Pac looks different than he did in previous fights. Is it because of his new shorter haircut or does his face look thinner? I don't want to accuse a great fighter like Pac of taking steroids, but the guy who started that thread about the possibility of him juicing might be onto something.
He just got a new haircut which made him thinner. But the body mass can tell that its hard as a rock... This content is protected This content is protected
I'm probably just overthinking it.. nevermind. I don't want to accuse Pac of doing steroids. He is clearly in 100% shape and he trained for this fight harder than any fight in years. I expect him to show up better than he did against Barrera in the rematch, but hopefully JMM is still prime enough to outclass him for 8+ rounds. I can't wait until Saturday!
If Marquez wins on Saturday, do you think he would surpass Barrera and Morales in terms of greatness?
He wouldn't surpass them, but I think he would deserve to be right beside them, slightly lower in terms of greatness. A clear win over Guzman would put him in front though. What do you think?
The exact same thing. Morales and Barrera have much deeper resumes and titles in 3 divisions. For Marquez to surpass them, he'd need to beat Guzman and probably another title holder from 126-130 (maybe Valero, Linares, or better yet, Chris John). I really hope Marquez gets this victory; it would solidify his legacy. He's had to wait years for opportunities and I want boxing fans to remember him as the great technical boxer he is, well after he retires.
Man, I can't even describe to you how disappointed I will be if Marquez loses or worst of all, gets knocked out by Pac on Saturday. If he loses by KO and retires not long after, a lot of people will look back and not give him the credit he deserves as a H2H fighter and overall great. He's had a tougher career than MAB/Morales, much worse luck, and he never got their fame despite being on the same level skills/heart wise. I have about 10% of my sportsbook bankroll on Marquez to win, but losing the money won't hurt nearly as much as seeing JMM not get this extremely important legacy win and seeing Pac nuthuggers celebrating here for another year. IMO Marquez already has one win over Pac.. but I really hope he wins again this time and gets the judges' decisions too. A KO win for Marquez would make me celebrate for at least the rest of the month.
You should expect for the worst huki... PacD and his gang will be all over the board if PAC gets the win.
