Marquez turns down Morales fight. Wants Khan

Marquez shouldn't be above 135. Kahn is all wrong for him. This is a bad idea. I love Marquez but he needs to be matched carefully at his age.

"If Golden Boy took the risk of a Morales fight, it should be at 140 pounds," said Marquez. "Then we could both be battling for a world championship in a fourth weight class, making history and more attractive for fans."

No Mexican fighter has ever held world titles in four divisions, but a glance at the status of the four major sanctioning bodies at 140 pounds shows that there are no vacant titles available for Morales and Marquez to dispute

That right there is the big issue in the sport.

Too much reports coming out, its hard to believe one in particular at this point. Marquez vs Morales is a fight for pride and glory and obviously the Khan fight is a money fight. Khan will make him a lot more, but physically Marquez is at a huge disadvantage vs Khan. Floyd was a defensive with not a lot of pop. He may of dominated Marquez, but he couldnt knock out Marquez because Floyd has no killer instict. Khan however is an all offensive in the ring (do to his Wild Card Gym training), he will easily knock Marquez out because he holds every advantage. Khans hands are way too quick for Marquezes reflexes. Marquez wont be able to move away or deflect any of his punched with his glove like he normally does. Yeah he may of done great against Pacquaio, but Khan IMO is not only faster, but with his reach and hieght, it will be impossible for Marquez to counter him or even land anything clean. Khan will throw combos and move back and give Marquez no oppertunities to do anything. Its just a total mismatch, but I believe Marquez is using Khan as leverage to get more Money out of Morales. Theres a reason Nacho and Marquez turned down Khan the first time.

diego all good points plus marquez cant fight going foward..manny pac came to him so did kasidits and kahn will not.
