marquez couldn't handle a tournament at this point in his career. He could still beat one of those guys on a good night, but his body couldn't endure 2-3 fights in a row in a short time. And no way is berto making 140, that guy is big.
I would love to see this fight happen. I would give pacquiao a slight chance to beat this guy, but i would think mayweather would stand a better chance. Mayweather would make martinez chase him, and when that happens its over.
NO ONE BUY THIS FIGHT. its just really horrible and contributes to the demise of the sport. Promoters put these fights on because they think fans are stupid.
anyone who thought valuev won that fight should be banned from posting. Haye made him look foolish. All valuev did was throw shitty jabs that haye dodged masterfully. Congrats to Haye. Very impressive.
i think dirrell has a very good shot to win here. He is quicker and has better outside boxing skills than anyone abraham has faced. Abraham is flat footed and wont be able to hit dirrell unless dirrell makes a mistake.

Everyone settle down. Valero looked great but he is not the best lightweight yet. First of all Demarco is hardly top competition at lightweight. He got a gift when he fought adjaho who knocked himself out.
Ali Funeka easily knocks out Valero
Im still not sold on Valero. He needs to get his visa and fight a big name in the US before i say he's the best lightweight. I think Funeka beats him, and probably Marquez. Hope he fights Marquez tho.
look people there is no way that pacquiao is going to lose to margarito. Margarito at this point is a TALL SLOW PUNCHING BAG. And to top it off, hes extremely rusty because he hasn't been able to fight much in the last two years. (Do you think Arum would risk putting Pacquiao in with a good fighter when a mayweather fight next year looms??)
Bottom line is this....this fight is garbage. Pacquiao has absolutely no chance of losing. People bitch about the sport of boxing but yet they let promoters get away with this. Just dont buy the PPV and if you have to watch it, then go to a bar and pay the cover.
if maidana is so easy, why didn't they just fight him first? I think secretly freddie knows its a hard fight and he may just be trying to get in maidana's head. I like maidana by stoppage if they ever fight, but honestly i dont think its going to happen. I see alexander fighting maidana cuz thats a favorable matchup for him. Khan wont fight a big name for atleast a year. He'll probably fight some lightweights.
Maidana is a bada** and would knock Khan out guaranteed. The fact that Khan is ducking people makes me dislike him. Promoters should take note that fighters wont build a fan base unless they impress
screw donaire and darchinyan! Its hard to care about puny little fighters especially if they dont fight each other. How in the hell is donaire ranked in the top 5 pound for pound??? What is the obsession with this guy??
Maidana has been one of the bright spots of boxing in the last two years. He is such a great crowd pleasing figther and he seems to be getting better with each fight. Hes starting to develop really good defense and a jab to go with his rediculous power. Its inevitable that guys will avoid him like Khan because he can literally damage someone's career permanently.
the fact that so many people despise Amir Khan should be a signal to promoters that they cant just baby a fighter along and expect him to become a superstar. Amir Khan should have given Maidana his mandatory and then i would of respected him....and he'd probably lose that fight anyway
pacquiao has HUGE balls for even THINKING of takeing this fight
margarito has a huge size and reach advantage and is a known cheater so who knows what he'll do in mexico where the sanctioning body prolly operates out of a taco bellpacquiao win or lose deserves everyones respect for taking the fight meanwhile floyd wont fight when his uncle is wearing a orange jumpsuit HAHAHAHA
You obviously know nothing about Boxing. Margarito is TALL, SLOW AND COMES FORWARD. That is pretty much the formula for losing to Pacquiao. This fight sucks and i think Pacquiao knocks him out within 3 or 4 rounds.
Lets be clear. EVERYONE HAS BEEN TRYING TO GET A FIGHT WITH MARGARITO BECAUSE HE SUCKS. Martinez and Angulo just to name a few. Do you honestly think Arum would put Pacquiao in a tough fight when Mayweather looms in the Spring? I'd rather see Pac vs Marguez III or Pac vs Mosley
