And maybe a determining factor if they will get out of their retirement and fight one more time.

Not possible and not a good idea as they don't have a target or goal anymore. If they will come out of retirement, more for money purposes now and not because they want to achieve another milestone in their respective careers.

And they will make more money in exhibition matches compare to a title match. These boxing legends won't also accept a low deal if they will return to the ring so I doubt there's an active boxer that will accept their challenge.

I actually give both of them the recognition since they are only the few fighters who went toe-to-toe with Manny Pacquiao during his prime.

I agree with Marquez as he is really hungry to beat Pacquaio during their time. Even willing to accept a much lower deal and paycheck just to make the fight happen and successfully managed to get his goal at their 4th time meeting.

But not with Cotto as the latter became a Pacman's punching bag during their fight. Cotto's wife can't even take it and leave the arena. Salute however to Cotto as even he's struggling and bloodied he manage to survive until the last round.

You can make up those comparison basing off with those previous fights that they had with Pacquiao and you can really tell on who is much more better with that which is Marquez.
Im with Marquez with this fight if ever this one will happen because no doubt that this guy can still make out those punches even if he's past to his prime and same goes with
Cotto but im not really expecting that much specially if this is just a exhibition match but still this could be considered to be entertaining.
Its now becoming a trend to make exhibition fights like this where management could really sip out some revenues on here.

Interesting what odds will the sportsbooks give to this exhibition fight. I believe even if this is just an exhibition fight, these 2 fighters will give their best to give not a boring fight to viewers. At least, give an interesting fight to watch for all boxing fans. Maybe this fight will also give them an idea how are they now inside the ring. And maybe a determining factor if they will get out of their retirement and fight one more time.

Holy sh*t! That is actually my first reaction when I read the news about an exhibition match between two of my favorite boxing fighters of all time. I actually give both of them the recognition since they are only the few fighters who went toe-to-toe with Manny Pacquiao during his prime.

I remember, these two boxers are very respectable on their respective fields as everyone actually loves them! To see that they are going to have an exhibition match brings me back to the days when Pacquiao dominated the boxing sport before. I also remember that Pacquiao mentioned that his fight with Cotto was considered his most difficult fight; to see that Cotto and Marquez in the boxing ring again is every boxer fan's dream!

I have spare of 250$ this May so i think i'll be saving this for the fight . though I'm not a fan of exhibition fights but i guess this one is worth betting.

That's a decent bet already, I'm also interested on betting in this fight but until now i could not find the betting odds. I will not bet right away but it's nice to see the betting odds early so we will have an idea on who is the favorite and underdog of the fight.

Is the deal for this fight already sealed? I guess the odds will come out soon if this fight proceeds. But this is still scheduled two months from now so there is still enough time left for you to wait for the odds and decide which is the fighter to stake your money on.

I also think 250$ is big enough. Remember that this is just a friendly match. But it is up to you of course. It is your money anyway.

That depends on OP's budget, it's an exhibition fight but betting is betting, you can put any amount that you can afford to lose, that would add up some excitement because its necessary for us who love to gamble and love the sport. $250 is big for others but for others it's just a small amount, we have different financial status, so we feel differently.

One problem with exhibition fights however is that there is a chance for its result to be a draw no matter how lopsided the decision could be. This is an exhibition fight and they would probably make it last up to 12 rounds just like Tyson and Jones exhibition fight. If it was a real title fight, it wouldn't last up to 12 rounds knowing Tyson would throw his uppercut from down under with all his weight and up.

This fight Cotto vs Marquez exhibition could also end a draw as well as its made for the audience to enjoy the signature fighting style.

Looks like Cotto is leading in Poll but i will be for Marquez on this fight. My recent Bet is for Cotto but looks like there is a change of Plan after i watch one of Marquez practice lol.

Good luck, both are great fighers so either fighter could win.

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

Quote

Multiple sources have informed BoxingScene.com that the pair of former four-division titlists are due to meet in an exhibition bout on June 12 from a location to be determined. Details on the event have yet to be confirmed other than that an announcement from both parties is expected in the coming days.

https://www.boxingscene.com/miguel-cotto-vs-juan-manuel-marquez-exhibition-clash-play-june-12--156534

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.

