There can't be a "rubber match," as marquez didn;t win either of the first two fights. He was lucky enough to get a draw in one. I thought he lost by 5 or 6 points (as did one of the judges).
Yep this ain't a rubber match at all theoretically. Anyways if team marquez wants the fight badly 8 figures will do . Lets get it on.
This is bull****, Marquez got hit the whole night by straight left from a old Casamayor, who have lost to Santa Cruz and almost to one dimension fighter like Katsidis . It's a good win, but I wouldn't say impressive because we expected no less than that.
Moving to lightweight, Pacquiao is stronger and Marquez is slower. Pacquiao will KO him at this weight.
I totally agree. I still think it is funny that the guys and gals on this site think JMM would beat Pacman at a weight more suited for him. As for JMM's next opponent, it will not be Pacman unless some kind of miracle happens. I hope people don't honestly think JMM would beat Juan Diaz, and from what I understand, if this happen, this will be more dangerous fight because of Diaz's pressure style. I could defiantly see JMM losing this one.
this is what i dont understand about you, i know you're a marquez fan but you are discrediting his win because Casa's best wins years are behind him, yet you turn around and completely praise Floyd's win over DLH and Baldomir? DLH was not passed his prime? Baldomir was an actual WW threat because he had THE belt? So this doesn't apply to Marquez? he just beat THE LW champion who has had more significant WINS than DLH did when Floyd fought him and Baldomir, well, he's Baldomir. Can you explain this through process? not hating, but just trying to see why the situation is different.
Baldomir is probably the best ever Argentinian fighter ever and was the champion, not to mention a 10 year undefeated, in a time the WW division was packed with talent so if you call him a bum, i suggest you to take a good long look at the scene today. I honestly think Marquez win over Casamayor was a bigger event than Floyd's over Baldomir, but Oscar is an whole different story. To come up from being in his top and natural weight at 130 all the way to 154 under your opponents terms and still beat him, even if he was 34 and you were 30 is a very unique accomplishment. If it hadn't happened people would be saying (actually they were saying that until the end of the fight and some even after the fight until the compubox numbers were out or they replayed it) it could not be done. Sure Oscar did stop jabbing but that was a tactical mistake he has done his whole career and so many failed to make him pay for that, but still doesn't take nothing away from Floyd's win over him.
If Pacquiao can win vs Oscar, even almost 2 years later i'd still give him credit because he's even smaller than Floyd and his style is very dangerous for himself vs Oscar, you see, Oscar won't need to jab 12 rounds.
