    A is greater than B. B is almost equal to C. Therefore, A will beat C. Sorry, it doesn't work like that.

    The simple truth is that Floyd is afraid of Pac. Floyd's excuse is that he is on vacation! You can't even fault Floyd for doing that. :-(

    When you dominate JMM, it is a good win period. Regardless of weight. Maybe Pacturds are upset Floyd dominated JMM while Dapidran had such struggles with him?

    Mayweather won the fight on skill, not size.

    Floyd is definitely a better boxer than Marquez.

    But Floyd was just such a bitchass for making Marquez come up 2 weight divisions, and then Floyd coming in over the agreed weight limit.

    Floyd knew (we all knew) that Marquez wasn't gonna be the REAL Marquez.

    Meaningless win...

    You misunderstood almost as bad as arsabs did.

    BigReg wasn't using mere ABC logic.

    The counter to ABC logic is always that "styles make fights". BigReg wasn't simply saying "Mayweather > Marquez ≈ Pacquiao", he was saying "Mayweather's style is similar to Marquez's (but better executed) and that style has bothered Pacquiao when employed by a smaller and less technically gifted boxer".

    Marquez agreed to move up 2 weights blaim him

    Floyd hadnt fought in a year this guy was the p4p 2 in the world and this is his tune up fight

    and he won without difficulty

    Don't act smart. I know what you want to say. What I did not include in my analogy is that you want to say that A and B have similar style. Similar or not, it still doesn't work that way. Since they still have their differences. If you don't get it, I'm sorry for you. Do you know what will happen if JMM and Pac meet at 146lbs?

    Correction: What will happen if JMM weighs 144lbs at weigh in and Pac weighs 146lbs at weigh in?

    But you did not give your comment about faulting Floyd for taking a vacation instead of fighting Pac this November.

    Read my comment above. I did not misunderstand what he said. It's you and Bigreg who don't understand what I'm saying.

    Why not? Why is there a commonly used expression in boxing that goes,"styles make fights" if it doesn't work that way? As far as Floyd not fighting in Nov., that's completely irrelevant to the conversation at hand.

    "Not much value..." upto "Dishonorable..." over 60% at the moment.
