This match is expected to be the most exciting fight of the year, since the two boxing icons have already faced each other in two previous tight battles. The first bout was in 2004 which ended in a controversial draw. They fought again four years later, when the Filipino boxer won in a split decision and took away Marquez’s WBC super featherweight title.

Marquez, the reigning WBO and World Boxing Council (WBC) lightweight champion, is believed by many fight experts to be the next best opponent for Pacquiao in the absence of one of pound-for-pound greatest fighters Floyd Mayweather Jr.

However, Marquez admitted that age is going to be the greatest factor of this match. Boxing analysts believe that Pacquaio will overcome Marquez in this fight. Marquez obviously shows signs of athletic aging and facing the younger and larger Manny Pacquiao would be a tough feat for him. But still Marquez is more than determined to defeat Pacquaio and finally give closure to the debate on who really is the greater fighter.

The difference now is that Marquez doesn't have the size and power of those Pacquaio previously fought.

If Floyd Mayweather Jr. is still not available, WBA/WBO lightweight champion Juan Manuel Marquez might be the next opponent of the 8-division world champion Manny Pacquiao after his fight with the 5-time world champion Sugar Shane Mosley.

This was the statement of Coach Freddie Roach after Top Rank promoter Bob Arum formally announced the Pacquiao vs. Mosley fight for the WBO welterweight title on May 7 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.

According to Roach, he would want the idea of a re-match between Marquez and Pacquiao to prove to the critiques who believe that it was actually the Mexican who really won in the two fights against Pacquiao.

Coach Freddie Roach is convinced that the 8-division world champion Manny Pacquiao will do what other boxers had not done to the 3-division world champion Shane Mosley: A knockout.

"Shane is a very durable guy. He has a good chin. It won’t be easy but I think we can stop him in the late rounds. It won’t be an easy fight. When he beat Margarito, everyone thought he was the best fighter at welterweight. We’re going to train very hard for this fight. We don’t take any opponent lightly," Roach added.

The 39-year-old Shane Mosley has only one loss and that was with his fight against Vernon Forrest last 2002. But he was defeated through a decision and not by a knockout.

Oscar de la Hoya, Winky Wright, Ricardo Mayorga, Antonio Margarito, Fernando Vargas and Floyd Mayweather, Jr were among the few whom Mosley had fought with in the past.
