Saul Alvarez is a 20 year old kid. A fight with Marquez would be a huge ask and he should get massive respect if he took and won it.

Just because Floyd beat Marquez doesn't mean he's a gimme fight for anyone else at welter.
one fighter started at featherweight and bloated at welter
the other started at welter and could just might be a middleweight. Dude the experience factor might not even be at play when Saul lands a flush shot.
So what? Marquez was in contention for p4p number 1 fighter in the world a year ago. Alvarez is 20 years old!

What do you expect, for 20 year old kids to be fighting the p4p number 1 fighter every fight?

People go up the weight classes all the time now. Manny has come up from lower than Marquez and smashed Margarito who is bigger than Saul. AND he got criticised for it!

If Saul beats Marquez that would be huge. It's great that he's thinking so big already.

Again I say to you, 20. Twenty years old! How many 20 year olds fight the likes of Marquez?
