[Boxing]: Cotto vs Marquez - Exhibition match

[Botnake]

It took a while before I saw those boxers trying to back into the boxing world, base on my perspective and analysis I think Marquez has the potential to win this game because on the match of Pacquiao and Marquez on a long time they are the best rivalry and also just a two-match with Cotto only against Pacquiao rather than Pacquiao and Marquez it's just speculation that Marquez will dominate this game. Of course, this is a sports game, and mind games anything can happen in a one-punch or mistake this can turn over the game easily and chance to win the title.

I did not even expect them to come back because they have already retired in boxing a long time ago, their names are just fresh in our memory because their opponent which is Manny Pacquioa is still active in boxing despite already 42 years old. Your speculation that Marquez will dominate is not as what majority is thinking of the oucome of this fight, the pool reveals that Cotto has more votes to win.

If you do try to look back on Pacquiao vs Cotto then he had been defeated via TKO 55 seconds in the 12th round which happened in 2009 which did result on dethroning Cotto as a WBO
welterweight champion and that made pacquiao the first ever seven-weight world champ and there were no rematches happen between the two after that.

On where on marquez vs pacquiao
1st fight -split draw
2nd -Pacquiao (split decision)
3rd- Pacquiao (majority decision)

Based up on performance I can say that Marquez will beat up Cotto.

Sometimes we cannot use that as a basis though.

Pacquioa fougth bradley 3 times, first fight was a loss, 2nd and 3rd fight are all won by Manny via unanimous decision.

Then Bradley fought Marquez, Bradley won by SD.
Marquez vs Cotto is a fair fight, they have their own style and they will not use the same style when they fought Manny Pacquiao.

Marquez vs Cotto is a fair fight, they have their own style and they will not use the same style when they fought Manny Pacquiao.

Past performance will dictate the flow of speculations and since marquez make the career of pacquaio hard then provably it can make the career of Cotto the same. We know how good marquez on counter punching so provably  Cotto will struggle since his not a flashy fighter like pacquaio.

So if I'm gonna bet this fight then my money goes to marquez and I believe many other gamblers to.

Seriously, they're going to have an exhibition match? these fighters had a match with Pacquiao before and that's good to see that they'll be having their exhibition match.
I guess other retired players can still go back into the ring if they want to just for an exhibition.

As what OP have shared, they will have an exhibition match, this is what you called boxing life after retirement from professional boxer. All a fighter should do is to be a popular boxer so he will still have more fans after he retired and he can this exhibition which will certainly generate money for them.

Since Cotto is the favorite based on the poll, I guess that's what bookies will give us once the betting odds are out.

This is a surprise:

Miguel Cotto vs. Juan Manuel Marquez Exhibition Clash in Play For June 12



Oh well, retired boxers are now on the exhibition match. I think this fight should have happened when they are still fighting, Pacquiao has the luxury to fight these two legendary boxers, specially Marquez. Information is sketchy at this point.

Perhaps Cotto will be the slight favourite here.

These are two of the best slugger in their division, it's unfortunate that we have not witnessed these two fighters together in the ring in their fighting days, both fighters did not show sign of aging in their last fights, but since this is an exhibition match with no belt or ranking at stake and with many stipulations don't think we will see a slugfest as we've seen in their heydays, they are two of my favorite boxers and hopefully they will not seriously hurt each other, I bet Cotto will win by a decision here.

That was actually a kind of my reaction and was really surprised.

I agree that money is still a thing for this match and such exhibitions will make them more money. And while there's still a pandemic, this is very necessary for them to earn more although I don't know how much wealth they have and what's their current life status and situation.

They are taking advantage on the popularity of the exhibition fights, well, it could be without a crowd but they'll still be happy with the result as this is just an exhibition fight. I guess it started with Tyson vs Jones Jr, they make some good money, and now these retired greats are trying to play around on the trend.

[South Park]

But lets just see this fight for sure will give a time to watch this bout since this two fighter are quite good opponent of Pacman.

