Marquez Running Out of Stamina in 3rd pacquiao Fight

[GrandpaBernard]

Did Marquez get tired?

IIRC, Marquez mostly chilled in the final two rounds of the fight.

Fights are meant to be scored round by round, but taking the last two rounds off against a superstar and 2nd biggest draw in boxing at the time wasn't a wise decision. Every fight is a story and the most recent rounds leave the last impression. These two rounds were a major opportunity for Marquez to punctuate the story he wrote that night.

Trainers across the world teach their fighters it's not how you start the round but how you finish the round & it's not how you start the fight but how you finish the fight.

Cruising in rounds 11 & 12 clearly wasn't a smart choice but Marquez did it anyways. Was his gas tank running low?

I don’t know but he won the battle I know that for sure. Dropped him twice in the last fight and nearly ended his career. Literally.

i believe it was nacho who told marquez to cruise those later rounds, 11-12.

i wouldnt go that far. the pacman is still alive and active. i believe he just recently defeated one of the top fighter in the ww division. that marquez ko was more of a blessing in disguise.

I still dont know how thurman lost that fight he outlanded pac in punches landed and in the power punches landed only jabs where in pacs favor..but I guess you have to give it to pacquiao since he generates more money...and that counter to put pac to sleep was a well timed laser
A thing of beauty....

LOL, JMM is relevant again... GrandPac's conquerors suddenly get spotlight when they comment in line with the Thurman fight... I hope the legendary Torrecampo and Singsurat give comments...

they thought they had the fight in the bag

it's about who landed the more meaningful punches. that was manny! i mean if we fight and i flick a jab out at you for all 12 rounds while you busted my nose open, eyes, etc. who do you think won the fight?
