re-watch and see what you think. There is no doubt he will touch down imo.
Btw Barrera looked spiffing.
What do you mean by not especially athletic? You mentioned earlier Rafa's problem would be someone with fast hand's.... personaly I think Hozumi has a set of very fast hands. Although his chin versus marquez would be abit of a problem ;DQuote:

I honestly don't think it will be any more competitive than Pac - Morales III.
Marquez is well over the hill.
As much as I hate to agree with a fellow mod. I think CFH is right.

Pacquiao has never looked stronger than what he does at welterweight imo, thats bad news for Marquez also.
I had this opinion when Marquez stepped into the Ring for the first time against "baby bull" damn that was a hell of a fight. Made me a big time Marquez even though I didn't like him much for not fighting Morales.Quote:

Yeah, completely pointless tune up fight. I can't think of a handy southpaw who wouldn't pose to much of a threat they could've used instead, I guess clearly there wasn't one. Hate to agree with the concencus about the rubber match between Marquez and Pacquiao, but I just don't see how it's going to end well for Marquez. I think Marquez and Morales are a much better matchup than Marquez and Pacquiao currently, which is a shame. Mind you, Marquez deserves the payday, and the chance to prove everyone wrong.
Juan Manuel Marquez vs Erik Morales after the Pacquiao fight to complete the Big 4 bouts.
