Feel free to up this if I'm wrong. But JuanMa's about to get exposed. This is my bold prediction thread for 2010. Rafa TKO7.
I'm leaning towards Rafa via stoppage as well. Surely JuanMa is the favorite, but this time the old warrior probably pulls it out.
I actually agree with you Lopez has been made to look somewhat ordinary everytime he steps up in competetion because he telegraphs his punches, and Rafael may be smaller and not hit as hard but still hits damn hard and Rafael is imo on the elite lvl he's mostly offensive and his defense is lacking same with Lopez though .....I just think with the great timing and combinations that Rafael has and the telegraphed left hand and almost equally bad defense Lopez is gonna get picked apart. I truly believe Rafael still has one great fight left in him think Morales-Pacquaio I(im not comparing and don't at all mean this to make a Pac thread).
I agree , Lopez has had a lot of praise since Ponce de Leon , but this is a totally different level. Marquez is such a good technitian , punches so hard and has real speed. Rafeal in 8
i cant believe so many picking rafa, he has showed a dodgy chin before his defence is poor and juanma is gonna knock him out i reckon
I dont care who wins, i reckon this one could be a war. btw im going for Lopez but its one of those fights where anything could happen.
Leaning towards Rafa. Rooting for him. I don't think anyone throws better combos than the Marquez brothers. They're great to watch.
When the young lion takes on the older experienced veteran in a 'passing of the torch' fight, how often does the young lion fall short?
i hope marquez wins but a lopez victory wouldnt surprise me. nothing would surprise me in this fight.
