Pacquiao is too focus on politics/popularity/wealth to be close to his killer instinct he had when he was still a up and comming.

I just find it hilarious that an entire fanbase that was against extra and random drug testing, is now all of a sudden so adamant on the matter.....agendas

It was a clear strategy decision on his part to retreat against the ropes and try and time that right hand again.
He obviously didn't plan on getting touched up as much as he did.
In the 3rd fight it was clear that his strategy was based on keeping it in the center of the ring and timing that uppercut right hand.
We saw him land that at will again tonight when he wanted too, so he could have easily made it a clone of the 3rd fight, albeit getting touched up a bit more, instead he chose to rely on the right hand counter.
It was bad luck that Manny stumbled on Marquez foot off the feint, but thats the same way Marquez got knocked down the round before.
To imply that Marquez was throwing that right hand out of desperation instead of out of a concrete strategy is counter to everything we know about the man and how he fights.
Look at the exchange right before the KO. JMM was flayling away when he got caught with a big shot, he was WIDE open for a counter and Manny missed, it's boxing.
JMM gets hit, he doesn't hold, he doesn't retreat, he fights. He caught Manny with a beautiful shot and one he works on but it wasn't his idea to retreat to the ropes or some masterful plan to get hit and hurt and lure Manny in...LOL
He was hurt, fought like a real Mexican does and fired back. Manny got over confident, leaped in and got hit flush on the point of the chin.
That is all, we can turn this into Area 51 but it was not.

Marquez was getting hit because he was waiting to land the perfect punch, i don't think he looked "bad", but seemed it from the change of gameplan, he still gets hit when he boxes but not as clean. Just looks like he stayed true to his word, he was looking for the knockout.
And theres no luck here, a counter puncher takes advantage of opportunities, the opportunity was there and he took it.
Cong**** to both Marquez and Pacquiao, they're warriors.

Yes JMM was landing body shots and those could have effected him in the later rounds but in round 5 and 6 Manny was coming on and hitting JMM at will.
#2 - Manny made the mistake, it's that simple. He got over confident, leapt in and got hit with a great shot.
