...all those years ago.
I remember when this fight was being rumored and the whole boxing community was criticising Khan for targeting a 'smaller fighter'.
I wish Beristain didn't duck that fight because I believe Khan had the right style to win and get an ATG's name on his record.
Instead, Marquez went on to look as good as ever, and Khan suffered some set-backs.
Khan vs Marquez at 140 would have been a classic for as long as it lasted. Shame it didn't happen.
Khan wanted to but Nacho said no he told Marquez GBP is trying to use you as a stepping stone for Khan. I wish they would have fought though it would have been one hell of a fight.
In order to beat Juan you have to be a great boxer. Khan is not a great boxer, he will rush in with his combinations and get knocked out. Khan is no Mayweather, his defense is open and he trusts his chin too much to defeat a combination counter-puncher like Marquez.
That is true but you gotta remember that was a counterpuncher vs a counterpuncher. Floyd won that because he forced marquez to fight out of his element and become the stalker. Khan would be the one coming in with his flurries which would give marquez opportunities to counter
Exactly... Khan makes too many mistakes..
The only mismatch here would be throwing Khan in with Marquez because Khan would be eating counters all night
Marquez got annihilated by Mayweather on footspeed and natural reach and height. Khan was a terrible matchup for him. Glad the fight never happened. Far too many advantages to the younger fighter and a pointless fight.

Danny Garcia can KO Khan with ease... but Marquez can't?
Maidana can make Khan chicken dance for four rounds.... but Marquez can't?
The great Breidis Prescott couldn't be Ud'd by Khan... but Marquez can?
This is covert Rican dick riding people... too try and make Danny Garcia look better... somebody Garcia easily slapped about could beat Marquez :yeah:
hey tool bag, you ever heard of bad style match ups/mismatches?
Fackin clown, nice over view of triangle thories there.
khan would beat marquez than and now 140-147 UD

up there in the bold has nothing contradictory to my post whatsoever, matter of fact you re-iterate it. so :fu2:
I haven't even been close to mentioning anything about garcia in this thread you idiot. Matter of fact Garcias ko is another example of a well timed shot too.
Timing against speed buddy, it showed in both fights. Marquez had to have the perfect moment to land his well practiced shot against pac and he was fortunate the time was right cuz he was getting his **** pushed in. Deserves fighter of the year and all, but khan cruises to an easy ud against marquez, then and now 140-47.
:tool:

haha Pacquiao has a granite chin and took bombs from Marquez in every fight.. it was just the perfect punch with all Mannys bodyweight added to the force of the shot...
Khan would look like a new born giraffe if Marquez landed any half decent power punch when Khan rushe's in... you're a moron and I'm sure most agree
Are you trying to make Garcia look better? are you a Rican dick rider????

Khan got robbed that fight period. Peterson has size and strength, that simply marquez couldn't match.
Don't get me wrong I like Marquez, hall of famer and all, but people act like he didn't have 8+ years to time and counter 1 opponent in pacquiao.
So yea, matter of fact i wouldn't be surprised if Khan completely embarrases him and knocks him down a couple of times too.:boxing:

Old piss breath has turned down several considerable offers over the course of his career.But it makes for a much better story to perpetuate the myth that he was avoided like the plague for so many years and was denied the same opportunities that his Mexican brethren received.
Once Marquez's right finds home, then its night night. Back when there were rumors about them fighting I had Kahn wining by ud. But now that Marquez showed how powerful his right is, I lean towards Marquez more.
Why is Marquez ducking a Bradley fight?
he would probably get robbed against a nobody, thats probably the reason.
In all seriousness, bradley wins that fight if it happens.
You are missing the point Khan's performance in the Peterson fight was pathetic and exposed his woeful in fighting skills and inability to deal with pressure regardless of the result. If he won the fight he still looked like junk.
Peterson's preassure and Marquez preassure are 2 COMPLETELY different ballparks. The preassure peterson was puttin on Khan that fight was on a sacle of 1 to 10 a 12. So khan had to reverto to whatever is it that you describe as pathetic to keep peterson off of him.
And he still got robbed.
Marquez won't really be preassuring, all that will be happening is marquez trying to keep his head stable from stiff jabs to the face, and whatever khan feels like doing after that.
It should be made, it'll bring khan back out of the shadows.
You either don't have a house or you want to lose it. If Peterson can cause the kind of problems he did for Khan it is not hard to see what Marquez would do to Khan. Khan has too many flaws and Marquez would work out how to exploit them and time him with counters when rushing in.

Khan would beat Marquez then and now, it's a style thing, Nacho knows what time it is. Marquez struggles badly with a jab, it's the one punch he just eats time and again. Khan has such a height, and reach advantage, speed to go along with, and a very good jab. The chances of Khan getting taken out in the same fashion as he did against Garcia are slim, it's a possibility of course, but a very slim one. khan UD
