Earlier this year, Golden Boy Promotions was trying to match Juan Manuel Marquez in a fight with WBA 140-pound champion Amir Khan. Golden Boy wanted Marquez as the opponent for Khan's American/HBO debut in May. After some initial discussions, Marquez turned the fight down. He was later replaced by former champion Paul Malignaggi, who Khan stopped in eleven rounds.

Katsidis is no joke. He is a tough fight for Marquez maybe as tough a fight for him as Khan would be because he is a relentless pressure fighter and Marquez is getting old. Khan would box him but Marquez is a counter puncher and that is a style he is adapted to cope with. If you look at marques career you can't say he is a coward.
