If it were a power issue, when Juan got up he would've looked woozy or stunned. But he didn't, he always just sat right up and got back to fighting.



    No doubt Juan has never been in a wrestling match before, I'll give you that one. But I still think Marquez would be too crafty, maybe even take a page out of Floyd's book and use his elbows to create punching space.

    But I wouldn't want to hear Ricky piss and moan over that again for another 6 months.
    jmm also went down against mab. i don't think jmm is strong enough to do what mayweather did against hatton.

      True, but that was a perfectly placed counterpunch. I was always pissed Barrera never got credit for that one. Anyway, I don't see Ricky having the technical ability to thread a shot like Marco did.

          Definitely. We'll just have to agree to disagree on the winner until the fight happens, if it happens.

            Based on what I saw last night I gotta go with Hatton. He looked sharp and confident again. I think he'd use his size advantage to pound out a hard fought decision win.

              140 might not be good for marquez.

              135 is loaded too, he doesn't have to look very far.

                  Marquez would beat Hatton, he's just to good at counter punching. I see Marquez tagging Hatton over the course of 12 rounds cutting him up in the process maybe even getting a late stoppage.

                    This will definitely be a good fight..

                    I'll be edging for JMM, but its a fifty-fifty chance.

                    He might win this fight via stoppage(bloodying the face of hatton) or via scorecard. Mostly by counters as Hatton comes in like what Mayweather did. He should counter and move laterally and should not engage Hatton on a brawl(midrange) as his usual style because Hatton could close-in, then hug and punch.

                    If Hatton hits him good he'll go down..I'm hoping that his speed is enough to escape Hatton's solid punches...

                      nah, jmm doesn't punch hard enough to keep hatton off him. I could see hatton bleeding but the fight won't be stopped.
