I always thought there was no crying in boxing but weepy Juan Manuel Marquez has proved that wrong, so wrong. Now I have a personal insight into the depressive mood of the Mexican ringmaster.
Don?t ask me how I did it. I cannot tell you unless I kill you after I tell you.
Okay, I?ll tell you. I have an amigo, a musicologist in Mexico City, who was able to get into the casa of Marquez. Evidently Juan Ma has long been into sad songs, into tearjerkers.
Now, as his World Sympathy Tour continues, I thought it would be appropriate to list Senor Marquez?s favorite songs to weep by:
I Might Be Crying?Tanita Tikaram. 96 Tears–? And The Mysterians Stop Your Sobbing?The Kinks (also by The Pretenders) Cry Me A River?Julie London As Tears Go By?Marianne Faithfull Crying Time?Ray Charles Tiny Tears?Tindersticks Prayer For Time?George Michael Voir Un Ami Pleurer (To See A Friend Cry)?Jacques Brel Tears Of A Clown?Smokey Robinson Lonesome Tears?Beck Crying Song?Pink Floyd (not Pink Floyd Mayweather)
Got to go. My tear ducts are overflowing. Anyone got a hanky?
