I just think his career is being managed incorrectly. He will definitely lose to Marquez. How the fuck does he go from Hernandez to Marquez. When he lost to Soto, he fought a couple of times after that and then fought Barrera twice. He decides to fight a couple fights after the two losses from Barrera....then he fights Marquez. Juarez needs to step up the competition little by little. After the Barrera losses, Lucero and Hernandez where good fights. But I think after Hernandez he should have fought maybe Gamaliel Diaz, and then either Rudy Lopez or Jorge Solis and if he got by those two fights then he should have been ready for a Marquez or Barrera fight. I just think his career is being rushed.

juarez's match maker or adviser is doing a shotty job. yeah of course you want your fighter to fight for a title and get the win, but you want to set him up, make sure he's ready and capable of winning the championship. rocky seems to be put all over the place, no real direction is how he's being managed, at least from how it looks to me.......
I think his flaws are beyond his handlers.
He needs a premiere trainer @ this stage in his career. Steward would be PERFECT for Juarez. He has the skills but is too blase in there. No emotion.
I think if he and his handlers should have planned out his career better, he should have stayed at featherweight after he got beat by Soto. If he stays at super featherweight he isnt gong anywhere, he needs to go back down to featherweight where he can make some noise.
Only if its interim. He lacks desire to actually fight. He gets in a few shots and backs up. He needs more pressure. Is he fraid of gassing? Hard to say.
Hes like Sechew, Michael Grant, and Audley in that sense. Not as bad as but still similiar traits.
Can he become a champion? Probably. Just look at Glen Johnson, he had 9 defeats before he won the IBF title against Clinton Woods. Then he KO'ed Roy Jones and beat Antonio "Legendary Bulllshi$$er" Tarver.
He just need to be more aggressive.
The short answer would be a simple "no". Juarez is a very talented boxer who is a prime example of a mismanaged career. I think he has the talent to be a recognized midcarder, but as long as guys like Pacquiao, Barrera and Marquez are ruling the roost, he doesn't have much of a chance of dethroning them.
