so if nacho was surprised, that means they never really used the punch in camp that much, was it a lucky punch, a hail mary? not saying that it is but the trainer seems to point to that direction

Thats not what it means. It means Manny has a good chin, why wouldn't you be surprised?

I'm just as happy for Nacho as I am for JMM. Well deserved KO victory for two legends in the sport. Goes to show you what perseverance and determination can do for you.

Marquez cemented his greatness last night. Better late than never I guess. I thought this fight was going to be better than the 3rd encounter, but I'm still ****ing amazed at what I saw last night.

No, because they clearly worked on it..there's that vid out where they show Marquez knocking down his partner with a short right that he stepped into..which prompted them to stop allowing the recording of his spars. This is just him showing how highly he thought of Pac. Obviously, with the name dinamita you've got some pop, but Nacho knows combinations is Marquez's bread and butter. It was just the culmination of everything. Pac took off like a sprinter into that right hand.

I'm sure they worked on a straight right hand once or twice in training camp. SMH.

He means he wasn't expecting a one punch destruction of PAC- MAN , he knew the ko was possible but that was something else .. I hope Marquez retire , nothin else to prove . No better way to end a superb career .
