    Would Pac retire? Would a possible Floyd fight be as far away as ever to being made? What would unfold in the World of Manny if he had lost?

    Good question because this is in my opinion the sole reason Marquez didn't get the nod last night... with marquez winning that would take away a potential 100 million dollar fight with Pacman-Mayweather, now if Mayweather had not beatin Marquez the way he did last time or even fought him at all, there would still be a huge fight in the mix...
    But just like DLH-Sturm...DLH got the W cuz of a big payday in the way...

    It would of been money down the drain,which is why Marquez didn't get the decision the majority of the people who watched felt he deserved.It was a business decision as musze put it.

    Marquez gets the nod in BOTH of the last two fights if hes the money fighter.

    The difference is Pacquiao did enough in Fight 2 to justify that decision. That wasnt the case yesterday.

    Pacquiao's KD sealed the fate in the 2nd fight. This time around Marquez was the one landing the telling blows. I still can't digest the 116-112 card.

    A better question is why Jmm didn't fight more aggressively, knowing he wouldn't win the decision in a close fight (I thought Pacquiao won it legitimately in any case so it's not as if I'm defending or trying to justify corruption).

    I dunno what would unfold in the world of Manny, but MWS would be on here saying that Manny had been slipping since the Ledwaba fight and that 32 is the age where most fighters lose their speed.

    Huh? What are you on about? You talk utter shit.

    32 probably IS the age where most fighters lose their speed, it's certainly the age Floyd became noticeably slower. In fact I think Floyd has become gradually slower since 30/31.
