Why is J.M. Marquez always getting a pass from fighting D fighters before PAC?!

[mysportsportal]

because everyone get's tune ups sometimes

[_original_]

margarito > ramos + fedchenko + sabaupan ...

I'm not sure that washed up, plaster less version of Margartio was better than Fedchenko to be honest.

Can you imagine if this site was around when guys like Robinson were fighting their "in-betweeners"

If fighters today were fighting every month, I wouldn't say a negative word if they were fighting their mothers in between big fights.

Had Pac took a fight like this before a 4th bout with JMM he would get lambasted by the critics.

The same people in this thread defending JMM for this would be crucifying Pac had he took on the same opponent.

Because Pac only fights PPV's now and has been for a couple of years.
If he took an inbetween for free on HBO... I can't really complain

He doesnt have to fight for free on HBO. He has 2 maybe 3 more fights before he calls it a career. Why waste time with low money tune ups when he has superstar status and a handfull of ppv caliber fighters he can face? JMM is a top pfp fighter and one of my favorite fighters of all time. He should be facing nothing but other pfp/top tier fighters as well.

I don´t think he is fighting Sabaupan, but it would be okay because nobody wants Márquez to be in a war just before Pac, except of course Roach and Pacteam.

Would you be ok with Pac being in a war right before a 4th fight with JMM?

This is a big problem among boxing fans IMO they would rather see a world class fighter fight 40+ yr old, out of shape, drug abusing shot-to-**** fighters than see them in with a young, strong, hungry fighter trying to make a name for himself.

Let the young talent come through and make a nice payday rather than these old men who have nothing left & won't even attempt to make a fight out of it.

marg was suspended and fought a guy thats not even on wikipedia then it was for a title?????? so u mean i he got suspended for cheating or trying to cheat then he comes back n fights a nobody and this gives him a shot a the title?????? that fight was pure trash!!!!!!!

only fight he won in his last 4 was a Ramos type of a bum and Margarito still couldn't put him to sleep before Manny fighting him at a catchweight for a vacant belt
