    I don't see it. Any other fighter who was KO'ed in 5 would have very little appeal, but this is Pac.

    For instance, I'm a big Floyd fan, but if he gets put to sleep by the Ghost in five rounds, I don't want to see in the ring ever again.
    Yes, you are correct, the difference is people are fans of Pacman because of his style of fighting and never backing down from a brawl, its what people want to see a knockout or a scrap and they know pacman will come to fight.

    Floyd people only pay to witness history, someone knocking him out or beating him to shut him up, once he loses his drawing power plummets big time, even the flowm0s will disappear they will do Floyd similar to how they did Roy, they were never real fans they only liked Floyd cause he was close to perfection once he has a blemish he is nothing to them.

      Don't do it Marquez. You dictate the terms. There is nothing to prove.

          the only reason I see jmm taking this fight is money,he's going to be 40 plus the money would be better over there because of the taxes,that is the only reason

            I have very little interest in a 5th fight, but i'm sure it'll sell well

              pacman shouldn't fight JMM again. everybody saw that they have kinda equal chance there. manny should choose some young fighters, who want to make a war. that's why we love pac.

                This makes me wonder what the hell Arum will do if Pac gets sparked again

                  You are 100% right

                  I am one of the people to pay to hopefully see Floyd get taxed....

                      I'm sure right now out of all the options Marquez has for a 5th belt Alvarado seems the most logical in terms of ease of winning.
