Azumah Nelson vs Juan Manuel Marquez

[Boxing56]

Who would win at 130? It's 50/50 for me.

Juan can be hurt. Although he is clearly incredibly difficult to stop.


However, I say Nelson knocks him out.

Marquez. Sharper puncher and better technician. Both tough as hell, but Marquez is more skilled and more polished and was fine when brawling too.

I am leaning towards Juan although I can see this being a incredible close fight.

[OctoberRed]

Very close, but I give Marquez the edge with his sharp, accurate punches.

Nelson fought great fighters.

Juan doesn't have a single real win. the best he ever did was drug cheat against a real ATG.

Juan is a coward with a garbage boxing record.
Juan also has a glass chin.

Coward who boxed professionally for over 20 years? Garbage record? You have high standards or extreme bias and are probably selective when combining those things.

He fought a roided up Pacquaio four times who was enhanced when he fought Morales, Barrera, Cotto etc;

Glass chin? How? I don't remember his chin failing him or him ever getting KO'd. I remember Pacquaio being KO'd and he was roided to the gills in that fight.

What "great" fighter(s) did Nelson beat? Lost to Whitaker, lost to Sanchez. Nelson was a beast, but he's not not as good or as accomplished as Marquez.

Azumah

Marquez struggles badly with good boxers i.e. Chris John, Floyd, Bradley, Freddie Norwood

Unless the guy is coming straight forward like Juan Diaz, katsidis, manny 1,4 Marquez can have trouble landing shots

[Zaroku]

Azuma got hit a lot... JMM wins

[BennyST]

Cracking fight. Honestly don’t know...probably leaning toward Marquez very slightly but a very close fight and hard to pick.

Both hittable, yet both with excellent all round skills and amazingly tough.
