Marquez is always be my Favorite as i will neve forget how he Knocked down Manny pacquiao as that game I lose really Big amount because I'm very confident about Manny's winning moment those days.

But in this Fight ? I believe that Marquez Time is fading and Cotto is still fit to fight as Younger days lives In him.

So this is Cotto's fight i believe.

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..

On my own, I dont like this exhibition fight because there will I guess a possibility that their fight becomes scripted and sometimes we think that not real, their making entertainment to people you have watched. They are just kinda making money and it will I guess not give their full fight because that is just an exhibition fight, well that is only my opinion.
There is no Scripted in talking about professional boxers because i believe that all they want is to show people that they are still fit to fight.

That's his personal opinion, and actually we don't know if its scripted or not, but one thing is sure is that the fight is not that exciting compared to a real or a championship fight. Exhibition should be way below in terms of expectation compared to a championship fight and they don't deserve to generate a lot of money.

I also favor too with Cotto here, since he is a younger fight he has still be able to fight and defeat his opponent quickly. Let us wait for the fight and I don't know how many of them will like an exhibition match.
Cotto Is my bet as well , because Marquez is already in His retiring Age.
Yeah, he is younger and I guess better fighter as well.

Exhibition fights should be like a real fight, no one would watch a scripted fight and fighters are not throwing heavy punches. I guess it's important that they understand what the fans really want to get, it's the entertainmnet, and in order to get entertain, the fight should be like the real fight as everyone is looking to these two fighters as their idols.
Just because you make the fight interesting doesn't mean that the fight has to be scripted, my point in that reply is that no one in the audience is going to watch a after school fisticuffs and as you have said, they want to be entertained so they have to do their best to make it serious but at the same time interesting.

Maybe the money that they will earn will be put on their respective charities. So everything will be good in the end.

That's boxing for a cause, I like that, but I guess the intensity of the fight will be affected as they know themselves that they will not get anything from the fight because it will just be donated to charities, sometimes boxers are greedy, they want to make more so giving it to charity is not usual though not rare.

We don't know yet if they are boxing for a cause, actually it's not necessary to use the advertisement for charity, they can just fight and ,make money, afterwards they can just donate to the charity, everything is done!.....

What I'm seeing here is they need a promoter and promoter will finance the fight, and of course, just like a usual business, promoters need to ensure they'll be in profit in this fight.
Boxing for a cause or not it doesnt really make off much difference because performance or fight would really be just the same.Its a personal interest or impression if they do make out
bet just because they are doing it for a cause but these exhibition fights arent something for us to be excited.They had already past into their career and prime.
This isnt something a fight where it can spark out our interest or being entertained.

If the entire fight purse is going to charity then i am going for a draw rather than selecting anyone to win the fight as that is the trend we are seeing in exhibition matches, if not i would have gone with Miguel Cotto to win the fight as he is a much bigger fighter and the fight will be promoted as  Puerto Rico v Mexico to get the fans interested.

I think this exhibition match will be just some warm-up-like fight because these guys' popularity is still there and there will be a large number of people that will gonna watch this. they will surely earn some money and popularity with this. If ever they have any plan to run for any government officials, they will get some supporters with this upcoming fight.
I mean, isn't that how exhibition match is supposed to work, yes you are serious but you also have to be entertaining, and they are guaranteed with money in this fight, what else could be the reason that they are accepting this exhibition match. Dude, it doesn't have to be political but you're right that they can use this to make a name for them in the political realm if they want to.
Yes, they should give the fans what they are looking for, to be entertain, maybe we see some close rounds, like are fighting for a belt or something. I'm not sure about any politics here, maybe both of them will run, but this fight has nothing to do with it. And this is all for the money, they can still make it at this current pandemic. Maybe the money that they will earn will be put on their respective charities. So everything will be good in the end.

Without protective gear, and if things go serious, the fight might become bloodied so instead of the supposed entertainment purposes that's why it's an exhibition match, it will now become a usual boxing fight like fighting with the title.

