More intelligent fighter at this point with more in the tank and oh yeah, he's the only guy since Morales to put Pacquiao in any sort of deep water. I think that's a fight that'll force Pacquiao to come back down to Earth more. Outside of Mayweather, that's the best fight available for Pacquiao.
There is definitely a better choice of opponent for Pacquiao than Mosley but Marquez ain't it.
With Marquez' weight at 144, Mayweather was practically sparring with him. I think were footwork is concerned, Marquez can't afford to fight guys who can jump about the way Pacquiao does. Plus unless the fight is at 135 (were imo Pacquiao would be weaker than he is now, despite being in a class of smaller guys), Marquez is in no position to carry the weight the same way Pacquiao has. Wrong age, wrong body type, just wrong.

He would just be conceding more and more mobility, strength and power the HIGHER in weight he goes.

IF by some slight chance the fight was at 135 then I might give Marquez a chance of making the full 12 but anywhere north of 135 and he gets walked over. I mean completely annihilated

I really hope this fight doesn't get made.
