Gomez spoke in hypothetical tones about how big a fight between Marquez and Khan would be in the United Kingdom.
"He would love to fight Juan Manuel," Gomez said of Khan. "He's willing to fight anybody else. He said Bradley, also. But he's a businessman. He knows that probably Juan Manuel would be more meaningful. It would be more money. Juan Manuel's a legend. In England, he (Khan) thinks that it would be huge.
"In the UK, Juan Manuel is well known, just like (Marco Antonio) Barrera was. And he (Khan) feels that Bradley, even though he may be getting a lot of publicity out here, it might not mean as much in the UK."
What Gomez said is nonsense, the boxing fans in the UK don't want to see Khon fight Marquez, they want to see Khon face Bradley or a top lightwelter, they want top see khon fight someone his own size, where Khon does not have all the advantages as per usual, Bradley vs Khon would be a sell out in the UK, they know Khon's days are numbered, so GBP are making as much money as can before Khon gets beat,

Originally posted by Sugar Q View PostDoesn't make sense for Marquez to say Manny is faster than Floyd because he was able to time Manny but unable to get anywhere near Floyd. He could see Manny's punches coming but couldn't see Floyd's. Defense has nothing to do with seeing a fighters offense and timing it. Manny may be as explosive but Floyd maintains his speed throughout while Manny tends to get sloppy and slower as the fight goes on.

Originally posted by MidBoss View PostYou don't time Floyd's punches. He times yours.. But that doesn't mean he's faster than Manny. That's just how he fights and it's what he's good at. I do think Manny is faster, also considering that Marquez was slower imo fighting at the weight he fought Mayweather.
Excuses, excuses. Marquez got tired of getting popped all night. Those punches were cat quick coming from Floyd. As a former fighter myself I can tell you right now Manny gets predictable in there but Floyd never does. Manny get's very sloppy as the fight progresses even though he's still quick he's not accurate quick and the accurate quick, properly timed punches will get there first every time. Manny tends to leap in with his shots, he leaps quick but Marquez was able to time those leaps and Manny's movement as the fight progressed but he never was able to time Floyd so I say again Floyd is not 41-0 for no reason. Dude is fast, accurate and a very gifted punch selector. If he ever get's in there with Manny you will see the difference immediately. Floyd will chew his ass up and spit him out quite easily. If Arum and Team Pac are reluctant to face m\Marquez do you idiots really think he wants to get in there with Floyd.Last edited by Sugar Q; 08-05-2010, 10:53 AM.
