Pacquiao, a congressman in his native Philippines, will be heavily favored when they meet at a catchweight of 144 pounds. He is vastly improved in recent years and owns three consecutive lopsided 12-round decisions. The most recent came May 7, when Shane Mosley did well to survive.
Weight and age are hardly on Marquez's side. When he entered the ring vs. Mayweather at 142 pounds on Sept. 19, 2009, the native of Mexico City complained that the career-high weight explained why his counterpunching style was so ineffective against Mayweather's famously fast hands as he was dominated for 12 rounds.
