    According to Arum this is a possibility if Marquez wins his next fight.

    Who wins and how??

    Love Rafa.

    But hes past it.

    Donaire would knock him out inside four.

    this is the Rafa who went to war with JML and was never knocked down.

    Do you think Donaire is a harder puncher??

    I want to say Donaire but after seeing an injured Rafa give JML hell who is a much bigger fighter and i would think a harder puncher then i dont know now.

    Maybe we need a poll. Who hits harder? JML or Donaire??

    Speed kills.

    He will be hit by something he doesnt see and ends up in the canvas.

    Even if he doesnt get stopped he still loses by wide decision.

    Would be rooting for him though.

    I think JML hits harder; as of now I'd favor Donaire, but only slightly. Rafa is still a live fighter.

    This fight would be great.

    Would this be at 126?

    If so, I'd love to see this. Rafa may well be past his best, but he'd provide a heck of a fight.

    Donaire moves up to 126 or Rafa moves back down to 122?

    i would give Marquez the respect of choosing his best weight.

    i dont think it matters for Donaire

    I would prefer this fight to take place at 120. Its only fair to Donaire whos never fought past 118 lbs.

    If I remember correctly, Donaire only weighed 126 on fight night against Montiel. Very surprising considering the size of him when he was with Montiel (who was 134).

    I dont think Donaire is that much faster than Rafa though. People keep saying Rafa is shot but i dont think he is shot. He is past it just not shot. His speed still seems to be in tact. Also Rafa has one hell of a jab. Precise quick and alot of snap to it. He fights off that jab and i think Donaire is in trouble.

    Obviously yes Donaire would be the favorite but Rafa is a live live underdog.

    Floyd would knock out both of them with one eye closed and one hand tied behind his back. If you think otherwise, then you don't know **** about boxing.
