As for Marquez' chin Garcia stopped him in 2 rounds in about his 24th fight! He must off had some experience by then! It also looked to me like he was ready to throw it in against Austin until he landed that big shot in the 8th. I'm not taking anything away from Marquez just saying his chin isn't granite.

As for Darchinyans style not working against a world class opponent thats not fair. A lot of good fighters tried to beat Pacheco but til this day Vic is the only one to do it. I also feel the weight would be advantageous to Marquez but he has only fought as high as feather so I don't see it causing Vic to many problems as he has fought at Jr. Feather before.

His power & southpaw stance would be key factors towards a victory.
Funny you mention that fight, I was talking to a guy ringside on Sat. about that fight.....
That fight was fought on a Sun. afternoon in a 'Swap Meet' (Don't know if you know what a 'swap meet' is but it's like people set up their own little shops/stores and sell different things these are usually held in 'Drive In's )
Anyway he took the fight on 2 weeks notice.... Not an excuse by any means but IMO in some ways it explains how the loss came about.
In the end it's still in his record I personally just don't put tooo much emphasis on it...
Take his 1st loss, I mean who in their right state of mind decides to fight an Ex-World Champ. who single handedly aniahlated almost all of Asias best lower weight fighters at that time, for their 1st fight? WTF?
IMO it was a stupid thing to do but S***! I'm sure he learned his lesson....

About Vic I'll be honest credit to him for beating Pacheco but as honest as I can be I was never impressed with Pacheco....
Pachecos best opponent was Montiel a well seasoned fighter with history behind him and some World Class skills....
I take nothing from Vic I'm a fan cause like you I like that hes willing to trade and fight thats good by me and I would fwocken love him IF he can get Pongsaklek "I will ONLY fight people literally in my back yard and they need to have a total of 10 fights no more in order to fight me" Wongjonkam
to fight him and then kick his mutha f*cken WBC piece of sh*t belt a**....
Sweet bro, I think Vic has to move up though no one at 112 wants to fight him! I also would love him to fight Wonjongkam & win that Ring championship but it ain't happening.

As for Pacheco he was to inactive for my liking but fought some good dudes: Ruiz, Kelly, Montiel, Makepula & Pena. IMO he beat Gonzalez next as well!

I take nothing away from Marquez cause he's one of those guys who always fights top competition, I think out of his last 12 opponents 11 have been ranked in the Rings top 10. But theres still a question mark on the chin for me!
