    it would be a pretty amazing win, but even then it simply can't compare with jmm's wars with the current P4P #1....

    rafael is not far behind him if he beats Juan Ma but Juan manuel Marquez would still have a b it more depth to his resume imo

    I don't agree with you on this. I knew diaz wasn't the same after the Nate Cambell fight. If JMM would have KOed diaz before that damaging loss then I would say it's close but still not up there with Rafa beating Juanma.

    Overall he still wouldn't surpass his brother with that win IMO, unless he followed that up with beating Celestino, John, or gamboa.

    If Rafa wins, it would make the Marquez bros the first set of brothers to be 3 division champs, and that would be the aboslute ****!! :happy

    No, a win over JuanMa isn't nearly as good as a win over Pac (even if it didn't get scored a win, he definitely won the second fight).

    juanma isn't as proven as diaz.juanma has yet to face fighters like kats,julio diaz,frietas and diaz never had a scare with a fighter of mtagwa's level
