Pacquiao has definitely made the Philippines proud! I know of some people who considers Manny their hero. I'm very excited for their fight this Sunday. Do you consider Manny Pacquiao to be the greatest boxer of all time?

The greatest boxer, a good man. I'm from the Philippines myself and Manny didn't just made the Philippines proud, he gave us all good entertainment. (It's like holiday here when he fights, people deserted all their work just to watch! Imagine that!)

Pacquiao indeed is the greatest boxer of all time. he is a complete boxer, mastering all dimensions of the game. A lot of people compare him to the great Muhammad Ali. Small minded people call Ali the greatest because he himself said he is the greatest and they believed him, and still do. But can Ali's feet move as good as Manny's? or as fast for that matter. Manny hits opponents from different angles with incredible speed and accuracy. No other boxer in the history of the game is as diverse and as complete as the Pacman.

I guess Ali's feet never move as fast as Manny. I'm not really a huge fan of boxing, unlike you. Based on his last fight, I guess you saw how Marquez smiled before they said the winner, Manny on the other hand prayed. I don't think any other boxer did that. Manny is really unlike any other boxer.

Hi!ayvanee. I truly agree with you that Pacquiao is the greatest fighter of all time.
He is really one of a kind! He has the best discipline and very religious too. He shares his blessings to others that's why his blessings continue to pour. He definitely made our country very proud with all his achievements. I am too excited in this fight. More power to you Manny and continue making our country proud!!
Have a great day!

I heard Marquez went up a higher weight division in order to have this fight against Pacquiao. Therefore, he is new to this weight while Pacquiao is not. Thus, this is an advantage for Pacquiao.
Both fighters almost have the same track record. And each one has its own strengths. Speed is for Pacquiao. Counter attack is for Marquez.
Most sports analyst forecast a win for Pacquiao in the first 6 matches. However, I haven't really heard so much about what sort of preparation Marquez made for this fight so I can't pretty much agree with the analysts. This is the third Pacquiao-Marquez match and I'm pretty sure Marquez prepared for it as much as Pacquiao did.
Nevertheless, I'm betting a win for Pacquiao but it will be either a late win or a draw. Go Pacman!

Pacquiao won! Unfortunately, the fight didn't turn out good. A lot of sports analyst say Marquez should have won because he had more punches than Pacquiao. I didn't really like seeing the fight. It was too not Mannyish. haha. Manny clearly had a hard time fighting Marquez.
