As we all know they both Lost their last fights by 1 point which one of the Marquez brothers did better? they both did a great job and the decisions could of gone the other way. I'm just asking because I was having a conversation about this with some other boxing fan I know.
Not to down play Rafael, but i think Juan Manuel showed more control throughout his fight and also finished the fight more convincingly than Rafael who looked a bit frantic towards the end. I too think JMM won the last round and have no idea how Lederman gave it to Pacquiao. I'd have to say that the Marquez brothers are probably my favorite boxers as of right now. They can box beautifully putting together strategic and accurate combinations but are not afraid to mix it up when necessary, is there a better recipe than that? These are two great boxers to study. Bravo to them and to Nacho Berstain.
I had JMM winning by a point, so I will say Juan. Rafa did great, but he lost the fight in the last round, whereas I thought JMM won the last round and the fight.
I think Rafa took more of an initiative against Izzy and was more agressive and controlled the fight more than Juan did his fight. Not to say Juan wasnt agressive, but he rightfully was more cautious. I'd have to go with Rafa.
