be KO'd like PAC in front of his people. You can expect a close, safe fight from him. Maybe try to get a decision, if he loses another close one so what. Everyone that knows anything about boxing acknowledges he won the 2nd and 3rd fight and got a defining KO in the 4th. He gets his 15 million and he rides off into the sunset as an ATG.

Manny is in a tough spot he won't win a decision in Mexico so he will have to ko marquez and to ko marquez he will have to let his hands go and that plays right into marquez it will be tough for manny I think he has to overcome a lot after not even knowing how good is he now

Ive seen fighters come back pretty strong chinned but only from a referee stoppage or a good beating, but ive yet to see a guy come back strong chinned after a one to the mouth snoozer like that. I got JMM by KO again.

Why does everything always have to be about money? If Pacquiao wants a tune up because he truly believes he can beat Marquez than why does it matter how much he makes. Can't he just fight to get the work in and his confidence up again? It's not like they'll make peanuts! If he was serious about wanting to improve with a tune up the money wouldn't matter as much. This isn't about Pacquiao beating Marquez it's about cashing Pacquiao in as much as possible!

"When is the rematch going to happen?"
Must be a bunch of sore loser Plankiao fans.
I can't believe this is actually going to happen,I kind of wish Marquez would've lost now. SMH.

[PAC-BOY]

Yeah he got money but everyone now knows there was never going to be a stadium. Floyd would have made pacroid look like a fool in the ring. But that sta d ium thing was all made up to avoid pacroid taking a good ole fashion a&& whooping.

Like everyone knew Floyd would never fight Manny no matter what or how much money! Bob couldnt intice Floyd no matter how many more Millions hed make!

[Phantomas]

Hehe pactarts thirst for revenge, as if poor pac has any chance at this point now that Marquez will be writting the conditions and has finally cracked that chin.

1st fight.- Pac was competitive
2nd.- Pac got outboxed
3rd.- Pac got embarrassed.
4th.- Pac got knocked out flat uncounscious
5th.- Pac gets knocked out on his feet and gets rescued by a merciful referee.

It will be the modern version of Vercingetorix being executed in the enemy home land.

perfect venue, imo.

And they still stand behind him because they're true fans unlike the people here in the US who switch up as soon as their favorite fighter take a lost. U can't please them all and the real fans know this!

Way to skip the point. Or rather you refused to address it. I'm not talking about performance in the ring. I'm talking about how when the Philippine Congress is in session, where bills and laws that affect the economy, infrastructure, and the very people of the Philippines, where is Manny? He's in the US training for a fight and getting updates by phone. Here's a better question: If there is a new law in affect that would affect how much you earn or how much you have to pay in taxes, where do you want your congressman or congresswoman? In congress conferring with other congressmen and hearing everything firsthand or thousands of miles away and getting all your information second hand?

It actually is an insult to the Filipino people, they're entrusting the power of approving or disapproving laws that directly affect them to a man who treats being a congressman as a side job.

Additionally, see how wherever Pacquaio fights the local economy increases 1000%? Imagine how helpful that would be to the Philippines. Now realize it isn't going to happen because Manny and Bob are too greedy. Its like watching the hometown hero go off and help a bunch of fat cats make more money while the hometown folk are left in the dust.

Manny are you a singer? A boxer? A politician? Pick one please.
