Clottey is a gigantic welterweight - Marquez is a very small lightweight. Do the math. Clottey lands and Marquez will drop. He'll never quit - he's too proud for that, but Clottey could knock him cold. He's not a big puncher - for a welterweight, but he's got heavy hands, and this would be a tragic, one-sided beating while it lasted.
Good post. Just shows you what a phenom Pac is, he came from a smaller weightclass than JM and totally shut down Clottey
I even think JMM's peak was superfeather. I like to see him against Khan who he may have a chance since Khan's chin is still suspect...
if you think JMM's peak was at SuperFeather .... why even bring up this type of sorry "DayDream fight" ???!!!
Clottey by KO? I don't think so.
Clottey couldn't take out an old, defenseless, blown up lightweight in Corrales (RIP).
How would Clottey be able to stop Marquez? I see a possibility of a stoppage from cuts/swelling on Marquez's face.
I'm curious to see if Marquez's epic left uppercut will get through Clottey's guard.
Even if it could, Clottey's so tough and Marquez is so small that it would bounce off. Marquez could land counter right hand after counter right hand (although I doubt it, Clottey's very technically sound) and still not leave a scratch. If Clottey has the heart of a fighter, he'll want to come back after that disappointing - understatement - Pacquiao fight. And he will go hard after Marquez. The size difference is too much.

Everyone seems to agree Marquez is at his best at Lightweight so does that mean he should defend his titles against Katsidis and just forget about fighting Amir Khan ?:boxing:
I never liked this fight & just see Khan looking to use Marquez to build his name as he is still not very popular worldwide !

I think so i dont like a fight with Khan because at this age and at his size he wouldnt have much of a chance other then landing a big punch against the younger bigger Khan. Katsidis would probably make for a foty candidate against Marquez and i would actually favor Marquez in that fight.
Marquez is an idiot if he tries going back up again
Clottey would beat his ass
Yup and Marquez style is tailor made for Clottey who I believe is stronger the Floyd...
