Truly, for pac's stature right now, it is indeed just an average fight for him. interestingly, he still manages to knock this kiddo around in just a matter of 8 rounds. thereby, a convicing win again for him.

I know the agony man, during nazeem hameds winning days, i had to go out when a pack of people in the bar where i usually stayed goes crazy when hamed's fight comes. Until he ran blindly into a master boxer and apparently one of the truly ATG, Marco antonio barrera. since then i found out watching boxing is such fun.
anyway, in the case of pacman. this guy is very very hard to beat. even if you can withstand his hardest blows a boxer will soon realize that he has piled up such a huge volume of punches and you worry that the least you could get is maybe a draw only. His aggression is such that, any judge will appreciate it. another problem with manny is, at first many think he is just a dumb slugger who is strong and fast and all but actually he is an intelligent fighter who setup his power punches well and uses his physical gift very well. Notice that his style varies every opponent he faces, he is always an enigmatic by nature which i guess helped him in some ways. One thing is for sure though, this guy always comes hard and fast as if he is willing to drain all his energy at any round if his opponent pisses him off. That ferocious burning attitude is what keeps the fans generally "entertained" They know at anytime, if manny gets tagged hard, that animal inside of him will come out and even if he wouldn't knockdown his opponent the volume of power punches thrown alone is truly massive and spectacular.
Anyway, a fight against marquez should happen immediately because i really feel this is the only guy that can pressure back pacman. although his winning percentage would be lower this time around because pac as we all know, knows a little boxing right now. It should be quite entertaining because apparently, unlike the great morales in their trilogy this time around he will not be expecting the phrase " no mas" anytime during the fight. psychologically, pac knows the guy he will be fighting is tougher and as the round would go by hopefully marquez will be more focused and even tougher like their first fight and not succumb to pacmans burning ferocity. it's hard, really very hard but i think of all the challenger right now, marquez is the tested and proven one that can possibly do this.