But I doubt both boxers will go serious so it's good instead to see them fighting without any protective gear.
Just because it is an exhibition fight doesn't mean that that they don't have to get serious, this isn't the Olympics so I think that a mouthpiece and gloves will suffice as a protection in this exhibition match, and they are also hardened fighters so a protective gear is an insult in my opinion to their pride.

Yeah! I don't think this fight will gonna be the last one we saw when they were in their prime like we used to see when we were young. I think this exhibition match will be just some warm-up-like fight because these guys' popularity is still there and there will be a large number of people that will gonna watch this. they will surely earn some money and popularity with this.

lol.. why everything has a political purpose? I guess it's only Manny Pacquiao is doing that and it was an effective strategy, be a popular boxer then run for politics. Macquez and Cotto are both popular in their respective country, they don't need to fight just to gain supporters in the election, they can already do it now as they have the fame and money.

they are better in the ring, they've grown old and built their career in boxing all their life. politics is another field, i don't think they'd last there unless they have the management and experience in local politics. Manny Pacquiao gained a local position at first before running for the national position but even so, he still didn't escape the war in politics. i don't think he will ever win the next election. the people who are in the background who truly run the country will just make him a puppet.

Cotto and Marquez may run for a position but their lack of experience will just make them unqualified. it requires a network of both sides like the DEMO and REP and then taking responsibilities for the decisions and the magnitude of it is too much of a burden. their rivals will just laugh at them. it's a different game than boxing.

Well, many people don't like to see if the fighter has a protective gear on the face or even a boxer wears a dress inside the ring.
If this will happen to this fight so perhaps other exhibition fight match will do the same which very awkward to watch at will perhaps not getting interested to the viewers. However, regarding this exhibition fight, I believed Cotto will win since he is very strong than the Marquez side --by the way, in which betting sites this match have to place a bet? And is there already an odds to them?

No, I doubt that they are going to used head gears,
^ Probably they will not but surely they will use large gloves to minimize the speed of the punch that won't give them a hard pain.
A boxing exhibition match like this is totally different if we compared to the belt competition, you can see that there is a real fight in the match because they are fighting hard and protecting their belt. But this, just only for entertainment, and probably the match is manipulated to them and bettors will probably at risk. Nevertheless, in this match, I am in favor of Cotto.
Even if the gloves are bit thinner but still they are aware that this isnt a belt competition which means that they wont really be giving out their best to knock down their opponent.

The purpose of these exhibition fights is to give out some entertainment to the fans but these fights doesnt really give out that much of interests knowing that they
arent giving out their best.

I dont know if this one would be having some odds for us to bet on because most exhibition match doesnt have.

The only thing that I don't agree is wearing any head gear, again,

It was maybe proposed because both Cotto and Marquez are still in shape. They just retired from boxing not too long ago so their usual boxing power is still there.

^^ I agree on some parts, specially about them not on any level or rivalry, or in a competition for a belt. This is just for their fans to enjoy the fight while it last.

The only thing that I don't agree is wearing any head gear, again, we've seen older fighters like the recent Tyson vs Jones, without any head gear. Tyson can still punch, Roy Jones admitted that he felt the power, but they fight without any head protection and I'm sure either Cotto or Marquez doesn't want any.

I have no idea whether there is a specific clause in their match agreement which states that both fighters are required to wear a head protective gear. There may be such a condition, there may be not. I guess it will depend on both of them. But I am expecting that the rules for this one will be tailored fit for old retired boxers who are more prone to injuries and who will probably suffer more should such injuries are inflicted. The rounds may be shortened, gloves thicker or more padded, etc.

We will see if there is something like this from what both camps signed from the contract! Looking from what the post above you, that's something to think as older fighters fought without any protected head gears.

It's funny as both fighters are not that old to think of something like this, they still have the speed and the strength to stand still
if ever that they'll been hit that hard, not sure if fans will buy that idea knowing this two from their past fights really got the balls
to receive a heavy punch.
