By Dallan o’ Donnell: Tonight boxing fans could potentially be in for the fight night of the year. Two fights that both could easily bag fight of the year if all goes according to script. The first comes from Helsinki, Finland which sees former WBC.
Marquez (51-5-1, 37 knockouts) stands as Mexico’s proudest world champion, having fought Manny Pacquiao to a 2004 draw and a 2008 split-decision loss. Marquez proceeded to claim the lightweight belt by defeating Juan Diaz in the 2009 fight of the year.
One day, and maybe one day soon, it will be a fight too far for Marquez, possibly if he goes after one of the new powers at light-welterweight like Bradley or Khan and finds them just too fast. Barring a far more sudden decline than any of the current evidence suggests however, win 52 of Marquez’s great career seems to be the only likely outcome this time around.
