    he looks alot bigger to me.

    In fact he is alot bigger. MArquez weighs 134 in that pic, while Floyd weighs 13 pounds more. How can you say they look the same size? They are 13lbs apart

    Both weigh 205.

    So both should be the same size right?

    Weight and size dont factor together.

    Floyd v Marquez is a joke. Marquez is going to get ktfo. He's too small.

    No. Anyone who fights at 147 and comes into the ring on fight night at 148 or 149 is not a natural WW. He's actually more of a natural 140 pound fighter. Hell 140 pound fighters like Victor Ortiz and Hatton weigh more than PBF does on their fight nights at 140 than he does at 147.:deal

    I said Jr Welter but to be honest he fought Mitchell years ago at 147 so it might be harder for him to come back down to 140 now especially after this long of a lay off and considering he is now in his 30's he might just be a true welter by now.
