Comments Thread For: Marquez's Trainer Fires Back at Erik Morales Over Pacquiao Jabs

[j.razor]

I kinda of forgetful, but didn't Morales whip Pacquiao in his prime? Or I'm I wrong?

Wrong. Manny's "prime" was when he Manny didn't want to take the test....

Without the 3 knockdowns in the first round, Marquez pretty much dominated Pacquiao in the first fight.

Most people had Marquez 115-113 in the second fight. Third fight was considered a robbery. Fourth fight put the matter to rest.

Marquez got dropped in the 2nd fight too. So it couldnt be 115-113.
That would make it 114-113.

I had it 114-113 pacquiao.
6 rounds a piece. Marquez losing a point for getting dropped.

I had marquez winning 3 out of 4 fights tho

That forearm looks su****ious.

Ive seen this on people driving in fence posts, you boys are so hyper critical on sht you know nothing about.

Morales would've beaten Marquez at 130 and under. Anything above that, Marquez likely would've won.

Marquez beat Manny in all 4 fights, F what you HEARD....

ridicously absurd!! Then Castillo and Maidana beat Floyd in their respective 1st fights!! F wat u HEARD!!!

Morales is not completely wrong, but neither is Nacho. Any boxing fans ignoring the politics in boxing has to be a complete jackass. Marquez had to fight for every single opportunity he got against top competition, he was not an extremely marketable fighter for a large part of his career. That is not a reflection whatsoever on his skill-set. Morales beat a rising Pacquiao, while Marquez and Pacquiao had one of, if not, THE greatest saga in modern boxing history. They fought 4 times because there was NEVER a clear winner on either side; both Pac and Marquez knew they would never feel satisfaction until one was deemed the true winner. Decisions aside, Manny and Roach knew they never truly won, otherwise they would have never fought them even a 2nd time.

fought 4 times bc of $ and fan interest in straight up toe to toe wars in the ring....back and forth trading of power shots, blood and guts action HBO was willing to pay for 4 times!!

Marquez always played second fiddle to Morales and Barrera. It’s too bad Marquez never fought Morales. Deep down I don’t think Marquez would have beaten either one of them in their prime. Marquez lost to lesser talented boxers but his fights with Pacquiao were legendary.

If you look at it though, during that stretch Marquez was the only fighter to visibly hurt Pacquiao even through his welterweight run noone hurt him like Marquez did...

That forearm looks su****ious.

Pacquiaos calf muscles have always gotten me thinking about roids!!!
