Here are two videos taken by INQUIRER.net multimedia reporter Erika Tapalla during the press conference at Crowne Plaza.

I have seen the fight. I thought Pacquaio injured his left hand after the first round, because I observed that after round one, Pacquiao seldom used his left hand.
Pacquiao will defeat Marquez.
Ferdie A. Cui
I wish and pray that he knocks out Marquez this time. During their first fight in May 2004, I was at the upper ring side with my two sons and witnessed how Pacquiao knocked down Marquez thrice right on the first round, but was always hit by jabs and upper cuts by Marquez. In my opinion, what Manny need as what other noted American trainers such as Emmanuel Steward and Floyd Mayweather’s dad had observed is his “WEAK DEFENSE” ; his hands are not raised high to counter any oncoming jabs or blows. Another, is his not being an “ACCURATE PUNCHER” that most of his combinations are wild and were missing their targets because the way he delivers his combinations is as if “HE’S HITTING THE SPEEDBALL”. Another flaw that I noticed in his recent fight with Barrera, is that his right which he had been using in his last two fights with Erick Morales were nowhere used. I hope he use it this time in this upcoming fight with Marquez. Thank you very much.

Pacquio will be defeated!!
bravo
It’s high time to use your so called “MANILA ICE”. If you will defeat Marquez, then you will reclaim the value of this punch! i’m an avid fan of yours, and i had followed your fights and trainings though i’m now in saudi. Goodluck Manny.

Sana di magkatotoo ang hula ng isang sikat na manghuhula na matatalo si Manny
next year.

Pacman should continue with his quest for superstardom but to do this he must use his training for the coming fight, notably his weak defense. He should effectively balance his jab and oftenly use the right arm to supress Marquez uppercut. Pacman by later round.
Ricky Mendoza
It would be a very interesting fight. If Pacman will be too cautious, just like what he did to MAB, JMM can win. He should be unrelenting in his attack. noticed that when he do this, his opponent became confused and scared, paving for a quick finish. Of course, watch out for the counterpunches of JMM, he’s noted for that. Pacquaio in 10.

Filipino boxers don’t talk too much! Alam natin yan! Sa loob lang ng ring yan ginagawa.Kayang kaya ni Pacman yan with all Filipinos prayers and support.To David: Go back to where u belong!!Baka ako pa magbigay sa yo ng first round K.O.!!
Noveth De Vera
Manny will win. He was the clear winner in their last match, unfortunately it was decided as a draw.
It’s already been a long time, take the World Title belt Manny!
ka miguel
Manny has always been winning aganist Mexican fighter/s. By the Law of Average, he is bound to loose. Marquez is no patsy a Champion in his weight class, willing & able to defend his coveted belt.
But Manny Have turned himself a (almost) complete fighter, albeit, science in his figthing style, situational adjustment, power punches to booth.
Some kind of a deviant fighting style should be employed come Mar. 15
MP should come a winer via a KO

