Jorge Arce vs Rafael Marquez...At 122lbs!

rafa
too much for arce

would be a great fight tho!!

 

Marquez is too big and too skilled and would shred Arce. Cut him up, hurt him, drop him and eventually knock him out mid to late in the fight.

 

Yeah Arce is pretty much done at the top level this was his last great fight IMO. Kinda reminds me of Michael Carbajal's last figth of his career vs Arce when he knocked him out in the 11th round and that was his last great win against a good young title holder who was less experienced and just starting his career.

Marquez I think can still give any 122/126 pounder a tough fight or win and is much bigger then Arce and hits way harder then anyone Arce has fought even Darchinyan. Pus Marquez's just overall boxing skill makes this an almost an impossible fight for Arce unless he can get inside and stay inside and take Marquez's shots and hurt Marquez which might be tough because he doesnt have Vazquez power at 122 and def dont punch as hard as JuanMa and Marquez took those shots and wasnt ever really hurt bad in the fight like legs gone ready to go hurt.

 

I dont know man. Nishioka is the real deal and this fight imo is extremely close I slighty favor Nishioka and its all depends on how much Marquez has left and how making 122 will effect him. If the same Marquez from the JuanMa fight shows up I think he takes it. But even in his prime Nishioka would be a TOUGH fight for Marquez. Nishioka would be the bigger guy(since he's a big 122 pounder and in his prime Maruqez was 118 although a huge 118 pounder) he's also very skilled and can hurt people with his power. Great fight now would be even greater prime for prime. If Marquez fought him before Vazquez to set it up for a unification...... oh boy that wouldve been a good one but I think Rafa wouldve stopped him late. Come October....... I dont know I cant ake a prediction.

 

Rafa is a way harder, accurate and sharper puncher then Vic. Also way taller and naturally bigger and a much better all around boxer and way more skilled.
