The knockout was stunning but Marquez was getting pummeled in those early rounds whereas Nate just dominated Juan Diaz from the get go.
And Juan Diaz wasn't even in the top 10 p4p so how can Marquez become number 1 now?
Margarito's win over Cotto was bigger, as was in turn, Mosely's win over Margarito, why isn't Mosely number 1? (And no I don't think Mosely is p4p number 1 just making a point, Mosely's KO over Margarito was a far bigger shock than Marquez beating Diaz)
Marquez was I believe at least, the betting favourite over Diaz and he won in fine style after being dominated.
But he didn't look unbeatable at least not early and I don't see how that destruction was better than the slaughter Pacquaio put on Oscar.
And if you are going to try and take away Manny's credit by saying Oscar was weight drained then what about B Hop? Both his biggest wins in recent times over Pavlik and Tarver coincided with his opponents putting on career worst performances yet nobody takes his credit away.
Manny is number 1 going into his fight with Hatton.
Your mom.
For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.
