    I think Pac's style will be a mystery to Rocky. Pac will smother him with punches and a thing I noticed about Rocky is that once caught even a bit off guard, he can't throw a punch. He has to get back to his stance to throw a single punch.

    The only one I can see beating Pac right now is JMM. Unfortunately, Barrera comes first.
    Pacquiao will never fight Marquez again, not while Marquez is with Delahoya.

      I call him lazy for the habit of not throwing enough punches and not even chasing an opponent decently across the ring. If he took it to barrera, he should have won the fight.

      As for Velasquez, I think he lost. He was hyped too much at the start of his career.

        I'm not losing hope though. I wanna see them get at it again. Marquez' last fight with Tersdak showed a different JMM: an aggressive one. I wanna see that against Pac. By that time, hopefully in 2007, both fighters have added to their game. Just hope JMM doesn't get old soon enough for the fight to materialize.

          Too risky, imo.

                With the speed JMM showed against Tersdak, it'd be a great match. Both fighters don't have the habit of clinching, just letting their hands go.

                I think JMM comes out on top of a hard fought UD.

                  I'm ganna go with Guzman based on JMM last performance. jmm seems to have slowed down, taking shots from Jandaeng who compared to Guzman is like a snail. when Guzamn fought tersdak in ny, he burried him, the fight wasnt even a compitition.

                      It was a headbutt that shut his eye.
