    You'd be lucky to find anyone that has even seen Marquez/John let alone John at all period. :lol: Still, it's pretty safe to say Rocky "Waiting Room" Juarez can't bring himself to bring even remotely enough to win this fight. That's Rocky. And I've seen John, and Rocky would have had some issues any****ingway.

    So what's the bet? Or are the odds pretty much spot on?

    The odds are hype, really - based on baseless expectations and essentially one fight (Marquez/John) as far as the West is interested if we're really going to get down to it. Additionally, these odds are rooted in the would-be "failings" of Juarez as a habitual bridesmaid. If you're feeling really frisky, get on with your bad self. An upset isn't the least bit unlikely. It's a dice roll, maybe more so than the numbers are telling us by +100 capped. Personally, I don't **** with Juarez - thus my initial comment. I'd just stay away.

    This fight was very hard to find. Most people haven't even seen it. When I found this diamond in the rough I had to advertise. Marquez was robbed.

    Juarez doesn't stand a chance in hell. I dont think John is anything special and JMM would beat him handily in a rematch outside Indonesia even though I believe John to have a styles advantage over JMM. Look for John to run all night and outpoint Juarez.

    Isn't it generally accepted that Rocky Juarez is the most boring fighter in world boxing alongside Zaheer Rahman?

    I've seen Chris John a bunch of times and even at those odds I would pick him over Juarez though its a hard pick.

    Juarez is a live underdog. He could have a great performance in him. Noone really knows how Chris John will react to fighting in America. Also the fight is in Juarez' home town under his promoter's banner. A robbery or biased reffereeing is not out of the question.

    That being said, based on what I've seen of both fighters its John by UD in a boring fight

    Boredom written all over this ****in' boring fight.

    Juarez? I won't pay even a ****ing cent just to feel frustrated seeing a fighter with so much upside bury himself with his inactivity, unbelievable unwillingness and hesitation to attack even if his only weapon is his power. It is like watching a clue less, inept ****** three-year old child playing a basketball game with seven years old kid who can actually play basketball.

    And Chris John? Don't bother watching his fight with JMM; it sucked. He sucked. JMM sucked there too. That fight was a stinker of a **** fight. I can only imagine him going out of the slow Juarez's way and pretending he knows how to defend. I bet in this fight, they can set a new record for the lowest total punch output recorded in the history of modern boxing.

    And if forced to pick who will win between the two, I will go with John. That is becasue Juarez' ineptness is so proven I can actually pick his opponent (whoever he is) against him everytime he has a fight. He is that bad.

    Boxing Bet 101... Never bet on a fighter you've never seen.. Im picking John by UD and so is most other people but if youve never seen John's fight yourself, do not put money on him..

    Watch his fights and make your own judgment. You can see his full Heroyuki Enoki fight on youtube.
