    Duran beating Leonard?

    On a scale of 1 to 10, 10 being Duran beating Leonard.

    Or would it be even better?

    by KO? it would be right up there..

    by decision...would warrant a rematch.

    JMM-Pac III would be insane...and I would want it at 135 for JMM's linear title

    Well depending on how the KO comes it could warrant a rematch too. Or if it's a ridiculously one side UD... it could be better than a KO. But still, If Marquez wins a rematch is definitely happening, no matter how he wins.

    JMM-Pac III My GOD that'd be fight of the century if they both won.
    :happy:happy

    It'd probably be for Pac's shiny new Diamond belt

    DLH/Pac

    something shockingly that cannot be explained but excuses are later to be found on Floyd's behalf (llong layoff,police issues, etc...) and considered a fluke of a fight for JMM.

    It would be definitely better than DLH/Pac though. DLH was past it and somewhat drained. Although a factor, the whole "drained" thing is exaggerated. So I do give Pac credit because he didn't just win, he completely dominated him.

    It depends entirely on how they look during the fight and what Floyd does afterward. Duran/Leonard was such a good win because Leonard was in his prime and continued to accomplish great things afterwards.

    well yes and no.yes it would be bigger because although duran was an underdog it wasnt by as much as marquez,seems like about 75 to 80% of fans are picking mayweather were as it was maybe 60% picking leonard and duran already had 8 fights at welter includin an impresive win over palomino,so it seemed like a more even matched fight,so if marquez won it would be more surprisin despit mayweathers long lay off. Okay and i say no cause even though mayweather thinks hes the biggest thing thats ever happened he is not as big as leonard was even a young leonard,also duran was also more known so duran skyrotted even farther so no matter how he beats mayweather it wont be as big when duran beat leonard

    he wont.

    marquez has been picked for a reason...

    im embarassed for floyd a 35 year old lightweight stylistically made for him,what a joke this sport is becoming when guys like this are touted round as the greatest thing since sliced bread.

    Couldn't agree more. Want Marquez to win, but there is a reason Floyd chose him!
