STYLES make fights.Why is it so hard for people here to understand this?

pacquiao goes back to one dimensional fighting style everytime he fights marquez, everything gets wrong when it comes to marquez, what he did yesterday is just the same thing he did in their last fight and i didnt see any difference and he was just waiting to time a lucky left but then he was a little bit hesitant to get hit by counters than their first two fights.
he cant rotate against marquez, he cant jump at different angles and throw weird uppercuts like he did against bigger guys like cotto and margarito.
i also believe that pac's mind has been already traumatize by marquez and at the first three rounds he had a major mental and confidence breakdown due to ofcourse to his boosting confidence and afterall those said improvements he was back to where he had started when it comes to marquez. and the fans kept on cheering for marquez's punches which usually happens to him most of his fights.
i believe cotto and margarito or even mosley would KO marquez. .
im a filipino but a believe marquez edge that fight..

I'm so happy the best fights in boxing happen in courtrooms. It's great for the sport.

It's because most posters only go on who they want to win or who they like, not the reality of what is going on. Anyone who has seen the first 2 fights knew already that this one was gonna be closer than most "experts" were saying it would go. "Pac will KO JMM in brutal fashion, the fight won't go 5 rds".....smh...yeah, JMM is known for getting ktfo isn't he?

JMM and Floyd fight nothing alike so people drawing conclusions based off of this performance either don't like Pac, heavily like Floyd, or are huge JMM fans that are disgruntled. I knew that there was gonna be controversy if the fight went to the cards because of how lucrative Pac has become.....he will virtually never lose another decision again.

People always said Manny hasnt been tested since Marquez.he's been carefully matched against broken fighters at uncomfortable weights...Marquez is a warrior and is a great counter puncher and thats something manny can't handle and great counter puncher with timing..Manny even at this stage of his career proved he can't adapt in a fight

Why do people keep parroting this nonsense? It's not that Mayweather and Marquez fight alike, it's that Mayweather is capable of exploiting the same holes in Pacquiao's fight game that Marquez exposes. Not only is he as capable as Marquez, he's even more capable. What's so hard to understand about that?

Floyd Sr's style is all wrong for Manny. But if he catches him now at 62, he could beat him.


Manny thought, okay Marquez's style was all wrong for me ay 126-130 when he was younger, now that he's 38 and at a weight class he looked horrible in, I can roll right through him cause i'm so much better now.


This was a cherrypick gone wrong for Team Pacquiao/Bob Arum. This was an easy fight on paper.

Thats not too hard to understand but this is where I see it differently, even though Floyd can counter punch and has a good defense, he is still taller, which means he has to reach to find him, you dont have the same power in your shots when your reaching down and you often miss more.

Which is exactly why Manny looked so good against bigger guys, its easier to make them miss and they dont exactly see you until your comming back up with a shot.

Marquez is always going to give Manny a hard fight because he is nearly the same height so he can shoot his shots straight, with out having to reach down and give up height and create bigger holes.

So even though Mayweather can do the same if not more than Marquez his height will be a factor here, also Marquez was able to take some of mannys shots to get his done, whos to say Floyd can do the same?

where was this right hand of manny??i saw him land 1 weak right hook..hell he was circling to his right hand all night..and all manny could do is resort to the double right hand jab left hook combo,where where all those 8 punch combos??no body shots,nothing,it was embarrasing manny looked like he had learned nothing.

I dont know why your talking ****, you didnt give Marquez a chance here, most if you didnt now you want to come back and pretend like you know something?
