Well, as many of my readers know, I am a big time boxing and MMA fan. That's a fact. But, I'd like to point out that despite the greatness of Manny Pacquiao and Juan Manuel Marquez, I wouldn't want to see another installment. I have a weakness for this fight so I'm probably still going to watch the fight anyway.
My problem is that fighting 4 times is too much. What do they have to do? Wait until they do permanent damage to one another? That's 144 minutes of brutality assuming that the 4th fight will go 12 rounds as well, which is what I think it will be to begin with. Of course, there's no guarantee to that. The point is that this better be the last time.
The thing about Pacquiao and Marquez is that their styles are well-matched for the other's style. It's always going to be a hard-fought fight no matter what. This is why people still disagree on who actually won the previous 2 fights. Even the 1st one was controversial despite the fact that Pacquiao knocked Marquez down multiple times. Styles make fights, but if one of the men strays away from his strategies from the previous fights, it will be a long night for him.
Please, let this be the last fight. The fans deserve closure.
