Finally, the Mrs has relented and I have my Skylife box and so after a horrifying break from live boxing of around 6 MONTHS I finally can watch my live boxing!!! This is a fight I could not afford to pass me by!

Im a big Barrera fan but can easily see how this could be touted as a pick 'em. Marquez does seem to be evolving his style and seems to come forward more. Barrera has boxed within himself in 2 (IMO) concise victories over Juarez. It all for me depends on how and what each of these two talented fighters is going to bring to the table come fight time. Who gets the strategy right on the night? Get it wrong and it will be costly. Questions have been asked about Barrera's tank. I like to think he has a couple of big fights left in him, this being one of them. Of course, I could be wrong. Marquez is the same age as Barrera but of course hasn been in as many warsas MAB...

Im picking Barrera for a decision victory. How close I couldnt dare to say....
