Same Rhun
PAC 143
Marquez 142
I watched Pacquiao vs. Marquez II again and it really makes me wonder how part three won't be a good fight.
The Marquez we saw against Mayweather might be influencing some fans predictions about how he'll do against Pacquiao. Mayweather was much bigger then JMM and twice as skilled, and while Manny at this point in his career has a much better skill set, he and JMM are about the same size.
Although Pac and JMM are about the same size physically, which might lead you to believe that we might see something akin to Pacquiao vs. Marquez II, it ain't likely to happen. Pac will have a big advantage in speed, power and improved boxing ability, that I can't see Marquez being able to overcome.
I don't believe the 3rd fight between these two warriors will be anything like the first 2, since Pac vs JMM II, in 2008, Pacquiao has blitzed through, Diaz, De La Hoya, Hatton, Cotto, Clottey, Margarito, and Mosley, hardly losing a round. So why is JMM going to be any different then the other 7? I hate to say a great fighter like JMM has no chance against Pacquiao, but he really doesn't.

Ya agreed, Pac is a much different fighter this time around. He's blazed through the boxing world and divisions these last few years, going to battle in such a dominating way he reminds me of something, almost primal...like say, Genghis Khan. I mean, he even looks like some kinda Mongol War Lord. lol
Cept after defeating you, instead of raping and pillaging, he offers to buy your family new shoes and put a roof over their house...then sings later that night with a shit eating grin on Jimmy Kimmel.
Anyone got a vid of the weigh in? They are usually all over youtube the morning after but I cant find any
Did you'all know the undercard is going to be live streamed by toprank tv for free?
What time does the fight start UK time? Need to make sure I am back in time from my night out
Because Marquez has fought Pacquiao close twice before. None of those fighters had experience fighting Manny. I liked that Marquez weighed in at 142 and he appeared more ripped than he usually does. There isn't going to be a huge size disadvantage here. That is hogwash. They weighed in at 142 and 143 respectively. There always was a speed disparity favoring Pacquiao and that is nothing new. Timing beats speed and Marquez has Pacquiao timed. My opinion is the minority. Most are picking a Pacquiao landslide and Pacquiao finishes him early. Pacquiao started off fast in both their other fights so that may happen again here. If Marquez can survive the early rounds, I like Manny in another great fight, in which he wins a little bit more clearly. Say 116-112. I may change my opinion as the day goes on though.
I think Pacquiao COULD blast JMM out like he did Hatton. Sure its very doubtful JMM is sparked out cold, but Pac has hurt him early before....this time I doubt he let's him off the hook
