Televised Undercard
• Cornelius Lock (19-4-1, 12 KOs), Detroit, Mich,, scores fourth-round knockout over Orlando Cruz (16-1-1, 7 KOs), San Juan, Puerto Rico. Featherweights (126 pounds)
(Cruz rises with 31 seconds left from first-round knock down from southpaw's right hook, left-hand combination. But after the taller Lock drops the stocky Cruz with another perfect right hook between the gloves, referee Robert Byrd waves an end to the bout at 2:08 of the fourth despite Cruz's regaining his feet at the count of 8)
• Michael Katsidis (26-2, 21 KOs), Austrailia, by split decision over Vicente Escobedo (21-2, 13 KOs), Woodland, CA. Lightweights (135 pounds)
(Nacho Beristain, also Juan Manuel Marquez's trainer, is working Escobedo's corner. Being outworked, Escobedo is asked by Beristain after eight rounds if he would like the fight to be stopped. The fighter continues into the ninth. HBO's Harold Lederman has Katsidis winning all but one round entering the 10th. Katsidis' right jaw is swollen, possibily broken, his left eye is cut. Escobedo is cut over his right eye. Judges Duane Ford and Robert Hoyle scores it 118-110, and, 115-113, for Katsidis; Mike Fitzgerald has it, 116-112, for Escobedo. Lederman has it 117-111 for Katsidis)
• Chris John (43-0-2, 22 KOs), Semarang, Indonesia by unanimous decision over Rocky Juarez (28-5-1, 20 KOs), Houston, Tx. Featherweights (126 pounds)
(This is a rematch of February's 12-round draw, scored 114-114 on all three judges' cards. John owns a March, 2006, decision victory over Juan Manuel Marquez. Lederman has it, 2-1, or, 29-28, for John after three rounds with Juarez winning the third. Dictating behind a strategy of jab, jab, jab, occasional right, and then clinch, John outlands Juarez, 25-5, in the fourth round. After six rounds, Lederman has John ahead, five rounds to one, or, 59-55, having out-landed Juarez, 27-7, in the sixth. Johns remains effective outworking Juarez from a distance as the latter continues to simply follow and fail to cut off the ring. Lederman has it 8-1, in rounds, or, 89-82, heading into the 10th. Juarez won the last two rounds, wobbling John with a wicked left hook with 25 seconds left in the 12th. John elected to continue trading with Juarez. But amid several exchanges, Juarez couldn't drop or finish off John, whose left eye was bleeding and swollen nearly shut, retained his World Boxing Association title 119-109, 117-111, and, 114-113.)

Mayweather is returning to the ring because he is in need of the money. He is bigger, but being off for 21 months and this being the first fight I would think he doesn't have the skills as before, but as sad as it is I would have to pick Myweather going the distance.

I suspect that Maywheather still has the speed, ring smarts & finesse to dazzle, confuse & tie up Marquez. HOWEVER, if Marquez lands one or possibly two solid punches early on... we may be in for a very interesting fight.

Is Mayweather gonna dance his way out again, or finally gets cornered by a real fighter with a punch? Unless this fight is fixed, and they getting him ready for Manu Paquio? Hi will definetly end Mayweather dancing winning streak!