I decided to vote for Cotto and I think will bet for him for another face-off between Marquez, I think he can still take a beating and can surely deliver his punches with minimal training in no time, even though he doesn't have the height advantage I think he can pack a punch regarding of the height of his opponent, giving the fact that he has a 33 winning knockout on his record is not really bad and this exhibition match can help him get back on track even though it is for a little while.

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.

check this news out. https://www.boxingscene.com/marquez-reveals-he-rejected-100-million-fifth-pacquiao-bout--123560

As a fan I was also looking for that to happen but it seems like Marquez has already closed the door of a possibility, it doesn't sound that Marquez doesn't need money anymore that's why he rejected that big offer, what I think is that he doesn't want to lose against Pacquioa has he know he was just lucky on that win.

Lucky or not but still is a loss, people would really just make out those presumptions towards that fight outcome.If he rejected out a big offer then its a personal reason
and its non of our business on whats the reason behind that but you know people would always have a criticism everytime they do saw a particular event.

These are public figure, without their fans they would not make money, so it's always our business to speculate what are the reasons.. He was offered with a huge money and yet he decline, probably the win is more important that he can be proud of. Lucky or not, you are right it doesn't matter because a win is a win and we should give that to Marquez as as respect to him.

Majority does see that Pacquiao is much better than Marquez which i do agree.

Which I do not,.... Pacquiao is obviously better than Marquez in overall. Hello, he is an 8th division world champion, no one has achieved that yet.

He is a legend.

He already wins over Manny, that is a huge achievement he has in the field of boxing. He proves to the public that he is better than Manny at that time and he doesn't want to change that look. That is really too far from getting into a fight again, not even Manny ask for a rematch unlike before when both of them are still very active in boxing.

Two old heads in boxing going for an exhibition match sounds like fun. I do not expect explosive power from these two anymore since they're way past their prime (especially Marquez) though I still expect to see a good bout especially on their footwork and how they carry themselves in the ring. In terms of raw power, I'd place my bet on Cotto. He's a good all-rounder too, and excels mostly on speed. A good match, I should say, and perhaps a good match to throw a couple bucks at and just enjoy the show.

Almost all people who do made up some post on this thread do look negatively for these kind of exhibition fights but it turns out to be totally opposite for you and youre enjoying it instead.
When it comes to power then i would really be favoring Cotto but i cant really just ignore on how well Marquez is even though this is an exhibition match and theyre already past
their prime but this one would be entertaining but i do agree with people words on here that exhibition matches becomes the trend now.

It depends on the exhibition fight itself, for example when I heard of the exhibition fight that Mayweather wanted to have and the price he wanted to charge for it I thought it was a total scam, no one on his right mind would pay to see such a boring and unequal fight, but in this case, we are going to watch two former world champions that were at the top back in the day, so even if they are not as good as they were before this should still be a good fight.

Two legend in a exhibition match.. For sure this will become a very interesting event to watch. I know most of the ppl will choose cotto because marquez is too old for him and already done on this sport . But guys dont underestimate the power of dinamita.. just like what happened to pacman. This game will end in just a blink of an eye if cotto didn't take this match seriously. Just saying lol..

Yeah I still recall that exchanging heavy punch between Pacman and Dinamita,

In everyone's eyes it's like Pacman almost winning that fight but suddenly a punch coming from nowhere hit him and it's really solid
to knock him down, That's past and will always remember by everyone who love watching this sport, kind of endurance and determinations
that how big the heart of Dinamita!

That's the fight that made Pacman more matured, look at the way he fight now, he is not so aggressive anymore but he throwing more calculated punhes, his KO rate has gone down but he is still impessive in all of his wins. If Marquez gave a rematch to Manny it should be a big fight but he choose to retire and put the win as his big achievement in his boxing career.

He will destroy his record if he fight back Pacman again since we know how great fighter even if he's old and he knows that he cannot win with him if he decide to fight him back. We know the last time they see each other on the ring Pacman got the advantage but unfortunately he was been hit by lucky solid punch of Marquez.

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.
