Comments Thread For: Juan Manuel Marquez-David Diaz on July 2 in Las Vegas?

[rasdun]

fighting a slow and loser david diaz at 135...why not test yourself at 140 and fight zab judah and accustom yourself at higher weight....it only shows that Marquez is coward in fighting fighters at higher weight....He only wants Pacman for last and bigger retirement payday....what a shame.....

Marquez is a coward. LOL. B/c he doesn't want to risk a 5-8 million payday by fighting Zab for a mil. That's smart business. I would do the same thing. At least he is taking a tuneup fight. If he only cared about the money, he's just wait till Oct or Nov, and fight Pac; but he's taking a fight to shake off rust so he's not out of the ring a year.

Also, to criticize his recent run is absurd. B/f his fight w/ Katsidis, Katsidis was the ring #1 contender, coming off wins against escobedo and Mitchell. Is he a great fighter - no. But to criticize MArquez for the fight is ridiculous

Linares, Vazquez, Soto, Rios, Guerrero...so many guys to aim for, more credible than David Diaz. That's only at LW too, even Judah would be a much better option than David Diaz.

Marquez deserves a tune up fight, this man hasnt taken an easy fight in YEARS and hes almost 40.

Juan Diaz II, Katsidis, those looked like tune ups.

Mexican Warrior??

Once again Marquez proves he's a coward, he turned down fights with Khan , Maidana, Bradley, Berto and now Judah and Guerrero, Whats so crazy about this is the promoters have tried to make all these fights that JMM has turned down, normally when promoters set up a fight it goes through, this is rare , Marquez is the biggest coward in boxing right not and its ridiculous they have him ranked in the P4P top 10

Well if he can't get Zab Judah then why not?!.

Get outta here, those were damn hard fights... if you dont understand what this man has done for the sport and cant respect him get out of this thread.

He deserves this fight. Period.

List me the resumes of ANY other current lightweight. These boys are 10 years younger and what excuse do they have?

How could anyone have hate towards JMM, the man is a warrior.

made a secound account just to hate.... shameful.

Diaz II, Katsidis, and possibly now David Diaz. I'm telling you, Marquez's recent run isn't impressive.

Diaz 2 was a FOTY follow up. Katsidis was the Mando. What are you *****ing about again?

Much more credible opponents out there, those fights were useless. I don't hate Marquez either...
