    Can You all plz stop bitching about the size. THey have the same body Marquez is a machine They weill weight the same. Marquez started a 125 Floyd at 130. Marquez is #2 p4p.This will be a war and if its not Floyd should get all the credit.

    BtW pac man started at 106 now that's a small opponent. Pac man is smaller then both Floyd and Marquez by far.

    It's o.k. to ***** about the size when Floyd is demanding the fight at welter instead of either moving down in weight or fighting other welters.

    It's not about what weight a fighter started, it's how effective can a fighter be when he moves up in weight, and Marquez has shown in his last 2 fights
    that he can't be as effective at these higher weights like he used to be in the lower weights.

    This is a glorified toon up.
    I understand Mayweather has a 5 fight contract so he surely will fight at least 2 WWs IMO weather will it be Cotto,Mosley or whoever.

    EPIC FAIL

    There are weight divisions in boxing for a reason

    JMM was a super feather all of 18 months ago. How long has Floyd been a welter? How long ago was Floyd a super feather, or even a lightweight?

    Everyone knows this is a tuneup with Floyd taking an easy fight (because of the weight difference) against a named opponent.

    I say again, EPIC FAIL.

    Weight is a weighty issue because Marquez has never fought in l43 and Floyd has been fighting around this weight. The question is : Can Marquez carry his speed and power by jumping 2 divisions higher?

    dont be an idiot, of course size matters but Marquez's skills will make up for that.

    theres obviously a size advantage, regardless they weigh the same at weigh in. Floyd gets no credit unless he KO's marquez in a pac/hatton fashion, otherwise he'll need to fight people his own size to gain my respect.

    pacquiao was a teenager when he was 106 pounds. for ****s sake, chris arreola was a light heavy as a teen. people aren't calling him a tiny heavyweight.

    Pac has already twice fought in 140-147. :nono
     
  15. He moved up and KO'd the Ring No 1 & 2, both never never been KO'd before.

    That's not being effective is it? :huh
