Comments Thread For: Marquez Must Fight Katsidis Or Give Up The Title

[ShoulderRoll]

Katsidis would be an easy fight for him, but I don't think he can make that weight again without suffering ill effects.


Better to drop to 140 and cash out with Hatton.

JMM dont need a belt, fight Hatton and earn another big payday. In paper Hatton is still king at 140, the fighter who dethroned him, has move up to another division. So hatton still got the crown by default, but I dont know for how long though. But I would give JMM or Hatton, big chance against any top 140 pounders including Bradley.

JMM should assess how many fights more he can muster considering his age? If he left with 2 or 3 more fights then go for the money! Hatton still a big name in JWW that would guarantee bigger money to fight him, beside he was eyed as Hatton last opponent in his farewell in the ring. JMM should grab this without hesitation!

I think JMM should call out Chris John...he beat Marquez and for some reason, Marquez hasn't dared mention his name...

Marquez should already have cash, get some redemption.

JMM vs Hatton needs to happen. Although a fight with Katsidis would be an exciting fight to watch, I don't think its a big enough fight for JMM to settle on.

Weight disparity at this point.

As much as like Katsidis, he offers nothing for Marquez.

Marquez needs a few more high-profile fights, and as much as i don't want a ring return from Hatton, it would be a massive offer to turn down. Beating Hatton could lead to Pac (if Pac loses to Mayweather)

Either that, or chase a title at 140.

obviously, marquez is looking for a big money fight. there is not much left in him. he is nearing his end whether he like it or not. his dream trilogy with pacquiao looks so dim for now. he should settle for more in his farewell fights. a fight with hatton may earn him the dollars he need for his retirement.

he should challenge hatton for that.

JMM did not do good when he went up in weight. I have all the respect for JMM, he is a warrior no doubt, has a great family, but he needs to forget Pacmang !! Since Pacmang has finally come into his true weight which is , what , 144-145 and fighting now at 147 about three true pounds above his NOW natural weight, He would nearly murder little JMM.

If I were him, I would dump the title , take a huge fight, and go from there. Fight Hatton ! Don't fight Kahn ! Make some big dough ! If you win , do another fight if you still feel good, 35 -36 is old for a little guy, not for a Heavyweight.

Stay strong JMM,,,, I LOVED it when in Hbo's 24/7 they showed the true JMM, forget the piss drinking , I am talking about when he was with his family and they were singing with the mariachi band, he let it FLY !!!!! LOL

Why is Khan even being mentioned? What has he done to deserve fighting JMM? And why is that a "big money" fight?