WITH PROPER TRAINING MANNY WILL BEAT JUAN MARQUEZ MANUEL, SURELY 8TH ROUND LANG YAN, MUCH IMPROVED NGAYON SI MANNY COMPARE 4 YEARS AGO
EIGHT ROUND, K.O. MARQUEZ
Dante Sta Ana
I’m confident Manny Pacquiao will beat Juan Manuel Marquez. I’ve watched almost all of Manny’s fight and have analysed that He’s far better fighter than Marquez. In the 1st fight He knockdown Marquez 3 times. Marquez only salvage a draw becuase Manny was not able to attack due to pain on His foot. Now in Marquez last fight with Barrera He was not very impressive at all, I think Barerra should have won without that point deduction. While Manny beat Barerra in a
one sided fight twice. Also Marquez never
fought a fighter with the caliber of Eric Morales so my analysis points to Paquiao by knockout. I’ll put my money with Manny Paquiao (llamadong llamado).
Louie de la Rosa
I suggest to Manny that he should knockout Marquez in the early rounds so there will be no questions in the officiating if the bout is close to a draw because I’m sure the promoters will have a decision with regards to the outcome of the fight. So i suggest to Manny to give his best shot to finish the bout early as possible.
Dante Sta Ana
We Filipinos here in Sydney, Australia always watch the fight whenever Manny Pacquiao fights. The clubs were all full with fans cheering for our kababayan. Don’t worry Manny has improved a lot with His defence and right hand punching power. I’m sure He will knockout Marquez
and with the help of God because He
always pray for strength and power. Mabuhay ka Manny Pacquiao. I would like to watch your fight in Vegas if you could
spare me a ticket. God Bless idol.
Pacman Fan
Go for it Pacman! Knock him down! Isama mo na itong si David… =)
Elmer
yah manny injured his left hand on the 1st round. if he didnt den he probably killed marquez on the 2nd round. the bastard just got lucky on that fyt. im sure he will still nid that luck wen he faces pacman again dis march.
ricardo
Manny will beat the s**t out of Marquez. It was so clear in their first encounter that Manny should’ve won the bout but because of the (intentional?) mistake of one of the judges, who obviuosly was rooting for Marquez, it was declared a draw. Go Manny, show everybody that you are still the man to beat…
froilan
manny has work ethics. his so focused everytime he has a fight. hope he won’t be over confident ‘coz marquez is a good counter puncher. the “dinamita” will become a “dud” this time ‘coz he can’t match the explosiveness of the “people’s champ”. good luck manny!
Ramon
Wag lang ma-distract si Manny sa kanyang mga non-boxing activities at kung maging focus siya sa training at maging determinadong manalo, walang kaduda-duda i-uuwi nya ang belt.
Jojo Deleon
If Manny will focus 110% of his mind for the fight, combined with a hardcore training and most of all, believing to himself that he can do it… then all things are possible! The only catch is… Marquez is doing the same thing… The bottom line is, whom ever draw the first blood Win! Manny P. for me all the way!
Julius
Definitely, it’s Pacman. Nobody in his division (130lbs.) can match his power. He can overpower even Hatton and Mayweather believe me. JMM will be in big trouble. JMM will be out in 6! Pacman should concentrate on his training, no more hunky punky, just stay focus! Good Luck!!!
Jun
What I noticed in the first fight was that when, Pacquiao started backpedalling, Marquez counterpunched with confidence. Everytime, Paquiao go forward, Marquez move forward, scared of Manny’s straight left which knocked him down three times. If Paquiao just move forward and use his right hand more this time and minimize moving backward, he will surely win the fight. Of course all of this begin with him training religiously to gain his fighting condition the same as when he fought Morales the second time around or when when he fought Barrera the first time.
edgar de dios
Manny, you’re a great honor for all of us Filipinos. Your every triumph is happiness for us. So. please be completely focused on your training for this fight. We will all pray for your continued success. May our Lord God bless you in all of your future fights. If you train yourself as hard as you can, nobody at 130 lbs could beat you now.
Pugilist Specialist
Marquez will win via unanimous decision.
Marquez is a resilient fighter. The fact that Pacman injured his hand on their first bout, means that Marquez absorbed his punching power and yet, he was able to finish 12 rounds of boxing action.
Marquez’ fighting style, a counter puncher, is not suitable for Pacquiao.
remskie
manny is best fighter. no.1 in boxing record. manny and marquez is best fight in 1st to 6round. maganda tingnan kac ipakita sigoro sa bawat isa sa kanila na tapusin nila ang laro. pero sa nakita ko si manny ay malakas sa kay marquez. may hangin at malakas ang speed.pwd niya tapusin sa 1to 6 round . pwd kung ibuhus niya ang lakas niya kac marquez is mahina sa mga round na yan. K.O si marquez sa dalawang beses of 3.sa lahat ng boxer sa category ni pacman. wala pang makatalo sa kanya. malakas at matapang. at higit sa lahat may hinawakan na pinatitiwalaan niya na patunay na matalo niya.
