    Where to rank JMM all-time if...

    Let's say Marquez never ends up fighting Pacquiao for a 4th time, but fights about 5-6 more times, and retiring in late 2013 or early 2014, at the age of 40.

    If Marquez were to clearly decision or KO/TKO the following fighters, where do you rank him in the ATG list?:

    Timothy Bradley @ 147
    Miguel Cotto @ 147 (assuming IF Cotto can safely go down to 147 again)
    Adrien Broner @ catchweight 137? (Broner mentioned a catchweight possibility if he were to fight Marquez)
    Danny Garcia @ 140
    Amir Khan @ 140
    Lamont Peterson @ 140

    If he clearly beat all those fighters, at this point in his career, he'd be the most accomplished active fighter. So wherever you put Pacquiao and Mayweather, put Marquez above that.

      top 15-25 ATG specially because he's doing it @ 40

      but i'll be satisfied if he beats Garcia for the ring belt @ 140 and then retires.


      inb4 he's only fighting bums now

        If he beat all of them convincingly he would go down as one of the greatest ever. Top 10 and be more accomplished than Pac/Mayweather combined.

          It's freaking weird to see Marquez with that much hair like in your sig.

            Good fighters. Good wins.

            Adrien Broner @ catchweight 137? (Broner mentioned a catchweight possibility if he were to fight Marquez)
            Danny Garcia @ 140
            These guys are unproven.

            Amir Khan @ 140
            *Yawn* His 15 minutes are up.

            Lamont Peterson @ 140
            *Yawn* Decent win but not much else.

            What would the last four fights prove? That Marquez kicks a lot more ass than is reasonable?

            Who didn't know that already?

              Timothy Bradley @ 147 -- Good win
              Miguel Cotto @ 147 -- No credit. Miguel hasn't fought there since 09. 154 or bust
              Adrien Broner @ 140 -- Decent win, unproven but its good to beat the top prospects
              Danny Garcia @ 140 -- Great win, Danny's the man to beat @ 140
              Amir Khan @ 140 -- Not a good win, Khan's time @ 140 has finished. 147 or bust
              Lamont Peterson @ 140 -- Can't comment until Peterson gets good wins post PED
              Matthyse -- Great win, him and Danny are the top dogs @ 140.

                  Your asking too much outta Marquez with that list. Kinda silly to ask, If this fighter beat these folks where would you rank them. Obviously Marquez would be top on any list IF this scenario did happen but at this point Marquez only wants Pacman and Pacman only..
