Floyd fans can justify the size difference whatever way they want but fact remains, JMM is smaller than Floyd... - JMM is also slower than Floyd - JMM is also older than Floyd - JMM is also weaker than Floyd - JMM is also lesser skilled than Floyd - JMM is shorter than Floyd - Floyd has 5 inches reach advantage over JMM - ETC. Floyd is the heavy 4 to 1 favorite to defeat JMM... All of the above is what makes this fight a tuneup fight, a mismatch fight... .
True! And this will be one of the biggest upsets if JMM beats the **** out of Floyd. Although, I still don't see it happening.
Pac is not as strong as Floyd Pac is smaller than Floyd Pac is weaker than Floyd Pac is shorter than Floyd Pac is lesser skilled than Floyd Floyd has a 5 inch reach advantage (LOL WAY TO MEASURE BY wingspan buxzer atsch) Pac-Floyd should not happen then. atschatschatschatschatschatschatschatschatsch
This thing has been promoted horribly to be labeled as a mega fight. The fake rib injury was a desperate ploy to save it. Im a more avid fan of boxing than MMA but if it wasnt for the undercard I would of probably watched UFC 103 instead. PPV numbers are now riding on the heels of the success of 24/7, if there is no entertainment or drama whatsoever this fight could be a bust according to mega fight standards.
We will talk about PAC vs. Floyd fight if it gets made... One thing is sure tho, PAC enjoys some advantages over Floyd... I'll expand on that later... Now back to the topic eze, it's Floyd vs. JMM tuneup, mismatch fight discussion... .
Stop going out of your way to discredit floyd you stupid pac nut hugger. You know there's more fighters than just Pac right? Oh wait, if Pac didn't exist, you wouldn't even be on this forum.atsch Stop using wingspan as a measurement of reach. 5 inch reach advantage. atsch EDIT - The only reason you use it, is too exaggerate things.
Call it "wingspan" or call it "reach" (BoxRec called it reach), it's a fact Floyd has longer arms, longer armpit to knuckle measurement, longer armpit to fingertips measurement than JMM... You want to refute that moron? .
And JMM has a thicker chest, larger biceps, forearms and fists. Mayweather has a larger lower body, but the upper body is pretty much even. Could you tell the difference between a guy who is 5'8 147lbs to a guy who is 5'7 142 pounds in person?
Reach is only one of the factors and clearly it's in favor for Floyd... Skills maybe the main factor... But how about you combine all these factors?? - JMM is smaller than Floyd - JMM is also slower than Floyd - JMM is also older than Floyd - JMM is also weaker than Floyd - JMM is also lesser skilled than Floyd - JMM is shorter than Floyd - Floyd has 5 inches reach advantage over JMM - ETC. Do you agree we have a mismatch fight here?? Floyd almost have all the advantages... Floyd is 4 to 1 heavy favorite... .
Take out older, and you basically have Miguel Cotto and about half the welterweight division. I dont think its a mismatch no. SHould floyd be the heavy favorite? Yes. SHould it be considered an unwinnable fight for Marquez? No.
Pac is a short light weight boxer. Floyd is a welter weight boxer. Pac would be in big disadvantage against Mayweather.
No no, Cotto is not smaller than Floyd and not weaker than Floyd... Hope you see that... Both of us already agreed that this is a tuneup fight... Just don't be shy accepting that this is also a mismatch fight... Floyd has all the advantages... There's no unwinnable fight in boxing... Every boxer has a chance to win as long as that boxer throw a punch...
:-( You get my point though. Floyd due to his abilities olds considerable advantages over ever fighter in the division. Infact, I'd give Marquez a better chance against Floyd then Berto, Collazo, and Hlatshwayo. Probably a few others in the top 10 aswell. I said it was a fight to see where Mayweathers skills are at and that Marquez is a tough enough fighter who will cause Floyd enough problems to guage where his career at. If you take that to mean "tuneup" thats you.
JMM will be used to gauge the present skill level of Floyd... then it's a tuneup fight... Plus you said this before; "Perfect tune up for Pacs ass whippin." I thought we already in agreement that this is a tuneup fight for Floyd... .
