Comments Thread For: Marquez Says He Won't Be Provodnikov's Stepping Stone

he scared, he real scared

People ITT have some real reading comprehension skills. Basically the risk-reward factor is horrible if he faces Prov. Why would he face someone of Prov's skill level and status when he's done it all in the sport? His legacy is set in stone, this is what prize fighting entails.

How would you be a stepping stone unless you lose?

Yeah, he doesn't want any of that. I can't really blame him at this stage of his career, but it's obvious. Provodnikov is a huge risk.

What a freakin diva. You're capping off a pretty darn good career of boxing with these childish antics and people are going to remember you a coward whiner

I think people need to get over the fact that Pac got Ko'd and give Marquez his place in Boxing, stop hating on him soo much because it just shows how hurt you people are about Pac getting put to SLEEP!

[Augustane]

He really is just doing this all for legacy now. I don't blame him.

Marquez will be 41 this summer and he's one of the greats in Boxing history wether you like it or not. He fought every top fighter and was never stopped in his prime and if he were to get ko'd now it wouldn't really mean much..

Marquez knw Rulsan will whip his ass & will attack him all night... He also knws it will be very difficult to knock Rulsan out or hurt him that man can take a punch... Wouldnt b surprised if Rulsan stops him...

He doesnt want to be provos stepping stone????sounds to me like he doesnt think he could beat the siberian bull....its a smart move to avoid provo cuz marquez aint getting any younger and would probly get permanately damaged by provo..
