Per Dan Rafael. Cool fact. Back in 2015 Roman made a offered to Marquez to fight in Nicaragua, but Marquez didn't accept the fight, because he wanted 250K, which is a lot for lower weight fighters.
Oh my, imagine the Cinderella man aura Marquez would instantly inherit if he walked away with a win, after everything he's been through... The types of bad luck breaks & hard match ups he's made makes even Gonzalez's recent tough competition look meager in comparison...
No? Flip the order, and pretend the GGG vs. Canelo rematch had never existed. You wouldn't buy a PPV that featured González vs. Márquez as the main event with Golovkin vs. tuneup as the co-feature?
I really like both guys and neither can afford to lose right now, so this one has me wincing as much as thrilled at the prospects of the fireworks to come..
I really rolled and, ah-hem, died with Marquez. He was my man for quite a few years. I embarassingly actually had a bit of money on him in his third match with Luis, the Brian Viloria bout and a little on the Estrada match as well. To say I fell in love with the guys ten sizes too big heart & never say die performances is an understatement, some of his prime in the ring exploits are the stuff of legend...
Cool, hopefully this will end up happening. Im excited to see Chocolatito back in action. The knockout loss was bad but hey, he only has two losses and one of them, well, many thought he deserved to win, me included although I love Rungvisai Now, the second match was odd, Rungvisai is a beast and got the beautiful knockdown but its very rare to see someone look that defeated even before the match starts. Choco looked like a lost man in the ring before the match had started Hopefully he will bounce back and do decent. He has had some great and entertaining fights so far, I just wonder will he keep himself in the same weight class or move back? I dont know if this is a right weight class for him to be honest
Oh no... Tyson Marquez is still around? Even past prime Roman should stop him. Marquez had to many wars. Lets hope he will be alllright. His fights with Concepcion, Viloria and Segura are classics.
