# Juan Manuel López vs. Rafael Márquez

Juan Manuel López vs Rafael Márquez, billed as Puerto Rico vs. Mexico, was a professional boxing match contested on November 6, 2010 , for the WBO featherweight championship. The fight was highly anticipated due to the history of competition between Mexican boxers and those from Puerto Rico.

## Background

The fight was originally scheduled for September 18 but postponed due to an injury Marquez sustained on his right thumb. The fight was rescheduled for November 6, which was Lopez's second defense of his WBO title and was broadcast on Showtime.

## The fight

Marquez lost the fight in the 8th round by TKO after he was unable to continue due to a shoulder injury. Marquez had chosen to proceed with the bout even though he suffered with a right shoulder injury before the contest because he did not wish to cause a second delay. It was later revealed that Marquez had suffered a hairline fracture in his right shoulder blade during the fight and would require six months to recover from the injury. Despite the loss Marquez expressed his eagerness to face Lopez in a rematch.
