He should be remembered as a great fighter. I don't think he's a truly great fighter anymore at his age and after all of his epic battles (he's more vulnerable than ever and is definitely slowing down a lot), but that great warrior spirit is as strong as ever.
yes this thread isn't necessary, since it should be common knowledge that Marquez is a great fighter. BUT you should check this bull**** out http://www.eastsideboxing.com/forum/showthread.php?t=316827
I'm with IB on this...the guy is arguably 1 of the smartest fighters today. Ofcos the guy is great imo and by the looks of the results so do most ppl on the board
A great fighter has to show me more than just a winning record ( although thats a key issue) Bums win fights ie Vitali Klitsco who will never be great. When I watch a fighter master all the disiplines of boxing and can apply them effortlessly when needed, then I know Im watching a great fighter. JMM has the heart of a tiger, a chin of stone and the brain ofr a surgen. Not only is he a great fighter now, he's getting greater!!!
