    So Floyd Mayweather had 4 fights at 147lbs and 1 fight at 154lbs before taking on JMM in a "Comeback / Tune-up" fight. And Floyd was destroyed by any and everyone with a ****ing computer on every sports website (including some non-sports site), calling this fight a farce, over-matched and my personal favorite: "WHY IS FLOYD PICKING ON A SMALLER FIGHTER?".

    Fast-Foward to 2011...Manny Pacquiao has had 4 fights at 147lbs and 1 fight for a 154lbs title. Yet he (and his team) have chosen to fight the 135lbs Title-Holder...

    If you can't see the difference, you're blind.

    Pac is smaller than Mayweather.
    As Mayweather himself says, Pac and Marquez are "the same size".

    Both Pac and Marquez will be fighting at a catchweight.
    Mayweather made Marquez prepare for a catchweight, whereas he came in as normal.

    Plus Pac's not getting credit for the win, you can bet on that. Only reason the fight was feasible was due to their history and two great fights together.

    you're trippin. Floyd Mayweather fought JMM at a weight that he didn't even make come weigh-in.

    Prior to this Mayweather / Marquez, Marquez already moved up in weight, and then took a fight against Mayweather and had to move up and additional 9 pounds 7 months and you're criticizing Pac-man on fighting JMM at 135. At least pac-man evened the playing field.

    Besides, JMM has no business even fighting in the welterweight class especially at his age....

    Floyd performed fabulously against Maidana's leftovers. We should give him credit for that.
