Sapphire Las Vegas once again brings you an epic fight on giant 100 inch screens. The food, the liquor, and the women are natural bonuses to the ambiance of this night! Marquez Vs. Bradley is a great match-up between two men of similar caliber, making it a fight worth watching with a WBO Welterweight title on the line.
Bradley is ten years younger than Marquez and has already upheld his right to the title before against Ruslan Provodnikov in March. It was a tough fight for him in which he was almost knocked out twice. This showed his true strength when he still came out the victor with a unanimous decision. This has left Bradley undefeated in his career so far. The real question is, does his 12 KO record hold a candle to Marquez’ 40 KO past?
Both champions have beat well known fighter, Manny Pacquiao. However, when Marquez beat him it was with a knock-out in the sixth round. Bradley’s win was not as cut-and-dry. Many experts would still say that Pacquiao earned the win in his fight against Bradley. The win was a controversial decision made quickly and therefore, many would argue, isn’t a well deserved one. Neither Marquez or Bradley will be taking on a re-match with the Filipino star any time soon.
At the end of the day, the fight is predicted to be seemingly even. Marquez is favored to win at his ripe age of 40 but not by obscene odds. Mayweather was predicted 3:1 vs. Alvarez and Pacquiao is predicted at 4:1 for his next fight. Marquez predictions are nowhere near those heights. Marquez is driven though and while he improves with age, he can practically taste this 5th divisional title.
“Marquez is a late-bloomer who got better and better… but they will never stop my will to win” – said Bradley about Marquez and his trainer, Ignacio “Nacho” Beristain.
Both men are confident and the odds are in anyone’s favor. Sapphire LV is ready to watch all the action in style at The World’s Largest Gentlemen’s Club on October 12, 2013 with the Starr sisters hosting the event. Sexy doesn’t even begin to describe this night.
