42Who will finish the Business, Pacquiao or Marquez?
"Unfinished Business" is the promotional title of the upcoming bout between Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao and Mexican champion Juan Manuel Marquez this March 15, 2008 in Mandalay Bay Las Vegas Nevada USA. The two are eager to finish their hostility inside the ring and both fighter vows to win via the short route. Marquez, the defending super featherweight champion is a cut above the rest among the Mexican fighters in his division. He is a good counter puncher that packs a wallop which makes his opponent confused and unable to parry blows from different directions. Also, Marquez is good at 130 and meeting the weight limit is not a problem for the champion. In contrast, the controversial Pacquiao is having difficulty in reducing his weight. His body weight has greatly increased since the last time he fought. Pacquiao was forced to scale down his weight in a hurry risking his body to lose energy and diminish his punching power come fight night. This was what happened to Eric Morales when he fought Pacquiao in their third and last encounter. Morales easily beaten by Pacquiao because he lost stamina or strength that supposedly helped Morales to counter attacked the surging Pacquiao. Forecast: Marquez is in an advantage position and will win over Pacquiao via stoppage in round 7 or 8.
