JMM is a tremendous warrior who had incredible talent. He may have somewhat tarnished his rep slightly with his antics recently after the Bradley loss and refusing to fight Pac again but I compare him to RJJ in that respect. He has accomplished so much in his career, he can really do whatever he wants and I'll still only hold him accountable for what he did prior to the last Pac fight. I don't see him "falling off" like RJJ did after Tarver but even if he did, I would think no less of what he has accomplished.My boy Marquez has accomplished a whole lot in the sport. I will re watch all his masterful victories for years to come, or as long as were free in this country. He had many blood and guts fights. We can't say that about all fighters who are self-proclaimed the greatest. He is a master defensive counterpuncher, but will and does engage in battles. He doesn't duck and dodge on his bicycle all night. He's never quit and leaves it all in the ring. Where most sheeple would just accept a unjustified loss and move on, a loser. He is an unreasonable stubborn bastard that goes against the current. He has tenacity and grit. Look up those two words. That's what the forefathers of this country had when establishing it. Even though today it's complete tyranny. He stands firm on what he believes is right and will do anything it takes to succeed. No matter what anybody says. That's a man. That's what it takes to succeed in this ****hole world. 95% of the population is not willing to do that. It even shows in all the Marquez haters. They can't comprehend him being so determined and stubborn about going for, eventually, one bad ass knockout of one of the best fighters to ever live. That would have never happened if he just laid down, went into fetal position, accepted it and moved on. If it's too hard most people won't do it. Any negative comments this will surely prompt are quantity on this forum, not quality. They wont change my life or Marquez's legacy. Just had to get this off my chest. All I got to say is it's been great to be able to watch the great Manuel Marquez through the years. However, one thing is for sure; it's time to hang them up brother. Just try telling that to the face of a determined man.Comment

Juan Manuel Marquez vs. Manny Pacquiao I:
Juan Manuel Marquez gets knocked down three times in the first round and returns to his corner at the end of the round with blood dripping from his nose.
"Manny Pacquiao coming at Marquez like a typhoon across the Pacific." -Larry Merchant at the end of the 1st round
Juan Manuel Marquez vs. Manny Pacquiao IV:
Juan Manuel Marquez brutally knocks Manny Pacquiao out cold at the end of the 6th round and celebrates with blood dripping from his nose.
"So the tsunami that hit the Philippines is replicated here by the tsunami of Marquez's right hand." -Jim Lampley at the end of the 6th round
That is DESTINY. They robbed Juan Manuel Marquez three times, but they couldn't rob him of his DESTINY.

I have been a Marquez fan for many years and he is a proven great fighter. If there is something about him I don't like it is that if a close fight doesn't go his way he is a real cry baby and a sore loser. The Pacquiao fights he says were such robberies were actually pretty close fights that many people thought Pacquiao won even if more fans thought Marquez won. To hear Marquez tell it they were the robberies of the century. Then after Pacquiao gives him the rematches he wanted and the fight ended with him the KO winner he won't show Pacquiao the courtesy of a rematch that Pacquiao twice showed him. As for his fight with Bradley he again says this was a huge robbery when the vast majority of people who saw that fighter thought Bradley was a close but clear winner.Being a sore loser is my only complaint about Marquez. I think he is an all time great fighter and he is fighting amazingly well right now for a 40 year old.Comment

Green karma sent your way dude, this is a great post. Whether or not you're a fan of Juan Manuel Marquez you can't deny his greatness and ability to do things in the ring that others only dream of. Juan Manuel Marquez has given us great fights throughout his career and has always left everything in the ring, he deserves to retire with dignity and utmost respect from the fans and fellow fighters.My boy Marquez has accomplished a whole lot in the sport.
