It would be great because it would be the first time he's fought a top junior welterweight, or welterweight, not named Pacquiao or Mayweather. I just think this is all a smokescreen because Marquez has no other fight close to as lucrative out there and he won't face another top welterweight. I recall saying before Pacquiao-Marquez III, when people were deriding Pacquiao's choice of opponent in Marquez, that Marquez just has Pacquiao's number. The fourth fight proved it. I remained unconvinced that Marquez would dominate other top junior welterweights/welterweights, and until we see him against one, we'll never know.
