    I dont think you could give marquez a minute of that fight...

    Masterclass...

    although he had a weight advantage, and it shocked me how big floyd actually looked in the ring I really think he has grown into the division really well.

    thats why he didnt make 145 .... then when the pac fight is made he will demand the fight is at 147 as he cant make 145.....and floyd will have a huge advantage there

    was dissapointed he didnt open up more with combinations, he is actually on record saying that he should have thrown more combinations.

    in the past i have been frustrated with floyds lack of will to finish off a fight but around 9 of the marquez figh i realised this guy doesnt give a **** about the knockout he wants to get the win if the knockout comes it comes. He will never take risks to end a fight early. I think he just loves showing off his skills

    Actually, you could see him pushing for the knockout late a couple of times. I give him credit for trying, but Marquez just had too much heart to be stopped.

    Me, too...

    but with the way he boxed he could've been 140 and still wiped the floor with marquez.

    Hmm you could make a case for possibly giving 1 or 2 rounds to JMM. I gave them all to PBF.
    The thing that did impress me in this fight and i have never seen done to PBF is JMM landind a crisp 3 punch combo on PBF.
    Never seen that done to him.

    114-113 for marquez.

    Joking. what I mean by that is, it was hard to give marquez a round.
