In one of the year?s more intriguing bouts, former bantamweight and junior featherweight champion Rafael Marquez faces off with WBO featherweight king Juan Manuel Lopez at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada. The contest was originally scheduled for September 18th before Marquez would injure his hand, forcing a postponement of the bout. Marquez? injury is now reportedly healed and he was spotted this week training in Mexico City under the tutelage of former champion Daniel Zaragoza.
