    4 fight deal...

    Look for him to be feed to Leo,Mares,Russell jr & Ponce!

    He is back training wit Nacho!

    Kinda shitty as he is shot to pieces and probably gets stopped by all of em!

    But a PRIME RAFA, would be a BIG FAVORITE over all of em! (Although Mares would be a goodfight, and Leo is not yet prime)

    Hope the marquez / vasquez fights didnt ruin him to the point that hes shot and washed up. I would like to see him healthy for the rest of his days. He was always my fav over him and juan manuel.

    4? That's about...four too many. :yep

    Leave your legacy alone, Raf. You did plenty. You don't have to keep up with your older brother, he's a freak of nature.

    I figured Marquez was looking at retirement let alone signing a 4 fight deal. I don't know if Marquez has anything left and is years from his best.

    If GBP were to put him against lesser guys on some of their smaller televised cards than this would be fine. But, they probably plan on matching him with some of their bigger names and Marquez has no chance against these guys anymore.

    I think the first two fights will be against lesser opposition on Tv.
    My guess is that they will rebuild him and then cash out with him in the third fight. Should he win the third one then it would set up an even bigger fight and it would be good buisness for GBP.

    :good+1.

    I thought Paulie was through, but smart matchmaking helped him enjoy a little resurgence and pick up a title at 147, which I didn't think he had in him.

    That's probably too ambitious for Rafa, but matched properly, maybe he can at least go out on somewhat of a high note.

    oh that's sad to hear. They'll be setting him up to get beat up on by Gary Russel, Santa Cruz or Mares
