Feeling in the best shape of his life ever, reigning WBA/IBF featherweight titlist Juan Manuel ?Dinamita? Maquez yesterday said he will fight ?poison with poison? when he tangles with consensus featherweight king Manny Pacquiao on May 8 at the MGM Grand Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas.
The orthodox-fighting Marquez (42-2, 33 KO?s) has also indicated that in order to beat a fighter like Pacquiao (38-2-1, 30 KO?s), he will have to match his strength if not better it, and above all be quicker than the Filipino champ, something that Marquez hopes to do under the world-class supervision of his trainer Ignacio ?Nacho? Beristain.
