Because Manny has a Welterweight title and his last fight was even at a higher weight plus he's not the one asking for the fight. he's the one approving

Mate as much as i respect you, You have to excuse me but you are totally wrong on this one.

he busting the bigger guys because they can absorb heavier blows. He's absolutely a Julian Jackson type of a puncher at the lower weights.

See : Chocviat, Sasakul , Lucero, Barotillo( Right hook) all kayoed with one shot

Manny has all the advantages and having it at WW is simply not a fair fight. We criticised Mayweather for it and yet we are calling for Manny to be given a free pass for it? At the very least it should go to 140, so that Marquez is at least fighting somewhere near his own weight. Otherwise, it is a fight that I have a very hard time justifiying.
i think partially the opposite, I think Pac wins again but will struggle again. There's no way he blows him out. Im not joking when i say Manny is tailor made for Marquez.

JMM is the absolute counterpucher. he operates best when he's being rushed and being chased. that means more opportunities for him.

I also think he's an average fighter when facing a boxer who waits and doesnt initiate.

see Salido, John, Norwood, Floyd
