Comments Thread For: Juan Manuel Marquez Ponders Whether To Fight Again

[FloydvsPac]

Like I said before.. Marquez used to be one of my favs!!! till he took on Herrera the steroid giver.. then all of a sudden he looks like he's on steroids and looks 3x bigger than pacquiao in their 4th fight.. then looks even bigger with Bradley..
LETS NO FORGET THE ACNE ALL OVER HIS BODY.. AND LETS NOT FORGET HOW HE WAS ARGUING WITH BRADLEY OVER WHO HE WANTED TO USE FOR DRUG TESTING... LET'S NOT FORGET HOW BRADLEY WANTED ALL RANDOM DRUG TESTING FROM BOTH COMPANIES (VADA.. ETC..) AND MARQUEZ STRAIGHT OUT REFUSED!!!!

And yes I USED to be a huge fan of marquez, being that I'm Mexican.. One of my favorite fights of his was Marquez vs. Baby bull Diaz.. that looked like the normal marquez.

When he fought Pacquiao the fourth time. I really didn't care who won because I Liked both fighters.. but when he started to look all steroided out during camp.. I mean c'mon if you wanna be blind, be blind.. but you just can't look 3x bigger than your opponent in 6-8 weeks all of a sudden. and then all of a sudden get acne at 41 even though you never had acne in 99% of your career.. then you get the fans demanding all the blood tests and you say "naw I think i'll retire".. RETIRE YOU CHEATER... AND GO AWAY !!!! that's how I see it. Good Day.

AGREED. Marquez just needs to go away. The boxing media and community know full well what he's done. He should just retire and be thankful that he never got caught.

I hope he retires. he has nothing left to prove and he will go out as a legend! That KO he had against Pacquiao was epic and whether you hate him or not, that image of Pac lying on the canvas unconcious will be one of the first things you think of when Marquez' name comes up. WAR MARQUEZ!!!

LMAO...won't even admit JMM is su****ious. Nice try lol

For once I'd like to hear a JMM fan say..."Hey, he's probably guilty of PED's, but I don't give a f&^k. I'm just happy he won!" Then it's done and over with. But none of these haters have the intelligence or the humility. Ignorant comments like yours just keep pointing to the elephant in the room and show how insecure you are. Too afraid to MAN UP??

Look son, it's like this:

You can make threads and threads and more threads filled with hypocritical accusations.

You can pile nothing on nothing and hope it adds up to something.

You can have circle jerks with other P@ctards and with your alts when you're solo and then all pat each other on the back over how smart you all are.

But in the end, what do you have?

Unsubstantiated speculation.

What do I have?

Pacquiao asleep, face down in a puddle of spit.

I win.

I still think PAC-JMM 2 was their best fight. Since both of them were closest to their primes and their best weight division.

And the speed they were going at in their 2nd fight doesn't compare to PAC-JMM 3 and 4. They were fast, and non stop back and forth action. I still think this is the fight that best highlights their matchup against one another.
PAC gets the knockdown but JMM comes back to counterpunch beautifully and win rounds. I had it PAC winning by one point only due to the knockdown. The rounds were very close and the knockdown IMO was the difference.

PAC-JMM 3 was more of a tactical chess match of somewhat aging HOF boxers.
(I had it a draw)

PAC-JMM 4 was Arum milking this matchup for $ when they're both past prime.

Some would say, I'm making excuses ... but I'm just telling like it is. PAC hasn't been quite the same since the Margarito fight.

Go watch how fast these guys were in 2008, and try and debate me.

[Strategic1]

In fact, PAC took a lot of damage against Clottey and Margarito in March and November 2010.

Although PAC dominated the fights. Clottey landed few, but the few he landed were very hard clean punches. Same thing with Margarito[ body shots.

After these fights, PAC slowed down a bit but was still and still is a world class top boxer at 147.

In my personal opinion, he just slowed enough to be timed more. JMM always had PAC's timing down... but in the 3rd and 4th ... his punches were more clean and flush.

PEDs wont help him against Porter assuming hes on them. I would call it a career.

[Strategic1]

If he turned down Provodnikov because "he does nothing for me"...and instead decides to face Alvarado... then

It's time to go away. go away JMM.

He did the same thing avoiding Amir Khan and Brandon Rios a few years back. JMM considered them as threats and he wanted to minimize risk while on his quest for PAC fights.

Losing to Khan and/or Rios at the time would've killed his chances of getting the fight he wanted. Instead, he fought fringe fighters like Fedchenko and Likar Ramos.

[lefthook2daliva]

If he turned down...blah blah....peds...hurr...ducker...Khan....Rios...blah blah...

Yeah yeah...

Yea, you have no answer for me: ducking Provodnikov and giving a crap reason... to turn around and face Alvarado.

I don't see how anyone can defend that even JMM supporters. But yeah, that's how it goes with fans like you.

KTFO6 and then immediately lose to Tim Bradley the next fight. The worse was the whining but that's another story.

Any boxer that whines to that extent, and is delusional in saying he got robbed 6 times has personality but even moreso character issues. (I didn't even mention him drinking his urine) That's why there are many who suspect him of being a PED cheat. Instead of manning up and taking loses like a MAN. He lost partly because of his style and has himself to blame.
