Cat quick WBA Featherweight Champion Chris John has yet again defeated another challenger to his throne, this time the well respected Mexican former double titlist Juan Manuel Marquez as the two met on the island of Borneo in Indonesia last night. It wasn't as one sided as his defense against Derrick Gainer a year ago but John handily retained his belt on all three ringside judges' cards by keeping his accomplished Mexican opponent at the end of his punches and making Marquez pay for each incursion into the Indonesian's territory. With the victory, John must now be considered the top featherweight in the world with only WBO kingpin Scott Harrison in a position to dispute that claim.
