    You say as a Joke but is he the hardest punching cuban p4p we've ever seen?

    Hate to stereo type but Cubans don't usually punch like that. Most Cubans in the modern era are from the same mold as Lara and Rigo. They will box your ears off.

    Rigo could bang.

    I know that but they were better known for their skill and ability to break down their opponents. Mantequilla in Spanish means butter as in smooth as butter does that sound like nick name for a one punch ko artist?

    Casamayor could punch. In fact, don't even need to go back in time. Robeis Ramirez can clearly punch. And Frank Sanchez.

    El Cepillo could punch a little. Marquez demolished him. Don't know Ramirez. Frank Sanchez is a hw most hw punch hard. My point is that he (Morrell) is the hardest cuban puncher I've ever seen.

    Yeah I know some would argue JMM would beat a prime Casamayor. Hard to say but I think Marquez is a bit overrated after his ko win over Pacquio. It's annoying. When Barrera and Morales ruled the FW division he was struggling with Chris John. When he had the chance to fight Amir Khan his trainer advised him not to take the fight. When Manny asked for a 5th fight pussy walked away and eventually retired.

    John wasn't engaging a lot, moving away and avoiding close quarter battles. Yeah Marquez struggled a bit but I thought he should have won the fight. Not a fight I'd hold against Marquez. He struggled against lesser fighter that were there to be hit more than once, so I feel you chose the wrong fight to criticize him.
