Pacquiao is now a more complete fighter and the fact that he was effective against Marquez with the basic jab jab left hand I wouldn't want to imagine what he could do to Marquez now that he has a left hook feints, body combinations and a set up and a counter jab and an improved defense.

Pacquiao is twice the fighter he was then and Marquez is the same fighter with more publicity

Pacquaio would take this fight imo.
CC--agree completely. And as much as some people have jumped on Manny Steward's commentating from Saturday, he's right that JMM has lost a little speed in the years since the Pac fight. And that's going to be a huge problem against someone as fast and hard-hitting as Pac. I'd give JMM the technical edge, but I just think Pac overwhelms him on every other measure, and I see this one ending before 12--but after 3
