    "Always" doesn't really hold a lot of weight anymore since he's near the end of his career. Stellar career. Too bad it had to end this way and we never got to see the Floyd fight.

    I had JMM winning 3 of their first four fights but I can see the argument for Pac as well. You also have to take into consideration that JMM is at the end of his career too. Both fighters are far past their primes. Pac had a stellar career though. I'd place him in the top 25 of all time probably. Most boxers end up going out like this unfortunately. My only concern for Manny is his financial status. Arum really screwed him over

    Yeah, I was surprised as well -- it was almost like a flash knock down, but Marquez drilled him so hard -- the slow motion showed Paq's eyes start to roll back.

    ^ I should add -- Marquez is so freaking lucky his glove touched the ground -- without that standing 8 count I think Paq gets the KO. He almost did anyway even with the extra time for Marquez to clear his head.
