On what basis was Marquez winning the sixth? That was probably the most one-sided round of the fight until the KO.

The KO wasn't set up by anything; Pacquiao got hit by a single punch as he rushed in.

Right, but what exactly 'set up' the punch?

When I say 'set up' I'm referring to something done by Marquez that created an opportunity to land, such as a feint that causes an opponent to drop their hands. D is suggesting that counter punches landed earlier in the round somehow created the opportunity that lead to the KO, and I don't see that; Pacquiao created the opportunity by rushing forward with his hands down independent of anything Marquez did.

That's a different explanaton than the one you gave earlier, and it seems more plausible to me. However, if you watch the replay you'll notice that Pacquiao did not move forward because JMM moved back; JMM was fixed in one spot.

Can't see Arce having the firepower to score the upset.

Can't see an upset here, I can see Arce's face becoming a bloody mess after just a few rounds though..

Donaire by brutal left hook KO. Arce never recovered from the first knock down, his legs were still stiff as a board.

Sweet left hook. Nonito doesn't even look happy, just another day at the office.

His technique defensively has always been awful. He's a total slugger.
