I don't think he needs Marquez just yet. He needs at least one solid, world level opponent first to give him that experience, and also the inner confidence needed.

My guess is that if he beats his March opponent on the Pacquaio Floyd undercard and looks good he may well get one summer fight in before a big showdown with Marquez this time next year.

He could well go into that fight the bookies favourite.
I have been agreeing with Bilbo over Khan, I reckon that the KO was something he should not be solely judged on, I am not convinced it proves him Chiny. The Kid had a great work rate which alone can trouble a lot of people, and if he does fight JMM or Hatton down the line his style could be too much,I reckon that's why he is in the camp he's in, does have some things in common with Pac in terms of speed and volume of work.

Ignoring the fact he can be a cock sometimes then I like him for moving on and proving people wrong.
