I hate to disagree...but I gotta totally disagree...Marquez the more diverse & dynamic fighter.

Marquez seems to be able to adapt better than Barrera & Marco gearing up & down (IWO) won't be enough to match JMM's ability to switch up & counter. Changing speeds won't work if MAB runs the same up & down pace & game plan that he held against Juarez & JMM is a whole lot bigger of a challenge than a worn out Morales.

I still say that MAB hasn't seen anything like JMM.
I really don't agree. With class competition, the Pacquiao fight, I think it had more to do with Pacquiao not responding to adversity more then anything. I wouldn't say he spent himself in trying to get JMM out of there but I don't think he adjusted well after that second round. That's the reason people started saying Pacquiao was a one handed one dimensional fighter because once Marquez was able to avoid the left he basically just had a field day. I don't really think Marquez dictated the pace of the fight so much as he just adjusted and Pac let up. Barrera might not be the faster and he might not be more powerful then Marquez (in fact I think it's safe to say he just isn't) but he is the ring general in there imo. And he will control how the fight goes. And Morales was coming off a victory over Pacquiao in their third bout I would hardly call him washed up.

And while Barrera has seen no one like JMM, JMM hasn't seen anyone like Barrera either.

Those initials sure are fun to work with.
Yeah they are. JMM, Pac, EM and MAB and you've basically summed up 129.


Honestly...I feel you here...I think that if it goes the distance...no matter what Marquez does...Barrera wins it...& I hate the thought of that.
I'm not talking about robbery I'm saying that Barrera just wins to many rounds, no matter who you put him in with. I think it has to do with the changing gears thing again. While the opponent is adjusting on the fly, Barrera is winning the round. Of course it's not quite that simple but it boils down to about that. I've heard before that Barrera has a gameplan for all 12 rounds before he enters a fight knowing what he wants to do every round of the fight. How many fighters could actually pull that off? Barrera has to be one of them.




These two are actually proven boxers & also have KO power.

Huge difference here & for some reason...I think most fans are veering away from this match up.

Good points.
Yeah I mean I'm a fan of potential superstars taking a step up but this is ridiculous how little this fight has been talked about until this week. This is a BIG fight being made and it's kind of gotten the cold shoulder? Could you imagine how hot MAB would be if he won this fight? He could move up to number 2 in P4P imo.
