    Does Marquez have enough to beat Floyd at 140?
    That is my question for my fellow respectable posters.

    I consider their skill level to be about equal, both masterful counter-punchers but one is more offense minded than the other.

    I commend JMM's bravery in calling out PBF and he would most likely sign the contract but I think he is reaching too far on this one.

    Floyd would enjoy a speed advantage and for the first time in years he would have a definite size advantage.

    Does JMM have a big enough tool box to upset Floyd at 140?:think

    If Floyd had JMM's heart, There will be no need for this fight.

    140 is the most reasonable weight class for these boxers to meet of course.

    He has a shot but he wont beat him. Mayweather loses to nobody. Pacquaio would be his toughest fight. nobody in there life wants to see Mayweather at 140, he actually has more power at 140

    I don't think floyd can make 140 now and be effective as he was.

    The maximum we have seen Floyd has been 150 lbs on fight night. He should be able to get down to 140 with no problem.

    Floyd is not going to drop to 140. That will never happen. At 147 JMM has little chance of beating Mayweather.

    as much as i like jmm, he doesn't have a snowballs chance in hell. floyd would absolutely spank him.

    and if this fight were to go down it'd be at 143 or 147 so forget about 140 ya'll.

    i'd even
