    I don't think you can call it an upset if Marquez wins. He's a sure HOF and proven warrior.

        I agree, itt shouldn't be considered an upset, but the bookies have Marquez at +250.. That's ridiculous odds. I closed my betting account a few months ago, wish i had it back. Also, I'm reading a lot of the young lion to blast the shopworn vet.

          I think if it goes beyond 7 rounds, Juanma wins because of his youth.

          Marquez should stop him by the 7th or his age and stamina might affect him. Hopefully they know this.

            Juanma is the one who's only gone the distance 10+ rds twice. In one of which, he was out on his feet. IMO the distance favors Marquez. Lopez spends a lot of energy with that power punching. Those guns use up a lot of ammo.

              Marquez has been KO'd 3 times

              once in the 2nd

              once in the 3rd

              and Vasquez KO'd him in the 6th.

              You don't think Juanma knows this? And will test his chin, before the 6th round?

                Marquez has his hands full. All things being equal, I'd pick him to KO Lopez. But he's older, past his prime and smaller. It will take a Herculean effort to pull this off. But if anyone can, it's him. Especially if he takes Lopez into deep waters, where he'll drown him.

                  Yup and I agree that's Juanma's best bet, but considering how well known Juanma is for his power. I'd be shocked if Nacho's game plan consists of trading in the middle of the ring. I expect him to be particularly weary of Juanma's power. Either way, this will probably be first runner up for FOTY as soon as it goes down. Likely to be replaced by another fight before november is over.

                    Everybody knows Juanma has power, and they still end up KO'd. lol
                    Gracia KO'd Marquez with one punch, an overhand right. And Marquez couldnt get up after that shot, he tried but kneeled down.
