Is everyone who fights Pacquiao trying to be like Marquez?

    Pac/Jmm had 4 fights. Marquez probably figured Pac out after the first fight, but took 3 more to implement his plan. If that lights out punch did not land, Marquez would've probably been sparked by Pac in that 4th fight.

    Such is boxing. Props to Marquez for uncorking the unforgettable shot!

        And Pacquiao wasn't roided himself? Also, first two were razor close but the third was clearly a Marquez win was disgustingly robbed. Learn some boxing.

            Corrected that. And your observation is sound.

              Agreed. People forget how good Manny's chin is, it's just on that particular night he didn't see it coming. He's fought a bit more cautiously since then.
