Marquez vs Ramos

[Howlin Mad Missy]

As much as I hate to agree with a fellow mod. I think CFH is right.

Ramos didnt fancy the job so sat it out IMO. No even completing 1 round won't do Marquez any real favours who if everyone hadnt noticed was getting tagged fairly easily against Ramos. It could be he has slowed up or he didnt see Ramos as a threat so took more risks.

I hope it's the latter for Marquez's sake.

I would hate to see Marquez stopped by Pacquiao.

I would be very surprised if there was any other outcome.

I honestly don't think it will be any more competitive than Pac - Morales III.

Marquez is well over the hill.

The unfortunate thing is..............i think your both right.

While Pacquiao has gotten better and smarter as a fighter, Marquez hasn't exactly looked much worse but he has aged (37) which affects all fighters.

Pacquiao has never looked stronger than what he does at welterweight imo, thats bad news for Marquez also.

I had this opinion when Marquez stepped into the Ring for the first time against "baby bull" damn that was a hell of a fight. Made me a big time Marquez even though I didn't like him much for not fighting Morales.

Yeah, completely pointless tune up fight. I can't think of a handy southpaw who wouldn't pose to much of a threat they could've used instead, I guess clearly there wasn't one. Hate to agree with the concencus about the rubber match between Marquez and Pacquiao, but I just don't see how it's going to end well for Marquez. I think Marquez and Morales are a much better matchup than Marquez and Pacquiao currently, which is a shame. Mind you, Marquez deserves the payday, and the chance to prove everyone wrong.
