People will say that Marquez had Pacquiao's number but Pac accomplished more. The final word is JMM standing triumphant unless that changes that's what it is.
Pacquiao has accomplished more, fought better fighters and beaten them easier. Marquez struggled for a while with the likes of Juan Diaz and Michael Katsidis.
Yes, Marquez is Pacquiaos kryptonite. but people act as if Marquez was robbed in all 3 fights, but the truth is they were close competetive fights and if Marquez got all the decisions people would say Pacquiao was robbed.
So even with the KO loss, I think Pacquiao is the better fighter (against same opposition) and has accomplished way more.
But who are these better fighters you speak of? Diaz, Margarito, Mosley, De La Hoya?
I'll give him Barrera, Clottey, Hatton, Cotto. But Pacquiao's resume is pretty suspect after that. Morales? He lost to him, then beat him AFTER Raheem beat him. Margarito? Beat him after he was coming off 1.5 years off+a TKO loss to Mosley, who Pacquiao clearly ducked in 2009-2010. Mosley? See previous sentence. Diaz? Weakest champion at 135. De La Hoya? Weight drained, but that was not Pacquiao's fault.

Who's Marquez' 2nd best scalp, and where would he be on Pac's resume?
