Former three division world champion Juan Manuel Marquez (53-6-1, 39KOs) looks ready for battle. The Mexican star took part in a seven day weigh-in at the Romanza Gym. Under the watchful eye of trainer Nacho Beristain, Marquez weighed in at 144-pounds, only four pounds above the junior welterweight limit for the fight with Sergey Fedchenko (30-1, 13KOs) on April 14th at the New Arena Mexico in Mexico City. The vacant WBO interim-junior welterweight title will be at stake.
