Even with 2 layers of clothing, JMM really looks small compared to Floyd...

    Nobody said **** when PBF whent up to 154 to fight Oscar and the size difference was bigger.:deal Quit with your crying man. ****ing log off and stop watching boxing. You're not a fan of the sport only a *******. You want this fight to fail and should be banned because of it. You have no credibility and if Cotto beats Pac you'll never post again. **** off.:hi:

    Skills will help a guy beat a larger but less skilled opponent. When both guys are similar in skill, size can play a huge difference.

    Yeah, what comes out of Floyd's mouth is bull**** of course but your mouth spits the truth!

    "Mayweather hired gang members to drive his own personal car(which everyone knows) to drive away and shoot random people in the streets for not buying tickets".

    And that, dumbass, came from YOUR mouth or ass. :lol:

    That's a good post but I have to disagree about Clottey. Clottey was a perfect opponent/test for Cotto, someone who will trouble him but CAN'T keep it up due to stamina issues. He was forced to be active against Marg the early rounds due to Marg's aggression and ran out of gas quick. Against Cotto he didn't have to be too active yet still ran out of gas when he did.

    The man clearly and intentionally used his head against Margarito, Cotto, Baldomir and Corrales.

    You can see around the 8th or 7th rounds he had Cotto ready to be taken and not doing much to block punches either yet he's the one running out of gas every time he throws a few punches.

    Clottey is a good test but a limited one at best that can't keep the pressure up. A rematch would end the same way with Cotto winning again in BETTER fashion if he avoids the same headbutt/cut. Doubt he will be able to avoid a headbutt since headbutts are also a part of Clottey's gameplan due to stamina issues.

    A Big good fighter will most of the time beat a little good fighter.

    It has been proven more than otherwise.

    It means something depending on opponent's style. Like if we say Hatton was the bigger guy going in against Marquez then sure it will be a problem because of his aggressive style. Mayweather doesn't use his size to his advantage and has made a career fighting bigger guys anyway, Mayweather relies on defense, movement and speed. He doesn't overpower opponents for size to be a factor.

    People thought DLH, Hatton and now Cotto will trouble Pac due to their size and their styles which usually relies on overpowering opponents and charging in. Mayweather doesn't fight like those guys for size to be a huge advantage for him.

    Larger or not, he will take a punch from someone that's weighed in the same as he did. If it's unfair in any way the fight won't be allowed.

    floyd should win by KO, but i have a feeling either ring rust or floyd being to safe will allow marquez to be competitive in the fight...

    That's true, can't deny it but it all depends on their fighting style. Mayweather is not one to take advantage of size and besides how many other fights has he been in as the bigger guy?

    Mayweather relies on defense and out-thinking opponents to win, he doesn't overpower them and blasts them out, that's not his style.

    Exactly! PBF relies on his boxing ability to win not size that's why he's been able to move up all these weights and still win.
