Comments Thread For: Marquez: Pacquiao Made Mistake By Not Stopping Horn in 10th

[nycsmooth]

Marquez also believes he was robbed in the first 3 Pacquiao fights.

I agree he believes that and I have seen the replays of all of the fights several times , he won 2... judges get things in their mind, fixated by their personalities... watch the replay George Foreman and Axel Schultz it was on Free TV), he beat the crap out of him Foreman who wore sunglasses before the decision his eyes were so badly swollen...

That's boxing for ya!

Pacquiao was gassed after the 9th round, chasing after Horn and throwing haymakers, most of which missed. Horn was younger and in better shape, though in no way did Pacquiao lose that fight. Makes sense for all involved for another fight in Oz, sell another 60,000 tickets, Arum and all the promoters get bank, Horn gets a record pay day, and Pacquiao makes another cool $10,000,000. It's a win win for all involved! LOL

In other words Pacquiao must win his fights via Ko because he can't win a decision.

It's called getting old JMM. Manny isn't 26 or 27 years old anymore. He's 38 and a half years old. The man is nearing 40 years of age and have been fighting professionally for the past 22 and a half years.

Therefore, he has accumulated a lot of mileage, wear and tear on his body since that time; To the point where he no longer has the same amount of energy or stamina as he used to have in the early part of his career.

Pac was dead tired, but I agree that was the difference in the fight. If he would have pounced on him that round he would have ultimately gotten the decision.
