The 35 year old Marquez faces the 25 year old Diaz at 135 pounds.
Great fight fought at a high level, lots of back and forth action, no clinches, no BS.
Yes, Marquez was a great fighter especially at the lower weights, lost a bit moving beyond 135.
He did what a fighter is supposed to do when they move to a new division. He cleared 135 out...he didn’t cherrypick a belt and move on like other fighters do. I agree he wasn’t anywhere near his best above 135 tho.

Was just too small. Was heading towards 40 as well. I do think he should be a five weight champ though, I thought he won the third Pac fight pretty clearly- and I’m a Pacquiao fan.
Great knockout. JMM’s lightweight run is underrated IMO.
