    Looks pretty impressive now don't you think?

    Anyone prepared to give Floyd real credit for the victory rather than saying Marquez isn't any good at the weight?

    no one is going to give Floyd credit as they would never give Leonard credit for outclassing Duran in the second fight.

    PBF has to be taken up to #1 spot consiering tonight's fight. Marquez tooled Pac and should have gotten the slight nod. This was a business decission imo, and all the *******s are just rationalizing it away. The contrast between PBF JMM and PAc JMM is scary.

    Mayweather also won't get credit if/when he beats Pacquiao.

    As far as his win over JMM - cue the *******s (of all people) to start the steroid speculation

    Except Marquez looked like **** at the weight. This time, he packed on pure, effective muscles. Greatly improved punch resistance, too.

    Mayweather should not be rewarded with the cheap mythical victory as he and all his little worshippers will be clamoring for after this fight. He was not the one in the ring and we knew Marquez had the style to trouble Pac. Styles do make fights.

    Mayweather came in at the full limit against Marquez, he cheated and that fight is still meaningless, it was not a fair fight going in. In any case, Pacquiao handled Hatton much easier than Mayweather did, and did it at his prime weight as a counter to any *****s trying to use Marquez as a baromoter of who is greater. Mosley also did nothing against Pacquiao but run, yet managed to hurt Mayweather.

    Pac vs Mayweather still needs to happen to determine the true #1. Ali<Norton<Foreman

    Floyd deserves his credit just like how manny gets FULL credit for fighting PAST PRIME WEIGHT DRAINED fighters Chicken CATCHWEIGHT is what manny gets credit for,

    Now were not gonna give Floyd credit? Its just another FREE PASS bull crap that everyone has for pacquiao, even the ******* judges were in pacquiaos back pocket tonight,

    Nows the time to rewatch FLoyds schooling of Marquez and give proper credit where its due, and to also be impressed with what Floyd did to Marquez

    Floyd cheated Marquez that was #1, secondly in that fight Marquez was forced to be
    an aggressor wile Floyd could use his own defensive/counter punching skills.
    So styles make fights and it seems Marquez is not the elite guy when comes
    to chose perfect style for the right opponent.

    You can't ignore the clear differences in conditioning between those two fights.

    Not to mention the fact that Floyd is bigger, stronger, and longer than Pacquiao at welterweight, and that such a size advantage helps s fighter both maintain distance and counter on the outside and muscle a smaller guy away on the inside.
