What happens if JMM soundly beats Pacman?

[JonesJrMayweather]

How would that shake up the boxing world? Would the PBF fight still be as big, given that the general public watched floyd toy with JMM for 12 rounds?

It won't happen. As much as I respect him, Marquez is seriously on the slide and he's going to get knocked out.

But, if it did happen, I don't know that it would change all that much. It would certainly increase Marquez status, but I think a lot of people would just sort of shrug and say that he always had a style to trouble Pac and that he was just too small for Floyd.

[El Kabong]

Well IF it happened Floyd would just brag about it.

BUT it won't happen, Pac will destroy JMM, he's hurt him before he'll certainly bring his A game for this fight.

I dnt see very good thingz happening to Marquez in thiz fight. If Katsidiz hurt him wat do u think a 147 pound Manny will do to him? Itz juzz common sense an Marquez hasnt got any better since der last fight..

[THE THIRD MAN]

Marquez was soundly beaten by Floyd and was lucky to get past Kats, this will be the easiest of all the Pacman fights.

I would most likely run into the streets naked with a knife and fork in my hands bellowing "Give the head of Manny Pacquiao to me on a plate. This man needs to eat!"

I think it would be a pretty big deal if Marquez pulled off the upset. At his age and at the weight it is all against him.

Style make fights though, if Marquez can beat Pac it doesn't automatically mean that Mayweather can, but you would think it would indicate so.

Also, if Marquez wins I'd wager that I'll have to hand out about 13 bans in the aftermath.

And delete around 100 topics at best.

JMM is an amazing fighter but just cannot see it at the higher weight but if JMM did it the he would be the greatest Mexican fighter ever.

[Snakey]

Pac has been hurt by marquez before, his weight wont make much difference.

Why was he lucky to get by Kats? He clearly was winning almost every round of that fight besides the knockdown.

How can you say weight won't make a difference? First of all, many of the times Pacquiao was "hurt" by punches earlier in his career it was from him having poor balance. Like that left hook in the second JMM fight early on. It looks like it nearly floored him, but it was just him not having his feet beneath him. JMM caught him numerous times in such situations. I'm sure Pacquiao felt JMM power because he became more gunshy, but he wasn't really ever wobbled by JMM. Also with the size increase which Pacquiao has done so much more effectively, is that he can take big shots from larger guys now. He was taking flush punches from Margarito, Clottey, COtto, and even Mosley a few times. Two of them have respectable welterweight power, and the other two have exceptional power. Mosley as welterweight hits harder than JMM did in any of his divisions. I'm not saying it's impossible for Marquez to hurt or stop Pacquiao, but it will be much harder than before.

Define "hurt". Like knocking down Pac 4 times or something?
