    Look this is getting out of control.I went to the Las Vegas Hilton today to pick up my Pacquaio money and I asked them did they have the odds for the Mayweather-Marquez fight. They said Yes and gave me a sheet...I WAS LIKE HELL NAHH!! I'm a Mayweather fan but hes not a 3/1 fav against Marquez off a 19 month lay off, no way in hell. If PPL like Marquez hop on that price right now. I'm not gonna bet Marquez, I'll probably bet Mayweather by KO because Marquez does get hit alot, but a 3/1 fav is to much. If you guys like Marquez get on it now, just a message for you money makers.

    3/1 sounds perfectly reasonable to me. Completely disagree.

    I think he should be 5/1 even.

    JMM struggles against counterpunchers, Look at Norwood & Chris John. Consider Past it Casa gave him a tough time until he KO'd him, (hes not going to KO Floyd) and consider he's jumping 1 1/2 division to fight a former p4p #1 with more speed and power. On paper this is a mismatch.

    I however think JMM is a very live underdog and will give Floyd a tough time because of how good he is, but most definitely PBF is a strong favourite.

    I would say 3/1 if hes been boxing but almost 2 years off and you guys still think he should be 3/1?

    People are really confused about how to view this fight....

    yes jmm is a tremendous fighter all praise due..

    but there isnt one category of the sport that jmm is better than floyd in...like i said if jmm beats floyd it will be one of the biggest upsets in the history of sport..... bar none

    It should get closer as time goes by. I agree. I will guess -240.

    Combination's. Watching both throw it, JMM's are so much more Fluid and he can unleash them at any position at any angle...why pac had so much trouble. He counters with combinations too, Floyd counters with 1 or 2 shots then gets out. Even when he was throwing it against Hatton, it was good but each one timed and didnt flow as freely.
