    Khan will give JMM some trouble with his speed early on, but once Marquez figures him out and gets his timing on. Khan will get TKO'd

    Close fight, Khan is much bigger then marquez....I think their is possibility that khan may be featherfisted.....because now he doesnt sit on his punches....the salita fight will tell me a lot more about his power....khan can use lateral movement and foot speed to get in and out on marquez.....Roach claims khan is faster then pacquiao, believing that is a different story....

    I would say Khan MD...or a draw...

    It would be fairly competitive for the first few rounds, but midway through I think JMM will have figured Khan out, and begin to land hurtful shots to the head and body. The accurcay of JMM's combinations really is a thing of beauty, and there really is no chance that Khan will evade them. Even at 140 he'll have enough of a pop to hurt him, and likely stop him in the late rounds.

    Khan is just too inexperienced to be put in with JMM straight away. Give him a few more fights, and a chance to learn new tricks (particularly defensive), I think he'll be favourite to get one over the ageing JMM. Remember Khan's team (Warren and Roach) are fully aware of fighting people at the right time, so don't expect this fight to happen too soon

    marquez would win because of his experience and accuracy, he might not be the fastest at this weight, but he is clever and will bring khan in so he exposes himslef and marquez will take advantage of such mistakes.

    A legendary boxer like JMM versus the lowly Khan. C'mon!

    Amir is decent, but he's not there yet. Although, I do think he has the potential to be great. We'll have to wait and see how he deals with the competition.

    Although I'd favor Marquez to win a decision, I think it would be a good, competitive fight. I'd like to see it.

    Khan by decision. I dont see JMM being that far better than MAB and i am using the MAB-KHAN fight as guage. And the JMM of JWW is much slower than when he was a featherweight/lightweight. Khan is/probably the fastest JWW right now, and despite the suspect chin, the kid seemed to have learned to cover up.

    He's not koing jmm though. Too much heart in that fighter.

    I'm not sure of Marquez at this age and above 135. Not sure at all. Khan is in superb young condition at his perfect weight at 140 and significantly bigger.

    At 140 JMM would get stopped. He is nit the same fighter at these weights
