    Wrong! PBF is the smartest fighter in the game not named Hopkins with the ability to adjust to all styles.:deal

    Does anyone have a source about this floyd bein in talks with marquez??

    I hope this ain't true cuz i like marquez a lot but floyd will beat him pretty easy imo...

    I shouldn't say easy cuz hes the #2 fighter in the world..but it won't be as competitive as some think..

    Now any links or ne thing to where i can see the source by chance?

    I would say this if Marquez carries the weight well at 140 he would be the best fighter Mayweather ever got in the ring with who is close to his prime. DLH old, Hatton not suited for 147, he is better than Castillo and better than Corrales. Marquez might be slightly past his very peak but still a great fighter and I would say if not still in his prime very close.

    Mayweather would be the best fighter Marquez ever got in the ring with too of course.

    I would say the complete opposite. Most think PBF would KO him. Marquez is one of very few offensive fighters that could trouble Floyd.

    Mayweather has never faced a prime Pacquiao though.

    CAstillo beats Marquez at 135. Marquez might edge it boxing against Corrales, but if he gets caught with the same flush shots Diaz caught him with he's out before he hits the ground.

    Hatton weight did not change from 140 to 147 btw. He came in the same size. The weight jump was meaningless.

    Castillo vs Marquez would be a great fight both fighters get stronger as the fight continues. Marquez might wilt under the pressure but Castillo does not have near as good of footwork and handspeed as a Pacquiao so he might get his ears boxed off.

    We have seen how Hatton performed as a welterweight before. He did not belong there.

    He beat Collazo just as well as Berto beat him. And again, the weight didnt matter. Hatton weighed in against Mayweather the same he weighed in against Malignaggi. He weighed more then Mayweather on the night. If Hatton had been fighting Margarito you'd have a point, but he was fighting Mayweather who is really just a light welter himself.
