    I think he'll be okay and put the weight on properly. I heard something that will be interesting on 24/7 is that he eats some odd stuff, does some unusual training things.

    Great video. I think that Marquez plans on coming in barely at 140. He will probably come in the same weight he fought Diaz and Casamayor.

    Great video!!!

    I think he'll be heavier than that. Even if he loses I imagine he'll fight at 140 regardless afterwards.

    145-147 is what I figure he'll weigh for the fight.

    I hope he comes in under 147, not try to match weight.

    I thought that too but on fight day he weighed about 135 he said he needs to gain 9 pounds 135+9=144. However I think he will come in at 140 at the weigh in and the day of the fight.

    Who knows....?

    He weighed 140 on fight night for Juan Diaz. 9 pound difference for the weigh-in with Diaz and the weigh-in with Floyd.

    I saw this article online just now

    at http://www.doghouseboxing.com/dhb/DHBPr0821c08.htm

    Nacho said in regards to the Casamayor fight

    “We have been working really hard in the gym. Juan has been lifting more weights to focus on gaining strength and muscle. We have changed his diet as well. He has been eating more carbohydrates to gain the extra weight. Moving up in weight is a very difficult process for Juan because he is a natural 126 pound fighter and normally fights at 130 pounds, so he is going up even more. The weight is definitely an advantage for Casamayor because after the weigh-in, Juan will not gain that much weight. He will probably fight around 142 pounds at the most and Casamayor will definitely go up more than that.”

    Like egg yolks in the morning like Rocky? :rofl:rofl:rofl Marquez adding more bulk to his old frame will definitely slow him down.