Fans would easily remember these two fighters as two great opponent of Pacman, particularly Marquez where he fought a series of fight but in the end it was Marquez who won but just due to a lucky punch, a one time punch KO. Some even say that Marquez is a coward for not giving Pacman a chance for a rematch even if he was offered with big money.

I saw that fight and I do not see how people can say that it was a lucky punch, there is footage of Marquez training that particular punch against their sparrings, Pacquiao had already fell before that punch in a previous round and you can see that Marquez is specifically waiting for Manny to come to him and try to deliver that punch, it was not a lucky punch it was a successful strategy that was implemented perfectly at the right place and the right time.

Maybe it was a lucky punch in the sense that Marquez was already losing the fight but he was able to do the right timing to KO Pacman. If Pacman was more careful and he did not go for a kill instead, that would give an easy win for him as he was faster and stronger than Marquez, but things happened, no excuses and we have to give that win whether by luck or not.

Yup, while their popularity is still there they have to advantage of it to make money which they can no longer do that when they become older.
This is like an enjoyment to them while making money and the passion is still there, they really are lucky and fortunate to have such opportunities during this pandemic.

I think it was Floyd who popularized this kind of exhibition match. But Tyson and Jones Jr was the one to take it one step as they created a lot of hype because they are legendary boxers. And now Cotto vs Marquez, two warriors wanted to get in the fun in the pandemic and raise some good money.

Besides, they are still fresh from retirement, unlike Tyson and Jones. Maybe Cotto and Marquez can still fight and who will forget his knockout of Manny Pacquiao. Having fun and making money its definitely a win win for them.

Maybe he was but I don't really count Floyd to take care of his reputation as this man knows nothing but money. I'm just surprise that after Tyson vs Jones, we now see Cotto vs Marquez which I thought would just leave boxing to enjoy the retirement, but here they come, trying to milk some money.

I guess other retired players can still go back into the ring if they want to just for an exhibition.

If they still want to dance in the Ring and they still have those bodies that can take some power punches, why not. After all, these guys are one of the best fighters of their time. Now that they want to try again in the ring as an entertainer, then they need to give their best since their fight is not free to watch. I think more of those boxers who still in the shape to box will gonna have their exhibition match after this fight. The outcome of this fight will result in their decision whether they coming back or not.

They can comeback anytime as long as there's a good offer but this has nothing to do with Manny, and there's also a lot of exhibition match before just like on Floyd, that match still generate money for them a great way for the pros to still make money despite of their retirement. Mix match are also rising, looks like this is a new trend on making easy money for a boxer and an MMA fighter.

Easy money but the level of competition is going down, we as a fans who paid money to enjoy deserve better, so they better stop this exhibition fight as there are lots of real fights that deserves to sell to the public or the fans.

Mix match are also rising, looks like this is a new trend on making easy money for a boxer and an MMA fighter.

I hate to see this kind of competition, Mayweather and Conor started it all.

I'm only telling that both fighters had a match with Pacquiao before and we all knew about it. Yeah, about Floyd, that seem to be his income generating machine and there's still a demand from his fans to watch his fans because he's controversial.
I guess this is going to be the new trend these days, retired boxers would have a match with another retired one.

I don't think so mate, this is jus an exhibition match AKA money making scheme for retired boxers and not a gauge for them to come back to competitive boxing.

I just don't know what got into them but this series of exhibition match is making boxing looks like a circus and i don't think that we deserve this one as hardcore fan of boxing.

Yes, again Floyd and then Tyson vs Jones. Now boxers are making this exhibition match to make money and I doubt that either Cotto or Marquez will come out of retirement is this pandemic boxing era.

I just don't know what got into them but this series of exhibition match is making boxing looks like a circus and i don't think that we deserve this one as hardcore fan of boxing.

Well it's a business when boxing started to have boxing promoters like Don King and Bob Arum. Although we have seen a lot of good fights, yet there could be a lot of good fights that could have happen if not for the epidemic.
