Ariza: Pacquiao is going to destroy Marquez

By Chris Williams: Manny Pacquiao’s strength and conditioning coach Alex Ariza sees Pacquiao being too much for the older Juan Manuel Marquez on November 12th in their fight at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada. Ariza, not one to keep his thoughts to himself about Pacquiao, had this to say at fighthype.com: “Marquez is going to get wrecked…If he wants to just go in there and go toe to toe and knock this dude out early, he’ll be able to do that. He’ll have the strength and power to do that.”

I think Ariza knows a lot about building strength and bulk for his fighters, but I don’t think he knows boxing at all, period. Pacquiao isn’t going to be able to knock Marquez out, even with Pacquiao having an advantage in weight with Marquez having to move up two weight divisions to take this fight at a teeny catchweight of 144 lbs. Pacquiao still won’t be able to stop the soon to be 38-year-old Marquez.

Pacquiao couldn’t even stop Antonio Margarito, Joshua Clottey and Shane Mosley. What does that tell you about Pacquiao’s power at welterweight? The last time he got a knockout was two years ago against Miguel Cotto, a pumped up light welterweight, and I don’t think that fight should have been stopped in the 12th. Pacquiao isn’t going to be able to stop an even better fighter like Marquez. That’s not happening, and he’s not going to “Wreck” Marquez or any such nonsense like that.

I see this as being pretty much similar to the other two fights between Pacquiao and Marquez, with Marquez making Pacquiao look silly at times with his counter punching. Pacquiao will have his moments but will struggle much more in this fight than he did in the other two because he’s losing his ability move around the ring. Pacquiao is no longer hopping around, and that’s going to hurt him in this fight. If I’m Pacquiao, I’d be on Ariza’s case to find out what happened to my legs. It might help if Pacquiao would stop eating a lot and focus on being lighter. Maybe if he weighed less he’d be able to move like he used to two years ago. I don’t think Pacquiao will ever be able to move like he used to. It looks like he’s aging and the first thing he’s lost is his legs. The next will be his work rate, and then his hand speed. By that time, we might see Pacquiao taking losses if he steps it up against someone like Floyd Mayweather Jr.

  • BokBok says:

    You can’t help but admire this Great Mexican Warrior. He’s got a big heart and fears no one. He’s about to face somebody a lot of fighters wouldn’t dare challenge. Some fighters believe he is into some imagined performance enhancing drug of sort cause he seems so invincible and so difficult to beat, actually they can’t figure out a way to beat him. So they just figure ways to avoid him. Viva to the great Mexican!!!

  • Ad says:

    What the stupid Chris Williams is still looking for on this boxing side,no anyone here want to
    see and read his paintful and annoying stupidity
    about the gretest Pacquiaio…
    What a shame on u Chris, how big face u must have to come and write here just to burn urself down all the time,
    you are just a burning disgrace of human being…
    and harmful for boxing,
    I am so curious when u can get at that point with your empty head and realize that Nobody want to see your articles here…

  • Carlos says:

    Lol

  • Carlos says:

    Pacquiao win a controversial decision again pacquiao had marquez down on the last fights he couldn finish the job lets see what happen

  • cuyucotmowilliams says:

    I hope you will stop writing and eat all your non-sense blab if Pacman K.O’d Marquez. But I learned you are a very thick skinned-pretend-to-know-boxing-red-neck writer who just want to fish comments just to survive.

  • BMX says:

    some says that marquez is too little for pac! marquez is 5’7″ and pac is only 5’6″ if marquez wants to put some weight like pac he can do it.

  • Promoter says:

    Pacquaio demolished Clotey and no match, Margarrito was send to hospital and almost loss his eyesight, Mosley was begging to quit!. All of them were big opponent that Marquez has no match against them and Mayweather avoided them other than fought Mosley later almost got knock down on the second round and hug to survive.

  • K.O. says:

    For all you haters After Pacquiao beats Marquez im going to have to take care of Pacquiao myself.

  • paul says:

    Snake oil salesman…..good job?

  • Inside Scoop says:

    The problem with this is it might taint Freddie’s career. I think Freddie is a great trainer but Likeitis is right, once Ariza gets caught it will blow back on Freddie. I hope people won’t be too hard on Freddie, but he will probably laugh all the way to the bank, and maybe he will visit Ariza in the Penetentiary once a year. Aint life interesting!

  • Clayton Bigsby says:

    Lets see the moneyline on both fights:

    Manny Pacquiao -800
    Juan Manuel Marquez +500

    Fraud Maynever Jr -675
    “Vicious” Victor Ortiz +475

    I would have to think pac is heavily favored. Ariza is stating conventional wisdom.

  • paul says:

    Ariza knows nothing.

  • likeitis says:

    Do you really think this doughboy Ariza knows more than the other strength coach guys????Please!! He is a steroid dispenser, period! Better get on the juice yourself Ariza cuz once you get locked up for the steroid stuff you too soft to survive…don’t bend over for the soap!

