    I dunno if it's gonna be at a catch-weight or what.

    For some reason I don't think Marquez is just gonna plow through Morales. I figure Morales is at least in decent shape, and his has enough heart to stay live for at least a few rounds.

    But in the end, after maybe 2 or 3 competitve rounds, JMM takes over and forces a stoppage late.

    Marquez Tko10 Morales.

    Thoughts.

    that sounds about right. would be good to see marquez carry him if it came down to that, let him see the bell

    i really hope they both do this fight then retire

    nothing sadder than two legends overstaying their welcome and becoming punchbags for guys not fit to carry their jocks     :-:)verysad

    Wow, wasn't expecting this bout...I've waited years for this.

    This is now my most anticipated bout of 2011!!!

    Marquez is the big favourite...but I'm hoping Morales pulls one last great performance out the bag, making it very competitive.

    I'm pretty sure Morales was the one pursing this, and Marquez is simply obliging the legend.

    If anything Morales' name value deserves one last shot IMO.

    Marquez has to know, people won't look at a win over Morales as anything too special at this point.

    At least Marquez is 3 years Morales' elder, with almost the same amount of pro bouts.

    Uh, did you seem JMM last fight?

    He's not exactly a punching bag yet. More like a punching bag, that hits you back, harder, and until you don't know how to stand anymore.

    Morales is the shot fighter, Marquez is still very good. Non-comparable.

    The win would essentially mean nothing.

    Well i guess this is Marquez's Mosley.

    Its nothing more than a money fight.

    I would have rather seen a Maidana fight or the winner of Bradley-Alexander but im sure that can still be worked out.
