Pacquiao vs Marquez IV fight is on. For the fourth time the fellows from the Philippines and Mexico will faceeach other again. For their first three fights, Pacquiao edges Marquez with a 2-1-0-1 (W-L-KO-D) records. The two losses that Marquez acquired from Pacquiao, he was always complains of a robbery which ironically Pacquioa suffered from the "paper champion" Bradley.
Now, on their fourth fight, Marquez projected a win over his nemesis.
Did Pacquiao made a good choice of choosing Marquez as his next opponent?
My point of view follows;
Though Pacquiao has nothing left to prove in the boxing world with his achievements with in the sport.
I think Pacquiao is taking a risk.
Marquez has the technique (aside from stepping on Pacman's foot) to beat Pacquiao.
A rematch with Bradley has sense than fighting a man who you have beaten 2 times (should have been thrice).
Marquez maybe older but he has still the sting to pin Pacman down.
Pacquiao on the other hand, he may not admit it but his age is catching up with him.
His agility is not the same as what he has before.
Bottomline:
Pacquiao at his stage right now...
has a career route of....
"Fight Mayweather, if match-up will not materialize then it's time to hang the gloves."
He has nothing left to prove.
He had done enough for the sport and for the Philippines.
