Marquez, please retire.

marquez is a legend. hope he fights katsidis, then maybe unify wbc title against soto and perhaps his last fight against pac, no higher than 140 tho. hope he doesnt fight kahn

First off I wanna say congratulations on the win. JMM is a true aztec warrior and was a complete beast in his prime. But at 36 years old he simply can't hang with the best. Khan would out point him and pac would clean K.O him. Boxers never seem to be able to retire after a win when they get old, they drag themselves into the ring at damn near 40 years old and take unnecessary beatings. He had a hell of a career but it's time to let go. Maybe start up a gym and train kids. Most likely JMM will be inducted to the HOF. Anyone else agree? http://image3.examiner.com/images/blog/wysiwyg/image/juan-manuel-marquez.jpg People,Marquez shouldn't be fighting over 135,he can stay there & defend his title at least 3 more times,he shouldn't fight anyone over 135,it's that simple!!

One more fight, Katsidis will send him to retirement and be the first to KO JMM. katsidis i give him a good chance marquez might not be able to keep up with the pace. marquez hands was moving to slow for me on the inside last night. and those legs are gone. it would be a close fight for both fighter. he aint knocking jmm out unless the ref push him back down like the ref did danny last night. leave 140 alone jmm

Yeah man. I mean he won tonight, but against a guy that lost twice to paulie malignaggi. In JMM's prime he would've killed diaz without breaking a sweat. He actually beat diaz first before Paulie ever stepped in the ring with diaz. THe reason the fight was slower then the first is because of diaz. Diaz was fighting to make it through 12, h wasnt pressing the fight like the first bout. Marquez hasnt lost it yet. Just cause your 36 doesnt mean you cant fight with the best. Not everyone ages the same...ask Hatton and Cotto...those 2 guys are younger and are damaged goods.

One point you may be missing is that boxer's spend their entire career building a name/reputation and it's usually only in the last few years of their career they get to make serious money. The temptation to fight on increases with the bigger paychecks. So whilst it's noble to retire at the peak of your career, at the same time you can't blame JMM for wanting to make as much cash as possible before his earning potential disappears. well said i heard morales say the same thing in an interview before he retired then came back

I thought Marquez looked pretty good last night. At 135, he could be competitive with Pacquiao imo. Anything above 135 against Pacquiao and he gets beat though. I'd favor Khan against him also but i would still give Marquez a decent chance.

wow a guy has a dominating unanimous decision win and you think he should retire you guys are idiots

One more fight, Katsidis will send him to retirement and be the first to KO JMM.

JMM is a soldier baby!:boxing: He had one hell of a boxing career. He should call it quits.

He would look like sensational decapitating Michael Katsidis. That would be a nice way to bow out. Do not fight Amir Khan. Please.

he is done,Pacquiao would KO him in round 1

See, you talked about him against one guy a division above him and another two divisions above him. At 135 (or lower considering what weight he came in at and how good he looked) Marquez is still probably the best fighter in the world.

I think he should fight Pacman and get killed just to satify some debates here.

Hes had a top career, good fighter. I think he should retire because he will get hurt in the future

Fight Katsidis and then retire, win or lose.

you guys know the only reason theright side of his face was sweeling was because of a thumbing right? He looke spectacular tonight but, i don't want him to end up liek casamayor or castillo. He should fight 1-3 more times and call it a career.

Yeah man. I mean he won tonight, but against a guy that lost twice to paulie malignaggi. In JMM's prime he would've killed diaz without breaking a sweat.
