Mexican super star Juan Manuel Marquez, one of the greatest fighters in boxing today, a future Hall-of-Famer and a committed father and family man is 40 year-old today, for which PhilBoxing wishes him a very happy birthday.
Juan Manuel is now in full-throttle training for his tough world title battle against the younger, undefeated Timothy Bradley for the Welterweight World Title this coming October in Las Vegas.
At age 40, will the superbly talented Marquez be able to defeat Bradley?
As tribute to Juan Manuel - one of the most awesome counter-punchers in boxing - here is a video of some of some of his greatest hits hosted by HBO's Jim Lampley in November of 2012.
