Comments Thread For: Marquez To Keep Close Eye on Bradley vs. Rios

[techliam]

It's called Top Rank BS.

Bradley vs. Vargas for the vacant WBO title? Then he gets to defend it against Rios and Marquez? Every WBO fight is a voluntary. Just call the WBO title holder the Top Rank champion.

Yup

It seems also that Haymon has the WBA's pocket lined up too. How Khabib rose 5 rankings out of nowhere (to be eligible for the WBA title fight) during discussions for the fight is beyond su****ious.

The WBC have been corrupt for so long, and so badly that noone even cares anymore. Literally any fighter who commands big purses gets a ton of leniency.

The WBC/WBA/WBO are all helplessly corrupt

I'm more lenient towards the IBF as they strictly follow their rules, no promoter seems to be given priority in any IBF rankings.

No, I completely understand that it's favouritism for sure and I'm not defending it.

Now tell me where I'm wrong in where I said that all 4 organizations have allowed voluntary defenses like this.

Yea, you're right, good point.

[aboutfkntime]

Dont blanket hate on promotional companies, that just weird and shows how bias one is.

Like Hayom fighters havent won vacant belt they dont deserve lol. How convient you leave that out.

The Top Rank model suxx.

Fragmentation and exploitation, all so that TR can increase their profit margin.

All sanctioning bodies are messed up in their own way.

WBO- strips you if you don't fight but doesn't give mandos.

IBF- lets cheat, losers and psychos hold titles and has the worst ranking system of the big 4( Brook vs Dan... Come on) but forces mando fights to a detrimental degree if I might say.

WBC- worships money but will let other champs be mandos( Kovalev and GGG maybe Khan should of tried that tactic) and is working with VADA so kudos

WBA-three world champs per weight class and worships money

By the way when are the WBA and WBC gonna vacate Floyds titles. The ring already did... Let Thurman and Lara be champs already.

Wouldn't fight Brook. Was called out by Porter when he had the belt, but said no to Porter. Wouldn't extend one rematch to Manny for a shot at Pac's title when he had it, after Manny extended 4 fights to JMM. Wouldn't fight Provodnikov at 140 or 147, when he held the 140 title. He's hoping Bradley beats Rios cause he wants a shot with a guy he thinks can't hit hard enough to hurt him. If Rios would beat Bradley (and he won't) Marquez would never fight Rios for the belt and would just retire.

I have to chime in everytime someone says this
(The ******est thing said on this board)

Manny didn't "give" or "extend" rematches to Jmm. He never beat him without controversy. He never beat him without debate. Every fight was close and debatable. The public flocked to the fight because they knew that. Manny knew that. When he went to cherry pick Marquez he got flattened. So stop.

Marquez and Bradley is a viable option because it was close. Besides the fight with Floyd--Marquez has never been blown out of a fight (and has never been stopped).

I think JMM should retire. If he has anything in the tank left; he beats Rios, and Bradley is the luckiest guy in boxing. Somehow he always catches a break. His last fight should have been a no contest. He got a gift against manny, he was continually saved against Ruslan, and the Chaves fight was suspect


JMm was ducked by the top tier guys when he was coming up. And he's put in work and can pick and choose who his last fight will be.

Maybe he will do a Floyd move and fight the guy ranked 16th in the division

Marquez was a fan favorite until he gave Pacquiao.some of that Bill Cosby potion. Take your time,Marquez, but you wont be fighting Rios cause he'll get his brains beat in to mush as he can only hang with C level fighters. Only here can Rios get more respect than Marquez, you people.

[BOXEO _]

Marquez is too old to be fighting welterweights, Rios and Bradley both beat him.
