He was the national amateur Bantamweight champion in Puerto Rico that year, his amateur career culminating in his winning the international Bantamweight championship as well as the United States' national AAU Bantamweight championship early in 1966, months before he started boxing as a professional.

Marquez began to box professionally on August 20, 1966, when he beat Alberto Jorge, who was also making his debut, by a four round decision at the Hiram Bithorn Stadium in San Juan.

This was followed by a victory over future Juan Laporte trainer, Carlos Espada (brother of Angel Espada) on October 1.
