    It would be one of the biggest upsets of all-time......however, it would be remembered as upset of the decade....

    Realistically it's not gonna be a big upset at all . . . considering JMM is rated #2 fighter and PBF is coming in from a 2 years inactivity.

    I'm not a big fan of Floyd as a person, but if you genuinely think he's ****, then you're the one who knows nothing about boxing.

    If Floyd never retired, the upset would be bigger. At this point, just the biggest of the decade, if even that.

    I actually think JMM has a shot, and come Sept 19, I will be in his corner. He has everything to gain and nothing to lose.

    He gets all the credit in the world for fighting PBF and jumping mad weight
    No one is expecting to him to win

    As long as he comes and fights with heart, which we know he will, he's a winner.

    Now if he DOES win, he just passed Pac as fighter of the decade, and will be forever known as the man that handed PBF his 1st L. 39-1-0

    I'd say very big. Not Tyson-Douglas, Rahman-Lewis or even Manny-Oscar big but it'll still be huge.

    I would probably sit there shaking my head going "...what the ****?"

    If Mayweather gets beat it will be a big upset. However the magnatude of the upset depends on what Mayweather dose afterwards. If marquex beats him and Mayweather go's on to win some more championships and beat Marquez in a rematch and rubber fight than It would be one of the bigest. If Marquez wins and Mayweather is never the same again than Mayweather's lay off hurt him and while still a big upset it would not be as big of an upset in my opinion.

    I don't think it would be a huge upset, because the long layoff would be a good excuse for a Marquez win, as well as his ability. Now, if Mayweather had stayed active and was defeated, then it would be a big upset.
