I had the pleasure to see a Juan Manuel Marquez fight back in 2003 in Worley, Idaho, and let me tell you, this guy can beat anyone he steps in the ring with. I had a golden ringside seat I bought for only $50 and got to witness one of the most awesome knockouts I've ever seen. [1st round knockout of a Detroit fighter named Johnny Walker.] Anyway, I'm equally as excited to see Marquez vs. Barrera as I am Floyd vs. Oscar. I just wanted to let everyone know ahead of time that after Marquez knocks Barrera's block off, he's going to straight up decapitate that little Pacman.

You havent been paying attention.
You based your theory on 1 fight with a boxer I have never even heard of.
Not only that but you have probably never seen JMM vs Pac.
Pac knocked him down 3 times in round 1. And believe me Pac is way better now than he was back then. -
I love Pac. He's a great fighter, great heart, great power and he is improving all the time. And yeah, he did knock JMM down 3 times in round one, which was incredible. But he was then steadily outboxed from round 3 onwards, which EVERYONE on this forum is either in denial about or has conveniantly forgotten. I think Marquez will beat Barrera, and then hopefully Pac and JMM can rematch. I would slightly pick Pac to win, because as you rightly point out, he has improved since then, but I wouldnt be surprised in Marquez outboxes him again.Comment

Certainly a fighter who is deserving, JMM was ignored for years by the two other Mexican killers-Ill be rooting for JMM and I give him the slight advantage.Comment

Another great fight this year to look forward to.I see Marquez outboxing Barrera in a compeititive fight.Comment

I like MAB,but I think at this point of their careers,JMM is much more to prove...I'll have to take JMM.Comment

And both time people thought he was robbed. Marquez is a differnt fighter now then when he fougth those guys.
Neither ducked him. They have always been doing there thing and Marquez his. Marquez has had a few setbacks in his career.Comment

I said ignored not ducked-he was ignored by Morales and Barerra, do you dispute this?
What set backs are you referring to? After he lost a close fight with Norwood he was undefeated for at least 5 years, your right MAB and Morales were off busy fighting each other but that was financial-and so was not fighting JMM far to big a risk for far too little reward.
Finally in the twighlight things have changed, good for JMM he can no longer be ignored!Comment

Barrera could hurt Marquez and he will do it in couple of occasions.Comment
