Comments Thread For: Arum: Let Marquez Fight Berto, Then Push For Pacquiao

[greggyboy]

Not sure a legitimate fight between these two is possible, especially as they seem to want Margarito to fight at a catch weight.

Of course it would be logical at 140lb as we're still told by Freddie Roach that is mannys' natual weight but are we gonna see that-are we ****!

[Russian Crushin]

Cotto was as live as it gets? lol The guy is a soft bag of pulp. Hatton got worked over by Collazo for crying out loud. Clottey was tougher than both of those guys combined.

That Clottey fight was Manny's most impressive fight since moving up. He had Clottey scared and guarded up. To do that to a guy as tough as Clottey is beyond amazing, given where Manny has previously fought at. He even gave Clottey elvis-legs at one point in that fight.

But Manny's skills? lol They're pretty basic. Come forward and move to the side. Marquez just eats that kind of style up easily. It plays right into Marquez's strengths.

Manny is tailor made for a boxer/boxer puncher.

Dude lets not start getting ****** not, Cotto went straight at him for the first 6 rounds, he wasnt like Mosley in the Floyd fight.

And Basic skills? ill take that as a joke.

The Problem i have with Marquez is not that hes not the Marquez he used to be. He is obviously aged, and showed he has no business at 147.

this is a joke right? marquez cant and wont get past khan, alexander, or bradley. berto would murder marquez

marquez doesnt belong above 140, hes a career lightweight and a good one at that albeit he drinks piss so hes not the brightest bulb inthe bunch

He wasn't like Mosley in the Floyd fight only because Manny isn't as strong as Floyd. Cotto just took a slow one sided ass beating in his fight with Manny. Slow death. If that was Mayweather, Cotto would have went down sooner and probably more decisive.

Take it as you want. Manny's style can be exploited, the only thing that makes it hard to do is his stamina. He can keep that pace up for the entire fight.

Everybodies style can be exploited.

I have NO idea what that means at all. WTF were you thinking when you wrote that Paragraph, honestly?

lol Sorry, I'll try to dumb it down for you.

You said Cotto wasn't like Mosley in the Floyd fight, that's because Floyd is stronger than Manny. Floyd is strong enough to take you completely out of a fight. If Floyd fought Cotto that night, Cotto would have been takin out of the fight far more cleaner and quicker, more decisively.

It really is hilarious how some people back up their arguments by mentioning that the man drinks piss AHHAHAA

Just like Floyd-Hatton and Pac-Hatton right?

Since when has Floyd even done that to any fighter? Couldnt do it to Marquez, so what on earth makes you think he would have taken Floyd out quicker?

Obviously this was a Pac/Marquez convo that for some reason now includes Floyd

[Prime 407]

Marquez has been declining alot recently as we've all seen. Pac is in his prime right now and on a roll, there's just no way Marquez even comes close to stopping the Pac train. At 147lb's Pac destroys Marquez in 4 rounds.

true. just like floyd took hatton out in less than two rounds. oops.
