I like it! Judah calling him out cuz it looks like Bradley/Khan/Alexander all busy. He mentioned he's game for Pac too. I believe Judah wants a fight with any/all of them. Marquez - Judah is a good fight I think and they both have a name so why not, Marquez ain't doing anything right now. Though its 50/50 JMM will wait out for the big Pac $$$.
Judah is a live dog IMO, he has the talent to pull some upsets. At 147 the fighters were to strong for him. Manny pulls it off because he has a high work rate and great stamina. At 140 he has only one loss in a flash knockdown to Tszyu, and he was doing pretty well at first. Judah vs any of these guys at 140 would be interesting and entertaining. Especially with Sweet Pea looking him out.
marquez should do this now, pick up judahs belt at 140 then make pac come down to it, thats his best chance at glory, but I suspect he will wait it out move up to 147 face pac then move down again.
This fight will probably happen. Everybody brings something to the table for everybody. Marquez wants that 4th title, and Judah is probably appears the least riskiest than the fresher younger champs at 140. Plus it'd be a good test to see how he can handle that weight. Judah wants a win over a notable opponent, and to get closer to P4P status. And as far as risk goes, there's no way in hell he could get hurt by Marquez. His only chance of losing is gassing out, and or getting outboxed. I doubt Judah could do what Mayweather did to Marquez for a full 12 rounds, so it should be somewhat competitive.... Guess we will see..
I like this fight a lot. Marquez might be just a little too small for Judah, but he is the greater and more consistent of the two so it could be interesting. If they can make it at 138 it would be best.
I never thought about it before, but this sounds like a good fight. Just because it gives Marquez a shot at a belt in a 4th weightclass, he can fight a fast strong southpaw and test the waters properly at the higher weight. If he wins, aside from Mayweather he really would be a great candidate to fight Pac and could at least try and negotiate the weight.
Why not? JMM needs to fight. Everyone else is busy. And if he can't get by Judah, JMM has no business w/ Pac.
I mean I guess. Obviously JMM is not pushover up or down a weight from lw. I just would like to avoid the "Judah picked on a smaller man" controversy if he wins, you know? I'm much more interested in Judah going against someone else in the top ten at lww, but I get the fact the Judah will make much more money facing Marquez, than almost absolutely losing in a lower money fight against someone like Bradley.
No, they are all busy or doing things of their own. Judah isn't on the radar of Bradley or Khan becasue right now, they're ranked higher, and looking at bigger things.
Hmmm... I'm not sure I like Marquez at 140, but still, I'd pick him over Judah. Still, why isn't Judah calling out the others at 140? As for Donaire... asking for him to jump up to 140 right now is a little crazy. I'd rather see Marquez fight Pac because I really have a lot of respect for Marquez and I feel he's done enough to deserve one last big pay day. However, if the fight is at 147, Marquez is going to have his hands full and then some.
