I disagree.

Pac can make a load of money still fighting and he can prove he can bounce back.

Did old marquez retire after the last bout? No. He sucked it up and carried on like a warrior.

Pac showed he was still his usual dangerous self last night and he had me worried after he knocked down marquez...but marquez threw the picture perfect sugar ray robinson counter punch that was a beautiful thing to behold.

Pacs power is still there so is his speed.
He needs to beat bradley and another solid welterweight to get a shot at marquez again.

you are a sadist

Your just sad pavlik.
Grow up.

Theres no need to use those terms.
I saw positives in the fight for pac and rather than ridicule its always best to support.

As a mayweather fan of course part of me was glad that JMM won because i never thought pac was on floyds level anyway.

Marquez wasn't brutally stopped. I'm not sure he can come back from that.

Explain how his power is still there. He hasn't had a knockout in years. I agree his speed is still there.

He needs to beat bradley and another solid welterweight to get a shot at marquez again.

Why does he need to prove anything?

He lost his last two fights. He's secured his legacy already. He's made a ton of money in the game. However, most significantly, he suffered a monstrous knockout last night. That was a Sergio Martinez-Paul Williams type of knockout. I'm not sure he can come back from that, even if he wanted to. Time will tell though.

Don't forget, in the last 3 fights Manny Pacquiao was the man. After the weekend, JMM is now THE MAN...

So, I'm sure Marquez can think of about 20-odd million reasons for Pac vs JMM 5
It was a fitting finale, especially in the eyes of the fans but we're just watching at home so it's easier for us to say "let's close the book now". I wouldn't begrudge Marquez if he chose to make that 8 figure payday.

Pac Man should avenge his defeats against Bradley then JMM in 2013.

I agree, that's a good money for both too!

Manny was showing promise but its the same old thing..no defense and no footwork.

Marquez needs to move on and see what he can do in the welterweight divison..

Manny came back well but it seemed as though marquez was ready for a tear up.

Why a rematch all the other fights ended in controversial decisions. There was no controversy here , there would be no talk of this if Pac had KO'd JMM.

Nice slight of JMM accomplishment. If he is done it is because JMM has done him in. Pac was winning the fight convincingly until JMM caught him flush. Manny showed up in elite form for the fight! No more excuses from Pac followers please .....

Religion, politics, socks, cramps, mother nature, ugliness , etc ......

Dare I say there aren't many who wouldn't watch a 5th fight.

Not sure about that. They did a poll yesterday at Showtime before the Nonito vs Travieso fight and more than 73% were voting for a 5th fight.

Exactly.

I'm a diehard Marquez fan and you both know that's a crock of shit.

I had the first fight a draw and lucky for me rd 1 was called 10/7 and not 10/6.
I thought Manny won the rematch in a Quartey/Oscar type fight.
I thought Marquez won the third clearly.
I know he won the 4th lol.

Not sure I understood your reply?

Did you read there aren't many who would watch rather than wouldn't watch?

You’re right. My bad.
