    I'll be pumped up for all the same except for PBF/Pacquiao, that would be insane.

    About the money, JMM and his people wouldn't have agreed if they thought they deserved more or would have mentioned it at least. People make it sound like JMM is being screwed when JMM his self didn't say a SINGLE thing that would confirm this. If he's happy with what he's getting then what's the problem?. He has two hands and two legs like Mayweather does and I'm sure he believes he can win this fight, this 4-1 bull**** means nothing in the boxing ring as proven countless times.

    You are one of the posters who were leaping in the air buttnaked in full support of Margarito being called the "most feared beast on the planet". You think I would waste time responding to someone like you properly?, you fall in the clown category and drown there with many others like you.

    This fight is already losing money... Take the 24/7 production costs, some segments were already finished since they're about to show the first episode when Floyd Jr. got injured... The promotional tour in London (of all places why London?) and to other US major cities... That's a lot of costs/expenses...

    If the fight is not selling well, better pull out the plug to minimize loses...

    Yeah JMM could be very happy to get the highest purse in his boxing career... For JMM, why not give this fight a shot even if others sees it as an unfair, mismatch fight or just a tune-up fight... Anyway Floyd Jr. is not known as a destructive boxer that beats his opponents to pulp... Floyd Jr. will be happy to secure a boring safe wide UD victory most of the time... JMM is generally safe in this fight if you're looking for a brutal beating...

    JMM is also way smarter and has more skills than Hatton to be KO'ed by Floyd Jr. in the same way...

    Floyd cant sell fights unless the public genuinly think he has a chance to loose....

    Nobody thinks hes going to loose this...(although there is a TINY possibility he could)

    So....THE FIGHT WONT SELL!

    SO....15 million is 2 much IMHO....

    I dont even think he was guarenteed that against oscar!

    JMM wouldn't take it if winning wasn't his main option/goal or if he didn't know he can win. Fans might look at this fight like it's a circus or a joke like they looked at Pac/DLH, fighters don't pay attention to nonsense like that.

    This won't be an easy fight whether it happens or not. JMM is no joke to be easy for ANYONE not even Mayweather. It's natural ability that carries you when you move up in weight and try to dominate bigger guys and JMM proves what kind of heart/balls he has by taking this. I wish he got more money too that even if he wins I won't be pissed, that's how far I'll admit it being a fan of his too but seeing that he's happy with the amount he's getting it's all good.

    Of course JMM thinks he has a chance to win this fight... Even if I consider this a tune-up fight, I still give JMM 0.01% chance of winning... You can't totally write off a boxer... Every boxer has a chance as long as they throw punches... I can easily symphatize with JMM fans since I'm a fan of Pacquiao and I picked him to win against Dela Hoya... You can just imagine the ridicule thrown to those who picked PAC to defeat Hoya... It's the same here but I have yet to see a JMM fan so confident that JMM will defeat PBF... JMM has a chance tho...

    As I've said in earlier post, JMM doesn't need to worry much about Floyd since Floyd Jr. most of the time will be contented to coast to a safe boring wide UD win... This scenario is highly probable since both are master counterpunchers and it's possible they will just wait on each other on who will throw first... a tactical chess match waiting game...

    Oh I know the insults/laughter everyone got for picking DLH, I was one of them and some of the old threads digged up show it. I've had discussions with friends as well who thought I was being insane picking Pac over DLH, though the Pinoy friends loved every minute of it. :lol:

    I would like to see how BOTH guys perform in this fight, this is a major thing for me. Forget about Mayweather's past performances, all could change as this is his FIRST long layoff and he's going in against someone in Marquez' size YET with a size advantage over him. For all you know he could be standing flat footed and trading because the movement might not be there, maybe stamina issues, change in his speed and so on. JMM is smaller so being faster MIGHT be the case in this one and that could trouble Mayweather, the real question is will he have power behind them?, too many interesting questions/points to look forward to. No, this isn't the best fight to make for Mayweather but it's not totally crap either, I want to see how both deal with each other.
