    He's fighting Pac at the same weight, I guarantee you he hit Pac more times then he hit Mayweather unless Pac can KO him early. The reason why he'll connect on Pac more is for obvious reasons. Pac is not as skilled as Mayweather when it comes to defense. It's not like Marquez remain at 147lbs from then to now to fight Manny. He's moving up once again and chances are in slow, bloated form. He's going to give Manny a better fight then he did Mayweather.

    Good win for me and certainly in Floyd's top 7 wins.

    I know. you know the term "what if" dont you? Im just asking you what would the fight turn out if they EVER fight on that weight. will they be competitive (im just giving Marquez advantage in weight, coz that'a all he'll ever have).

    I love JMM's style, but still Mayweather beats JMM in all the weightclass ive given you, specially the imaginary 126 PBF.:rasta

    I've long said it isn't a bull**** win, but it wasn't a great win either. It was a good win over a guy who was number 2 P4P at the time coming up in weight vs a guys who had been off for a while. Good win, not great win.

    So to those who disagreed with some of my viewpoints, are things a bit different now?

    I dont. It was Marquez' first time coming over the 135lb limit where he was already NOT looking like his old self. Mayweather came above the stipulated weight, plus the size difference and styles.
    lets not forget Marquez looked like he had his pockets filled with sandbags.

    It looks a lot better now given JMM's "win" over Pacquiao. Sure size played a part but Floyd outboxed JMM for the most part.
