    In the weigh in photos they look VERY close in height and weight. Im upset that Floyd didnt make weight but i dont want him to be weight drained and end up giving a lack luster performance. I also dont understand why Pac gets so much BS for making Cotto fight at a catch weight but JMM is a warrior for the same thing. This is a WW fight, why not fight at 147. I hear that Pac should fight at 147 if he wants the belt so why shouldnt JMM be held to the same standards. Most think JMM beat Pac twice so he should prove it! No complaints. He aint fighting P-Williams, its PBF who has an inch of height and 4 pounds. Thats just my opinion though. Again, I DONT AGREE WITH FLOYD MISSING THE WEIGHT! But stop making excuses in advance for JMM if he loses.

    marquez was wearing shoes, but he does look thicker than floyd. the reason for that is most likely because he has a bigger waist and chicken legs while floyd's weight is pretty evenly distributed but mostly in his legs.

    Maybe so but i just dont see that size advantage making a difference. The skill advantage will make the diference.

    yeah. at the very least the size advantage goes out the window with floyd's inactivity and jmm's activity. the guy just KO'ed casa and juan diaz for christ sakes.

    plus marquez is clearly carrying excess baggage at 142

    Void should fight Vitali or Vlad next. Do not complain about the lies that Fox News and Republican liars are making when you support the Void lies. Void will knocked out Marquez early as requested by the powers-that-be.

    There are bigger size advantages between people in the same weight class. Its not like Floyds going to come in at 170 like Clottey or something. If JMM is so tough he needs to prove it. Anyone can take a fight, but to get in there and get the job done is something else. I like JMM but all this dick riding is rediculous! He was at 135 and is jumping to 147. I believe SSM did that same thing when he fought Delahoya...without a catch weight. I know SSM was at 135 longer than JMM but not everyone likes to sit in one division their whole career like JMM, B-hop and Calslappy. He should have moved up earlier instead of waiting to chase Pac and he would be more comfortable at these heavier weights by now.

    and you forget marquez has spent most of his carear at 126-130 has had 2 fights at lightweight...agrees in HIS contract to come in at 144 has to work his ass off to make that 142 he did today, and was carrying excess baggage to do it too.....now hes going up against the former lineal WW champ of the world, who didnt even bother to make 144:lol:

    i dont have a horse in this race but i call it how i see it...

    Im pissed PBF didnt get to his weight BUT i still dont think thats going to have anything to do with the outcome of the fight. Floyd is not overwhelmingly bigger and im tired of hearing how he cheats and is a coward. He ****ed up. But those two pounds wont be the reason he wins but if he drained them off they could have been the reason he lost. Just ask Oscar.
