I think Khan could well take a SD win.. He will get there first with his speed, but i wanna see how he adjusts when JMM comes back every time with counters. I don't know if JMM has declined, don't wana make that judgement after losing to someone like Mayweather.. Would be a great fight!
I would fancy Khan in this to win quite comfortably. Too much speed and he's the bigger man, crucially. Marquez is also getting older. I don't think his rematch with Diaz is the sure thing people think it is anyway but when that fight does come along we'll be in a better position to judge how much Marquez has left.
at what weight? 140 or 135? @140: JMM would likely be too slow (bloated jmm) to react against Khan. Khan by stoppage through accumulation. @135: JMM still can have his moments, but his age and his previous fight (147 jmm-floyd) took a toll on him. Khan UD (but still close, say 8-4)
I remember another poll with the same topic. And people who voted, or atleast gave Khan a chance were labelled as crazies.
It'll be at 140 mate. I think that was before he blew away Salita and Paulie. The improvements he's shown under Roach are frightening; hence the change in opinion on this match-up.
i just think khans workrate is too much for marquez, and id like to see how khans chin can stand up to marquez's best shot
Khan by TKO without too many problems. Marquez doesn't start to adjust till the mid rounds and Marquez was hurt by Juan Diaz who is a pretty light puncher. I expect Khan to hurt him and finish him off. Go check out the Marquez-JD fight. Khan will honestly stop the guy.
Marquez isn't what he was and has no business at 140 (typical Con opponent), but still has more then enough to knock that glass jawed wanker out. [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kHzn1AISMnQ&feature=player_embedded[/ame]
It's hard to know what you're going to get with Marquez at 140, he looked inferior at 135 than he did at 130 (due to being past prime) and looked complete turd at 147, so are we to expect a version between past prime and complete turd if we're meeting in the middle? We will have to see what he's got about him against Diaz and how much the Mayweather fight took out of him since Nacho thinks he would take a while to recover from it.
