i think marquez/pac will be a better fight than mayweather/pac. plus mayweather is kind of a loudmouth, so i hope he loses to marquez. i don't think mayweather can beat pac.

I think I remember hearing something like that. I've recently rediscovered boxing and am enjoying watching the pros fight. Much better punching technique, footwork and defensive skills than what I see going on in MMA (but I of course still enjoy MMA). Most likely Mayweather will win, and I believe Pacman will win his next fight as well. The two will definitely have to fight after all this and it will be the match boxing fans have been waiting for.

Now the Mayweather - Pacquiano is almost a done deal.

That's the least of the problem. Both have won at 4 or 5 different weight classes, from flyweight to welterweight (or light welterweight). Right now, moreover, they're rated #1 and #2 as the best pound for pound fighters in the business. It is true that Manny has gone up from his natural weight class, and Mayweather seemed to have trouble coming down in weight for his last fight. But, it won't be very hard to find a mutually agreeable weight for them to fight at, imo.

Me too. It's one of those fights that promises to live up to the hype. Mayweather's attitude is backed up with real skill. Pacman is also a great fighter with a lot of appeal. If he gets through Cotto, we'll have something special in the works.

Marquez's urine-tech didn't get him there.

A beautiful fight--it was a pleasure to see Mayweather's speed, defensive capabilities and counter punching skills. That looked like one of those exhibitions champions used to do leading up to their actual bout. Marquez was completely outclassed.
