      I don't think he should, I think JMM can still beat most at 140-147 personally it is all about STYLES and Match Ups

      Nacho knew all along that this was a bad match up for him it was Nacho that did not want this fight to begin!

      Trainer Nacho Beristain has no desire to see his fighter, four division world champion Juan Manuel Marquez (55-6-1, 40KOs), face WBO welterweight champion Timothy Bradley (29-0, 12KOs). Last June, Bradley captured the title with a controversial twelve round split decision victory over Manny Pacquiao. A few months later, on December 8th, Marquez knocked out Pacquiao in the sixth round.

        Yeah but that was before Bradley took all that punishment vs Ruslan. JMM is not beating most of those WW/JWWs, he's only looked good above 135 against a guy that started at flyweight. Even at 135 he made hard work of guys that couldn't beat a top 10 JWW

            We can confidently assume that Marquez, who is an accountant, figured out that boxing was bringing him in far more money that accounting would have-even when he was fighting average fighters for the 10 years before he won a (vacant) title.... Therefore he was "getting" and any "giving" was only incidental, the way a bricklayer gives his work to get his pay..
            A boxer gives moments to the sport and to fans. When great fighters are long gone, their fights still remain. Giving isn't just financial.

              Guarantee he doesn't retire with a loss like that. If he truly felt like he was shafted I don't think he pulls a Hagler.

                I think Marquez was thinking that Bradley would stand and trade a little more and Marquez went to straight forward instead of boxing or waiting for Bradley to make a mistake. Bradley moved more than Marquez thought he would and that was what won him the fight. This was a total Styles make Fights kind of fight and Marquez lost. But I don't think that means he is ready to retire.
