Before the 3rd Pacquiao-Marquez fight, Manny is already the underdog if he fights Floyd. Now he is a very heavy underdog, just like when he fought Oscar. Hopefully, that will again bring out the best in him.

But I think that Manny is indeed slipping. If he is to have one last fight before he retires, it should be with Mayweather. I want him to aim for the ultimate legacy. If he is to lose, at least he loss to the best. It will be an anti-climactic end to his illustrious career if he loses to some other boxer. Even a dominant win against Marquez would not be as satisfying for JMM will always be considered as old.
