Donaire: Marquez a Bit Too Small For 140 or 147

cangryman · 10-08-2011, 06:27 PM

“I think that fight can end around six and eight [rounds] if Pacquiao can land his big shots,” Donaire told ***********.com in an exclusive interview yesterday.*

Donaire, one of the most cerebral fighters in boxing, attributed the prediction to the evolved discrepancy in size between the fighters.

“I know that Pacquiao has a lot of power, and you don’t really want to underestimate the capability of Marquez, but from his power and from this weight class, I think Marquez is a bit too small for 140 [or] 147 [pounds],” Donaire said.

While Pacquiao’s body has grown past 140 pounds, going 5-0 with two knockouts over the last three years in that department, Marquez didn’t fare as well in his lone appearance above 135 pounds, a lopsided unanimous decision loss to Floyd Mayweather in 2009.

“[Marquez] was good and that probably his biggest weight would be 135, but being at 140 [or] 147 is just too small for a full-grown guy like Pacquiao, who’s now full-grown at 140 [or] 147,” Donaire added.* “Like I said, Marquez always has an ace in his pocket, [and] you never know how a fight goes, but from my perspective, I think he’s just too small for that weight class.”

The rest of the interview with Donaire covers a variety of topics, from his upcoming fight against Omar Narvaez to a future road that could include Jorge Arce, Toshiaki Nishioka, and Yuriorkis Gamboa.* Check out ***********.com later this weekend to read it in its entirety.

So far donaire is probably right, if marquez loses history will view upon him as succesfull till 135.

Of course Donaire is right. Pac is a legitimate WW, or at least a legitimate JWW. JMM isn't even a real LW. He's smaller than everyone he faces at 135. Pac ices JMM this time around.

Donaire is totally on point in this one.

Oh look who is talking, it's runito who only fights midgets.He needs to shut the pac up.
He is annoying when talks.Anyway, Pacquiao should fight a young hungry lion next.I don't want to see his fight with JOAN.And Runaire should fight Nishioka.Then Rigo and cap it off by fighting Gamboa.
