    That fight will be great and makes a lot of sense for Khan. Winner takes on Bradley/Alexander.

    Khan is the fight which makes the most sense, since JMM seems only to be after a payday. He would jump all over it if he was really interested. Morales is the fight he wanted all along. I called it after the Pac fight was dead and was told by his fans he would prove me wrong by fighting a Khan or Bradley. I'll believe that when I see it. I still think JMM-Morales is going to happen next.

    I think Marquez should have a tune up to test the waters at 140 first, then take on Khan. But not against Morales.

    This is a better move for Juanita instead of chasing Pacquiao like a jilted lover.

    Marquez is good in lightweight but I am pessimistic on his chances
    at 140, moreso with Khan who toppled a tough banger Maidana.
    He's only up for retirement money. That's all. He should focus on
    fighting Humberto Soto and unite the lightweight division for his legacy.

    According to Azteca, Marquez ducks Soto.

    Of course.. We both know he is.... But this would seperate him.... unfortunately his name at this point will always ring bells with..."whats his name"""

    I hope they get Khan. JMM can always fight Morales once he's done as a high-level fighter.

    I'd MUCH prefer to see JMM vs. Katsidis, Rios, Soto, or Ortiz before he fights the likes of Khan or the Bradley/Alexander winner. Because I do expect Khan to beat and possibly stop him. The size difference is huge, and Khan has speed and power.

    But JMM can counterpunch like a muther****er, and we all know Khan can be hit. Problem is I don't think JMM has the power to stop him....but if he catches him just right, you never know. And if he gets Khan hurt, you better believe he'll finish him (none of that jamming himself up that Maidana was doing.) So it's not like we can write off Marquez. I'd prefer to see him work his way up in weight though.

    However, beat Khan and you've got the Bradley/Alexander winner, which I think is a much more favorable fight for Marquez. And then how's Pacquiao going to duck him...

    if khan takes this fight next wins and beats alexander bradley winner,then he is for reals.

    i think khan is to fast,to mobile,to tall,to much range and size differential.

    too much fast high number combinations from khan for marquez to be able to beat him.

    and i dont think marquez has anything near the wild or dangerous power and style that maidana brung last time.

    Oh, I hope this fight gets made! I'd love to see Marquez make the move up to 140. My favorite boxer currently, and I see great matches for him!
