Comments Thread For: Rafael Marquez: I'll Fight Juanma in October/November

[prsi]

even without the injury he's still too old and had too many wars,nobody can argue about that,i for one won't look at it as a big victory for lopez

I still believe Marquez has some fight in him and as an experience fighter can take advantage of some of JuanMa's flaws.

At least it isn't cancelled. People here are sleeping on Marquez if Juanma comes with his sloppy form, Marquez is going to knock him out. In his latest fights he has been extremely sloppy throwing wild punches that don't land and getting hit when he doesn't need to.

Exactly.
True that Marquez is 35 and has had several wars, but lets not forget that for the past 5 years he has fought only 44 rounds which is practically less than 4 fights so after he turned 30 he has not fought as much to consider him finished. The average of rounds per fight since nov/2005 is a little over 6. That's not bad!!!! true that some of those rounds, as brutal as they were, might count for 3 but he has had plenty of time to recover.

funny how some people in here are looking forward to juanma knocking out marquez, they are excited about him beating an old beat up fighter,they will want to call him the best featherweight,pound for pound,,lol,that makes me laugh,,unbelievable

I wouldn't consider him the best featherweight much less P4P, but if he does win, I would consider it a good victory to his resume as i still consider that Rafa, even at this age, is equally or more dangerous then Salido, Rojas, De Leon, Luevano and probably as dangerous as Chris John

It is easy to see Juama as the favorite with his youth and real power. But Marquez is a seasoned veteran that is very accurate and can punch. There is no telling how much he has left in his tank. Juama has a leaky defense and can be hit alot this fight is more even than most ppl would think

I like Marque in an upset by TKO!
