He was getting hurt and his ass kicked.

Glad to hear it. Truth be told I really liked John back in the day, but boxing doesn't need protected guys like that who refuse to step up. Glad he got knocked off.

He was getting beat soundly.

This is exactly how I see it. I was a fan of John, and thought he beat Marquez in a close fight, but then he stopped taking challenging fights. We'll finally get some clarity in the featherweight division.

Is Chris John the Sven Ottke of his day?

LOL I like that thought. But I have to be fair to Chris John, he is/was a fantastic boxer.

BTW is this the Marciano curse striking again? He lost before he could get to 49-0