  • Jedi says:

    thats not saying all that much. I hope Pac is being tested and beating Marquez is not that great. But lets see what happens, I hope Marquez beats Pac but I don’t think he will.

  • polo says:

    marquez is too little and manny is too powerfull. Could be a short night. But manny does have issue with movement. Floyd played around with marquex at .142 pounds with marquez coming up two poundes heavier gona be a issue. If its a tough fight for manny could be a good thing arum might pull the tirgger and set up the manny floyd matchup.

  • simon says:

    what a 38 year old fighter can do inside the ring? in boxing assumming everything is equal, the younger fighter has a better chance to win, and this is a monumental fact. i think this will be the final nail to close the dispute between who is who.

  • Daniel Hernandez says:

    Marquez is a dead man walking!!!

  • Jammer says:

    Ariza is a fake. Remember this article when he gets arrested for juicing up his fighters. Have you seen this guy in public?? He has a spare tire like the Pillsbury dough boy, no lean muscle mass at all. That is how you can tell a fake. The guy is a juice dispenser, and the word is they are closing in on him and his BS game. Stay tuned

  • Reality says:

    @Dom, LOL! Manny’s Huge roided up head! Ha ha ha

  • Reality says:

    Manny’s going to win by decision.

  • Pac You! says:

    Ariza is telling the truth.The pee drinker JM Marquez was just too ambitious upon saying that he’ll knock-out Pacman.Only in his dream!lol
    If i were Marquez, he should drink 5-liters of pee everyday to make him strong and energetic.Bwahahahahaha!

  • The Boxing Guru says:

    Chris,

    Have you ever said one thing positive about the best P4P boxer in the world, Manny Pacquiao? Just curious..

  • Keep it 100 says:

    Pacquiao is on a whole new level compared to the last time they fought. Marquez better have a good game plan and b sharp otherwise he’s gettin punished.
    Mayweather needs u chris williams! And u need pacquiao.

  • BIG NOSE.... says:

    Ariza who cares! what you say. Your the water guy from the pacteam.cause you’re the one who mixes pedmans peds and anabolic protein shakes.

  • Dom says:

    Marquez’s punches will have no effect on Manny’s huge roided up head!

  • Dom says:

    Ariza & his magic milkshakes lol….

    Your milkshakes won’t help against Mayweather.

  • Dandy says:

    Freddie knows best. Alex knows just enough to make comments. Chris knows little.

  • Max_fan11 says:

    Manny!!!! What else is ther ti say?
    Manny to keen to mean!!!!

  • floyd fan says:

    ariza knows marquez cant carry the extra weight thats why they want to fight him dont believe me freddie roach stated this the last time marquez tried to move up and got his butt whipped by a guy thats pretty good

    handpicked just like morales 3 same thing only morales had to drop weight
    pacquiao is a bum c fighter at best and thats with the special shakes

  • OXO says:

    Ariza knows much much more boxing than Chris Williams, PERIOD

  • Foreal says:

    This fight will present Marquez with his retirement package, and nothing else….. but hospital bills there after.

  • lacem up says:

    Marquez can not beat Pacquiao at that weight or this age. They know this. This will be a good and entertaining bout however.

  • Mr. T says:

    Juan “the victim” Marquez is a mexicant.

  • Foreal says:

    What is Ariza shaking up there in the picture?

  • bri says:

    m arquez is a better boxer than pacman but marqeuz is comeing up in weight and didnt look good last time at welter. still hope pacman gets beaten

  • Anonymous says:

    Quote; “Pacquiao couldn’t even stop Antonio Margarito, Joshua Clottey and Shane Mosley. What does that tell you about Pacquiao’s power at welterweight?”

    I see it differently. All three of the boxers you mentioned are naturally bigger and stronger opponents, while JMM has come up through the lower weight divisions like Pacquaio did.

    Don’t forget that Margarito holds a KO win over the current middleweight champion Martinez.

    JMM did not look strong welterweight when he fought Floyd Mayweather. JMM is an excellent lightweight though.

  • tirahin sa puwet si chris says:

    nice article

  • tich says:

    Why is not Pac fans complaining that Pac is fighting an old JMM. If JMM was finished by the time he fought Floyd do we really have to expect much from him.

  • BIG NOSE.... says:

    Ariza who cares! what you say. Your the water guy from the pacteam.cause you’re the one who mixes pedmans peds and anabolic protein shakes.

  • Chosen one says:

    Its so funny how many haters there are here…

  • Ross says:

    Team Pacquiao only picks opponents they can destroy.

  • Foreal says:

    Packman wins this fight easy. The two are on different levels now. It is like asking Floyd to get it going with Judah.

  • Johnnnn says:

    Pacquiao doesn’t have one-punch KO power like so many people think. He flurries his opponents with punches and breaks them down. He barley landed against Clottey, he slowed his flurries against Margarito and he was throwing wildly against a retreating Mosley.

