And Marquez fought way better opponents when he was at the stage Juan Ma is right now. You can't even find hardly any Mtwagas or Lontiochis on his resume after he had twenty fights or more.

Yeah maybe, but still doesnt stop juanma tko in rafa

Marquez is a great fighter & a proven warrior...But comparing the 2 fighters at the stage Juanma is now(29 fights)----> Marquez at 29 fights, well his 1st 27 fights were against mostly TOMATO CANS & guys who's records weren't all that, but NOW are TOMATO CANS!! & Marquez had already been KO'd 3 times!!! His ONLY known fighter in his 1st 28 fights was Mark "Too Sharp" Johnson(Who was a great fighter) & was in his 28th fight & he beat Johnson by split decision in 10(Johnson had 2 points taken away in that fight & 1 judge gave it to Marquez by 1 point) They did have an IMMEDIATE rematch & Marquez won by TKO in 8!!! Marquez won his 1st world title in his 32nd fight against Tim Austin..

Juanma at this stage---> In 29 fights has won 2 world titles & has beaten fighters like Daniel Ponce De Leon, Gerry Peņalosa, Steven Luevano & Bernabe Concepcion & NOW he's gonna face Marquez...So even thou Juanma has also fought the Lontchi's & MtaGwa's & Figueroa's, at THIS STAGE(like u said) Juanma is undefeated & has face BETTER opposition than Marquez!!!

REMEMBER, I'M REFERRING TO WHAT U SAID, AT THIS STAGE OF JUANMA'S CAREER WHICH IS AT 29 FIGHTS IN COMPARISON TO MARQUEZ AT 29 FIGHTS!!! Now comparing Marquez whole career(especially after facing Johnson) THAT'S ANOTHER STORY!!!

lopez does not have a suspect chin he was draining himself for the mtawga and still won almost every round and went toe to toe and the bernabe fight he was not hurt just got caught off balanced when attacking marquez will get ktfo badly and mexicans will look for any excuse THE TRUTH IS MARQUEZ BEAT VASQUEZ THATS IT LIKE THE AUTHOR SAID THEY WERE SCARED TO FIGHT OTHER OPP AND JUST FELT COMFORTABLE FIGHTING EACHOTHER WETHER MARQUEZ WAS IN HIS PRIME OR DOWN HILL HE WOULD LOSE TO LOPEZ THE BIGGEST PUNCHER IN THE DIVISION WITH SPEED A CHIN AND IS NATURALLY A BIGGER GUY HE WILL BULLY MARQUEZ ALL THREW THE FIGHT IT WILL END LESS THAN 8 ROUNDS AND I WONT BE SURPRISED IF LOPEZ KO HIM IN 47 SECONDS OF THE FIRST ROUND LIKE HE DID TO PONCE LOPEZ IS THE REAL MEXICUTIONER

Read the article again. They weren't scared to fight others you silly goose.

They should only fight each other at this stage of their careers. That's not a fellow Mexican making an excuse.... that is the opinion of many. Juanma can stop making excuses and fight Juan manuel marquez(an original feather) next. JMM moved up 2 divisions in one fight to fight the world's bext in Mayweather. Juanma won't do it. But that fight hasn't even dawned on you because of your insecurity in your fighters. ***That fight hasn't even begun to dawn on you because PR's only look for fights against Mexs that they feel they can win. They don't look for the fights agianst the best Mexicans in which they can actually prove they are better.***Tsk.

He's fighting in December so that excuse doesn't wash.

Umm, Rafa not fighting John is not an excuse silly. rafa just got to the feather division. Juanma can stop making excuses and fight Juan Manuel marquez after he beats Rafa's old ass. JMM(an original feather) moved up 2 divisions in one fight to fight Mayweather who's the world's best. Juanma can do the same. He won't. That fight doesn't even begin to enter his mind or yours or any PR because you only want to fight mexs that you feel you can beat. Don't make excuses.
