    Floyd making a natural fw come 2 divisions above lw (where he'd had 2 fights) (floyd comes in 2 pounds above catchweight) (floyd coming off a 18 month break)
    Pacquiao agreeing to fight someone 0-1-1 in his last 2 fights (which he ducked previously even at a catch-weight because he was to dangerous)

    FIXED.

    Obviously Mayweather-Marquez was more farcical, especially as Mayweather didn't bother to honor the catchweight.

    I can't really separate them. I didn't want to see Marquez-Mayweather by any stretch of the imagination and the same applies to Mosley-Pacquiao.

    This. He was already moving up 2 weight classes, ****ing him on the scales was such a ***** move.

    the odds for pacquaio mosley are 9 to 1.

    what were the odds for mayweather marquez? 3 to 1 or 4 to 1? somewhere around there.

    which is the bigger mismatch? you do the math

    Man I don't even know. When Mayweather vs Marquez was signed people thought that Marquez would give him problems because he gave Pac problems and was number 2 P4P. Pac is atleast fighting Mosley at his own weight but Mosley is shot to hell right now. Both fights are pretty bad.

    Wow! the poll results are stupid. Pac vs Mosley is clearly a worse fight than may vs marquez.

    Mayweather - Marquez for me. And by some distance.

    Mosley and Pacquiao are two fighters of similar size and strength fighting in the same weight class. No matter how much Pacquaio can (and most likely will) outclass Mosley, Shane WILL be able to land on him at certain points, and if he does there's always a chance Pac gets hurt or goes down. He has a punchers chance.

    Marquez didn't even have that. He had NO physical way of winning that fight

    Marquez v Mayweather...whether it was a come back bout or not.

    Marquez was coming up 2 divisions. Whether Mosley deserves this chance or not, he's pretty much a natural Welter.
