    He most know forbhis close loses to an ATG

    And hall of famer .
    But not an ATG.
    If he is an ATG so is tarver.

    Tarver and JMM are in the same light.
    Solid HoFers . Now know for finally beating the rivals
    As they declined.
    Actually, I'm pretty sure he's best known for knocking the fark out of an ATG, not losing closely to him.

    Tarver and Marquez aren't in the same league. Marquez is a HOF lock and second tier ATG. Tarver....it's arguable whether he's a HOFer at all.

    4 division titlist, 16 champions beaten, top five P4Per for a decade. Lots of good wins over excellent champions as well as beating a couple of ATGs. That's an ATG unless we're talking about the true ATGs like Robinson, Duran, Ali, Leonard etc. Obviously he's not in that league.

      Is this guy for real or what? Even in today's watered down era marquez is very easily an ATG and better than Morales and Barrera who get so much credit. So any of you consider Cotto an ATG yet Marquez is only better.

      Manny Pacquio (i say Juan is 2-1-1)
      Marco A Barrera (prime version)
      Joel Casamoayor (Ring Lightweight title)
      Juan Diaz

      Other solid wins:

      Orlando Salido (only got better)
      Michael Katsidis (good name to have on resume)

      He arguably slayed the dragon Chris John but the battle was in his dungeon so "the dungeon always wins" but i think Marquez slayed him.

      Most of your fav fiters wont be even able to point out so many elite names on their resumes. Also world champion in multiple classes and he beat some solid names in lower weights who werent stars but there to win and give it all. No not Likar Ramos

        Marquez doesn't get enough credit for his Lightweight reign (Diaz, Casa, and Kats). With the exception of Nate Campbell, he wiped that division out (knocking them all out I may add). Not a lot of fighters can say they had a division on lock today. Who besides Ward currently?

          He was the classic "no upside to facing him" hard luck kid for years. This is exactly why reading a fighters record on Boxrec is no indication, whatsoever, of how great they are/were. Hilarious thread.

            i would have to say being a 4 division world champion is enough to be rightfully crowned an ATG

                If Rustico Torrecampo and Chatchai Sasakul held 4 belts in 4 divisions to go along with their KO victories over Pac then yes they'd be ATG's as well.

                    If someone thinks Marquez is an ATG, he is either ******, Mexican or Pacquiao hater !
