WHAT IF... Juan manuel marquez vs Diego Corrales at 130

[DANGER13]

lets say, when Chico was at 130, and Marquez moved up to meet him. wat do yall think happens? is marquez slick enogh to outbox CHICO and stay away from his power, or will Diego take his head off... u think marquez would be able to hurt him? and CHICO would most likely be drained at this weight...

Marquez got caught plenty of times by Pacquiao, and I'm not talking about the first round. I'm talking about rounds 7-10. Watch Pacquiao bounce his head all over the place with straight left hands. Gainer tried to stick and move against Corrales, and he got caught. Tough to say because Corrales is better at 135, but I never count Corrales out no matter what. Corrales by KO in about 6-7 rounds.

despite tha outcome of the fight, dont u think it would be a great matchup/fight?
damn boxing is f'ing up! theres so much talent, yet matches arent made. i know this fight couldnt have happened, cuz CHICO was at 130 years ago, while marquez has never been there, but it would be an interesting matchup. n CHICO doesnt use as much head movement as PAc, my prediction would be it would go the distance. Marquez would be outboxing him, but Corrales floors him and comes close to knocking him out, making it a close, tough decision.

I don't see Corrales ko'ing Marquez either. Marquez wouldn't quite as Freitas did, but like Freitas Marquez would outbox Corrales badly. Would be very interesting if at all Corrales can catch Marquez. Its a style toss up on who can win.

What is interesting is that Corrales being a boxer, imo didn't box Corrales as cleanly as Freitas outboxed Corrales.

this fight is a toss up really. Both guys can somewhat crack although Corrales is the heavier hitter. Both guys can get floored but when it comes down to fight I think Corrales may pull it off. If JMM chooses to box and counter he could win. If Corrales closes the distance and makes it a fight he could win too.

marquez aint a slugger really, he'll go and stick to his gameplan. hes a very diciplined fighter, he'll counter punch CHICO. i say, marquez wins. he could catch corrales and floor him, but if cHICO catches marquez, he'll more then likely finish him.

Dude you were saying "when Chico was at 130" then later on you said "Chico would most likely be drained at this weight", how could that happen?

Oh okay I got it now.

It's going to be a tall order for JMM to beat Chico.

Style wise Chico is not an all out come forward fighter and JMM is a counter fighter this could be one hell of a boring fight with Chico winning by points or K.O.

While Chico loves to fight inside he can also fight from the outside if needed to, and that having said, JMM will have so much difficulty counter punching a 6 foot 1 opponent with a very big reach advantage. That not to mention Chico's power advantage.
