    I think Floyd's counters were really gonna trouble JMM and he might have even scored a late round stoppage but I am starting to think that Marquez might be able to adjust to PBF's speed and power, time him, and we might have an interesting chess match on our hands.

    If Floyd is comming in thinking this is just a tune up he will get his ass handed to him. JMM is way too good to take lightly, yeah I think it will be a hell of a fight, at the end of the day Floyd is gonna be too big

    I have go give Marquez a good chance to beat Mayweather, but Mayweather will have his judges and referee to help him to win the fight. Marquez will have to knocked Mayweather out to get a split decision. Pac will have to knock Mayweather out to get a split decision for the same reasons, he could do it.

    The same thing crossed my mind. This has become a more interesting fight and I think Manny Floyd is inevitable now.

    I'm starting to think that we have underrated both Pacquiao and Marquez. I'm just glad to see two monsters in the ring during my time on earth.

    Now, lets do the reasonable thing and put them in the same space so they can destroy each other. (Provided JMM gets past FMJ of course).

    JMM has no shot at Floyd. Styles make fights plus we have to factor in the fact that Manny looks stronger as he move up in weight. JMM only does one thing better than Floyd. Floyd wins this by either tko or UD.

    I still favor Flloyd to win but JMM has got a shot at him. Withstanding what he did in the first Pac fight and ad******g brilliantly made me a fan. He's probably the only fighter I'd be nervous for a Pac to fight again. So PBF better come prepared coz JMM aint no tincan.

    Simply ****ing amazing that he didn't just survive being on the canvas against Manny, but bounced back to make both fights virtually even. Especially the first fight.

    I dont think much. Different divisions and different variables. I do not think Marquez is that great a fighter and never did. Just because a guy gives a great fighter a tough fight does not make him great. Otherwise Doug Dewitt and James Kinchen would be a great fighters because he gave Hearns a good fight, and Mugabi great because he gave Hagler a good fight. This might be oversimplification, but Marquez is not the quality of Pacman.

    This is boxing. If a fighter getting stunned means they have a vulernable chin then every fighter in history had a shaky one. Ali got dropped by Henry Cooper and was pretty hurt when he got up does that mean his chin was average at best? Of course not.

    JMM has been KD by 2 fighters in his carrer and never been stopped in 50 some fights. I would argue he has a very good chin.

    JMM is a ****ing beast. Hatton got stopped in 2 ****ing rounds. JMM went a full 12 both times, got up from knockdowns and arguably won both fights.

    Give the man credit. Think about Hatton was blown away tonight by Pac, and then realize JMM went 12 rounds with him twice and fought him even both times.
