    Jofre had slowed enough to make it a hard fight for a while, but his still superior skills, chin and power should allow him to pull away for a decision win, maybe with a few knockdowns of Marquez thrown in.

    Jofre was at least a class above JMM..he would have decked Marquez several times and bagged a comfortable decision.

    I have a feeling Marquez is being sold short once again... Jofre is arguably the greatest BW of all time (along with ORtiz,Olivares) and he was a great Fw too(but he slowed down a notch) .. On JMM best day he might eeke out a decision here(getting up from a KD) . I can see him using his height and his then excellent speed to win enough rounds, .. But anything less then his best and Jofre takes a close decison.... EIther way its a razor close fight i went with too close to call.

    I think Marquez takes it at Feather. Great fight though.
