    Marquez-Pacquiao III is huge if Marquez pulls off the win. They say Marquez is not the most popular fighter in Mexico since Jesus.

    I do NOT believe Juan M. Marquez has caught the attention from the fans of Mexico in the manner that J.C. Chavez or Marco A. Barrera once did / do............ Hell, even Erik Morales is more revered........

    Juan M. Marquez gets his respect, but he is not treated like Royalty all over the country....... "Chavez & Barrera" are KINGS there in Mexico......

    It would be one of the most glorious nights of my life as a boxing fan, if not the very best, if Dinamita could beat Floyd. Alas, I just can't see it. I don't believe Juan will hold the extra 10lbs very well, and he could end up being outmuscled by the bigger and I believe stronger man. Floyd being Floyd will feel under no obligation to entertain or attack, and will lie back forcing JMM to make the fight by being the aggressor, and this will make it easier for Floyd to look good, pick him off, and sneak the rounds. Then in the later rounds, Floyd will start to push forward and be more aggressive, will dominate the later rounds, maybe score a knockdown, and take a wide UD. Marquez will always make it competitive because he has such a big heart, real determination, and top class skills of his own, but this opponent at this weight is just a step too far for him.

    I pray I'm wrong.

    JMM wont lose more than 7 rounds here...

    close boring fight...all JMM's fights have been close and the dominance factor prevents him from being ranked higher

    close fights with pacquiao, casamayor, diaz, john, norwood and barrera,