  • jose_bique says:

    to all Pacquiao supporters, do not ignore the fact that JMMarquez is looking to make things clear and he wants to kick pacquiao rear end as well, and certainly at the end of the fight every body will see this had happened!!

  • Ross says:

    Who cares what this Ariza clown says, anyway?

  • cornerman says:

    Chris, like your friend, your mind is worth only .50 cent!

  • prettyboy2 says:

    i got a bobblehead of pacquiao, it was blocking my view when i drive so took it off my dashboard cuz he’s got a big head

  • prettyboy2 says:

    special juice hahahahaha

  • pact4rdsbl0w says:

    Nice picture of ariza trying to cover what he is mixing, it is probably for pacsteroids…

    He is very sure because he is preparing a special amount of “special” juices for the bobblehead.

  • bano says:

    obviuosly this fight makes no nonesense,,,

  • balda says:

    hehe… how much will you bet chris? knockdown by katsidis what more if pac hit this guy he will be wrecked

  • Power Pellets says:

    Eat up Manny! We have to stop 3 weeks before the fight. Eat all of my new pellets that you can.

    Alex Ariza

  • YourMothersLover says:

    Pacman, will end marqueses career

  • the one says:

    we just have to wait for the fight to happen and wish that nobody gets injured during training. It’s gona be a great fight, no doubt. But I’ll bet my car on manny for this one.

  • Dirk D says:

    His legs are getting weak because he might be laying off the POWER PELLETS. PACROID has no real boxing skill just quick hands. If you believe he is a better boxer then marquez or mayweather then you really dont know sit about boxing.

  • Ok dude says:

    Dear Chris you can go in the ring with your honey Marquez or boyfriend Floyd against pacquiao and you know what? Pacman will still knock you out together in one punch. LOL!!

  • Blackie says:

    Chris I feel sorry for you just shut up ok?? No one will believe your story coz you were wrong lots of times ok?

  • Blackie says:

    Chris I know you love pacquiao so much admit it and I know you just want to write silly and rediculous story about pacman coz you know that the only thing people will read your column is when you do that right! You stupid moron. Hehehehe

  • War says:

    Did this dumb ass say Cotto was a pumped up light welterweight??!!…..u obviously dont know anything about boxing…..lmao…..n Pacquiao is gonna stop this man..even tho I like Marquez the truth is he cant hang with Pacquiao…..all u haters just keep on hating…..n watch manny agree to train in the u.s floyds gonna ask him to not train at the WILDCARD….LMFAO

  • Hindsight 20/10 says:

    chris williams – you are a complete mental case with no clue of the sweet science. And yes moron I’m talking about boxing when I mentioned “the Sweet Science.” Can you KO someone that is 17lbs more than you? I don’t think so!!! And to John – Marquez isn’t the best counter puncher, Fraud May-never is; you boxing simpleton. Your knowledge of everything boxing has been found wanting. Read more articles on boxing so you can make a informative post. Or not, and remain blissfully stupid.

  • Fan of Pacman says:

    This site is always hating on Manny.
    Marquez ain’t gonna last no more then 5 or 6 rounds
    if he wants to go toe to toe. Manny a totally different fighter now.

  • james says:

    What is he doing in the picture? putting some s&%roids in his water, hahah.

  • barry says:

    Again, Chris Williams think that Pacquiao is getting slower and slower, but does he think Marquez will beat Pacquiao? It’s confusing isn’t it? Chris Williams think Pacquiao is getting slower. He thinks Marquez is too old. He thinks the catch weight is to Pacquiao’s advantage. He thinks Marquez got Pacquiao’s number. Are we confused yet? This is exactly what this Chris Williams brings to this site. He blabbers on and on and makes little half truths here and there without really saying anything conclusive. What? Say that again, Chris? What?
    Your I.Q. must be a 10. Get it?

  • mao tsee tunga says:

    Lets cross the bridge first.

  • john says:

    What on EARTH makes you think Manny could ? Katsidis hits harder than Manny. You saw that result. No folks I’m afraid the end of the streak is near for young Manny. Marquez is the greatest counter puncher of modern times and you can bet he sits in his basement punching a wall with Manny’s face on it every night since their last fight. He’s the total physco-killer with gloves on !!!

  • john says:

    Floyd couldn’t stop Marquez !!

  • danman says:

    wrong my freind.pacquio is a much better fighter than he used to be.he will destroy the aging marquez.at 126 it was an even match up bot not anymore.manny has filled out and marquez has not.he is not comfortable at this weight as seen against floyd.he will counterpunch manny no doubt,i just dont think his punches will have much impact.i think manny can take him out with one shot at this point in there careers.i would be willing to bet on it.any takers?

  • Boxing Fan To The Max says:

    You Obviously don’t boxing and your on Mayweather’s payroll Chris
