    After yesterdays weigh in people(including ESPN) immediatly jumped onto the fact floyd came in over the catchweight. Ive read many posts about if he did it on purpose and all that. But i want to know if anyone has read anything on how marquez feels about it? Does he care? Does he feel duped?

    Im not here to debate whether it was a sham on floyds part or just a weigh in that a fighter truly didnt make(something that happens)

    I would just like to know Marquez's opinion.

    They probably didn't ask his opinion.

    I'm sure it does bother him, but he's too much of a man to whine about it

    He's used to getting shafted - its happened to him his entire career

    He'll just go in and fight his heart out and leave the bitching to us

    this is a light welter fighting a full welter,

    Marquez was wearing all his bling bling, those thick gold chains around his neck whilst he stepped on the scale.

    Without the gold chains, Marquez is probably alot closer to 141 , 140 lbs.

    Is that true? how in the hell does the boxing commission allow that? i thought that is the point of getting near nude so that you can get a true reading

    The commission doesnt care much of what you wear as long as they can see your bare body and legs downwards. And also as long as you weight below or exact the limit.

    He'll prob have to pay a fee. It's still a bull**** move on floyds part, 3 pounds is a big deal, especially when Marquez is moving up two weight classes.

    FMJ should be fined for being over the catched weight limit. It's not pair
    Marquez.

    I saw a spanish interview right after the weighin's on Marquez.......

    The question was posed to him, how do you feel with Mayweather coming in over the limit......and Marquez responded, "I'm going to talk with my manager and Promoter to see what can be done about it, but I dont think the weight will be a problem.

    ......Marquez did'nt like it one bit, but what can he really do?

    Reports from ESPN was that GBP changed the wording on the contracts the day before knowing that Mayweather had already let them know he was'nt making 144 lbs.

    ......the only thing Marquez could do is pull out.....but he's certainly not Joan Guzman of Diego Corrales to do that.
    Marquez is an absolute Warrior.
    .....he's going to fight, and God willing Mayweather pays in the ring!
