The two fighters met their first fight last 2004 where Manny Paquiao brought Marquez in the canvass for three times but the latter recover in the later rounds and ended up a controversial draw.
Many people said it was a controversial decision but Manny reiterated in his column in philboxing.com that he will do his best so that no more reason that He will be cheated in the fight. But JM Marquez also said in their press conference that MP is not a Mexican killer because he did’nt beat himself.
In this fight MP assures through his column that he is in the best condition, shape and focus and will do the best to beat the mexican champion. On the other hand, many analyst believe that JMM is very much prepared for the fight that could give MP a problem in the ring because He had trained for so long.
But the showdown is coming, Lets wait and see if who among them said the same as what will be the history to tell.
