Did Pacquiao make Juan Manuel Marquez Famous?

[loui_ludwig]

Before Barrera lost to Pacquiao i had no idea who was Pacquiao and Marquez if anything helped build Pacuqioa since Marquez was more known then Pacquiao was at the time. Everybody in boxing knew Marquez, people still remember him as being one of the fighters that Hamed ducked.

Only nutthuggers belive pacuqioa made marquez famous -thats a pacquiao fan nuthugging to the extreme once again.

Everybody, r u sure? In my previous job, there were a lot of boxing fans. I asked them about JMM, most of them didn't who he is.

If you didn't know of Marquez then you didn't follow the lower boxing weight classes. Marquez stepped in the scene right away he was a top prospect to look at, trained by Berstein usally automaticly get you attention because he develops talent. So yes, if you were a boxing fan and followed the little guys you knew who Marquez was, especially if you were from the West Coast.

Pac became popular because of his will to give it all, whether win, lose, or draw.

Remember, Pac was an underdog and expected to lose against MAB. But Pac dominated MAB.

We already posted about this in another thread. Didn't u say JMM fought in the Forum? U cant' really say that JMM is known by EVERYBODY in boxing. If promoters and managers, yes he is probably known, But with boxing fans, not everybody.

Marquez was known for his skills, Tyson was known for his power, etc. etc.....

Just cause YOU didnt know about him doesnt mean nobody knew about him, he was already known and was on HBO way before the pac fight...
