Fight 1: Close fight, Pacquiao gets the knock downs and Marquez dominates the rest, but it's fair enough he lost due to the knock downs.

Fight 2: Close fight, I personally think JMM won but I can see the argument for Pac

Fight 3: Meant to solve it all, Pac is a heavy favorite. JMM comes in and dominates then gets robbed. Everybody knows he is the real winner of the trilogy there was so far

Fight 4: Close fight, Pac got dropped HARD then handed nice shots on a game JMM in a war, pac was 1 point up then JMM landed a punch that knocked him the fuck out to cement the series.

There is really no need for a fifth fight, or are we just going until we can give Pac a win against a 40 year old man to claim it means something?

Personally the only "robbery" was the third one, and we had a rematch and that was settled. I think the argument is that it was a great fight, where Pacman looked on top and he'll feel he was on the way to a stoppage win and he's given JMM chances to redeem himself even when there was no robbery (controversy though) so he'll feel it's payback that he gets another shot after giving JMM another one after first two. Personally I think they should both retire, or Pac should fight a beatable opponent in the Philippines in a farewell bout and then retire

 

[Chatty]

Money will be the main reason

Secondly every fight has been brilliant and they have great chemistry

Thirdly Marquez can draw level, Pacquaio can look for revenge against a guy he was outboxing other than two massive KD's

Fourthly, other than mayweather their is no bigger fight for either

Fifthly, Manny gave marquez three shots at redemption so if Manny wants to try again then Marquez owes him that. Marquez shouldn't be bothered about getting into the ring with someone he believes he has beaten four times already so no problems in negotiation.

a "strange but true" role reversal :lol:

Its one of the biggest fights that can be made in boxing and its pretty much guaranteed to be massively entertaining - why not?

 

[Vano-irons]

Why a 5th? Because the 4th was an absolute classic, as were fights 1 and 2.

Pacquiao, on my card, was dominating the fight, only losing the 3rd. He also looked like he'll take Marquez out in the 5th. Pacquiao was probably performing better against Marquez last night than any other time they have fought.

A massive fight in Mexico would make $$$$

Because legacy wise it makes no sense. Close fight, close fight, clear fight with a robbery, KO win redemption.

Why would it not "mean something" if Pacquiao were to attain a legitimate victory over a fighter of Marquez's calibre? Age is irrelevant(within reason obviously) for the most part, it's on a case-by-case basis and Marquez clearly showed last night that he's hardly your stereotypical 40 year-old fighter.

He showed last night he is better, but it's the way that let's say there is a rematch and he wins, will there be another one? It makes money and it's exciting? How about they just fight each other forever?

 

[Ilesey]

Nah, it needs to be put to rest now. Say they rematch and it's stopped because of a head clash, or another close decision that could have gone either way - would there then be a sixth?

If I were Marquez I'd end the rivalry on that very comprehensive note.

Sometime's thats all you need to make a series of fights viable. The action in all four fights so far was top notch and the skill and heart shown was immense. I dont think a fifth one would be any less and I can understand why people would want to see it, even though id probably want the two to go their separate ways. After all why did rivalry's like LaMotta-Robinson, Chacon-Limon, and Vazquez-Marquez etc go on for so long?

 

[Steve Funn]

Because legacy wise it makes no sense. Close fight, close fight, clear fight with a robbery, KO win redemption.

Pac is still officially in front and a lot of people have the series at 2-2 so I dont think a win for either would be meaningless at all.

I just think with all of the shit that goes on with good fights not getting made theres no need to complain about a fight that would almost definitely be really good potentially getting made. If it gets made and its a good fight and you enjoy it are you really going to be sat there at the end going 'but there was no need for that!' ?

That's a question based on something that might happen as a result of something that might happen. He hardly proved he was infinitely superior, either. Considering it's arguable he didn't take a round barring the 3rd before he NUKED THE BED, I'm of the opinion that there's enough room for doubt that a rematch is a viable option. Under the precipice that Pacquiao hasn't been utterly ruined by that shot, which isn't beyond the realms of possibility.

Not that a 5th encounter is my first choice, but yeah, I'd have no real issues with it being made. I couldn't care less about how much of a money-spinner it is and rarely take "politics" into account, but purely in a boxing-sense it would still be a fight of significance as far as I'm concerned.

I don't think there needs to be a fifth instalment, but my God I would love to see it. In don't think that you need any more justification other then it is a guaranteed excellent fight, what more do you want?

 

[Vano-irons]

A 5th fight is a lot better than Froch / Bute 2.

You say there's no point in a rematch as there's been two close fights and two clear fights, but you fail to mention that Pacquiao was handily beating Marquez last night before that belter. From a Pacquiao point of view, it should happen. As from a Marquez point of view, money wise it makes all the sense. He isn't going to make 20 million fighting Rios.

Because they would both make 8 figures, again.

That's because Froch/Bute 2 is also pointless. Why bring that up?

Pac deserves a rematch cause he was up by 1 round at the time he got KTFO?

marquez ko6 pacquiao.
