Jaca put on a performance that would beat most opponents, and that should impress anybody. There is no shame in losing to a superstar like Marquez.

JMM should only be fighting world class opponents. Jaca still has a lot to learn. He should stay in the US and fight here. No other place will get you better experience.

I'm not. Powder puncher and innaccurate.

I thought Jimrex fought well,Especially with a superior skilled boxer. I too was impressed!!!

It maybe becuase JMM is more willing to trade rather than wait and counter. The old JMM would not have been hit as much as he was last weekend.

JMM should clear out the 126 division before moving up to 130. He can do that in 8 months.

Exactly. Jaca was good, but if Marquez hadn't arrived looking to trade shots, Jaca would have been chasing shadows all night - and getting hit by them a copious amount of times.
