"Dinamita" Marquez vs "The Blueprint" Maidana @147: Who wins?

[Doctor_Tenma]

Marquez, his commitment to his punches and variation will allow him to slow Maidana down in the early to mid rounds, after that Maidana gets dismantled. Maidana didn't want any part of Mayweather's short right uppercut to the midsection, he made sure to put his weight on top of Mayweather or wrestle to avoid that. In fact some may not have noticed but it was the short right uppercut to the midsection that prompt Maidana to use the knee, Mayweather was aiming for another one. What I'm saying here is, Marquez's body assault will be far more consistent and effective than Mayweather's. Juan is clearly a better combination puncher.

I think Maidana would make Marquez look his age and stop him from the mid to late rounds, but it wouldn't surprise me if it was an early stoppage.

key to beating maidana is fighting him off of you and thats what jmm does well.....broner and may weather don't throw that many combos, jmm does and he likes to exchange.....i think he beats maidana but gets dropped a couple of times

I don't think either guy gets Ko'd, they are both too proud to let that happen. This fight is a tough one to call. I give a slight edge to Maidana because of his relentlessness. Marcos has a similar forward offensive style that Marquez does well against but Maidana is very awkward to fight as well.

The thing that is hard to predict is Marquez. If he comes in motivated and ready to win it can be a war. If he sits back like he did against Bradley or Mayweather he gets beat.

More rounds are likely to be won by Maidana who wins a SD.

Marquez is still an elite fighter, even a this stage in his career. Matthysse, Provodnikov, Maidana, Rios, Khan, Peterson and Danny Garcia all get the business.

Funny how people saying Marquez will get KOd by Maidana or TKOd....
lmfao DUDES NEVER BEEN STOPPED!! Dropped yes but stopped nope!

As floyd would say it would be "a helluva fight"
Marquez might not like to lead and engage the action, but he sure as hell will bring thee action once you bring it to him. And Maidana will sure come forward. I think Marquez would win by decision, by setting up nice body shots which Mayweather did not do too much of in that fight.

Marquez all day.. I have the impression that Marquez is able to bring another KO if he goes inspired. In the center of the ring, Juan Manuel is much more brilliant than Maidana, and he barely goes to the ropes. He would do a much better performance than Mayweather.

war marquez!!! im all fired up now. I think the fact that Maidana can put him down with any shot, and the fact that no one wants to accept he can put together good combinations and move his head well will make it an interesting fight, it's hard to ever bet against marquez, but the same can be said to maidana to a certain extent.
