Nishioka V. MarquezNishioka (38-4-3, 24 KO) is universally regarded as the world's top fighter at 122 pounds, while Marquez (40-6, 36 KO) is coming back down from a short and fairly unmemorable run at featherweight. He is a former legit super bantamweight champion, and a long-reigning and dominant top bantamweight titlist. At age 36, he's definitely slowed down a lot and isn't the fighter he was at his peak, but Nishioka, 35, is also a ring-worn veteran, though he's still closer to the top of his game. The fight could very much be about Nishioka's technique against Marquez's power.

I think we'd be done in time to catch up with the rest of the Taylor Gang and blow out the rest of the night. Thoughts?
