I personally believe next Saturday will be a lot different to the complete blow out that some people are predicting Mayweather will hand to JMM. Now, i'm not saying Mayweather wont win, i just really believe that Marquez will make Mayweather work a lot more than he has had to do in any of his current 39 fights. It could possibly be a war, its just a feeling im getting.
Are you kidding me? I really think JMM will beat PBF, I have little doubt about it. Many people who think PBF has a huge size advantage over JMM are idiots, really. Everybody will find this out next week when they stand side to side. JMM is a big dude, he is the Bernard Hopkins (at MW) of the lower weights.
Yeah ive looked at him in the 24/7 videos and he looks like hes carried up the weight very well, im not so sure about him beating Mayweather, it all depends how well he can get in on the body without being countered as he pulls back.
I think it will really be a competitive fight but Mayweather will win it. Even JMM's trainer knows about it.
JMM's a very good fighter, and I think he'll make it competitive. But the fact is he's never fought at this weight, he got rocked by Juan Diaz at lightweight. We'll just have to see how he takes those first few counter left hooks.
Negative he stayed at featherweight for 13+ years for a reason, Bernard Hopkins started I believe at Light Heavy then moved down to Middleweight. PBF doesn't have a crazy huge size advantages but he has the size advandage and the speed advandage and the overall skills advantage even with counter-punching there neck and neck so yeah hard to imagine Marquez has too much of a shot though he's certainly dedicated and doing his very best to prepare himself. Im a fan of Marquez I give him a 30% chance of victory but I see the fight playing out like Mayweather vs Corrales if the fight was made at a non-ludacrious defintion of cherry-picking weight id give him more hope but he spent most his career at featherweight because that was his natural weight at super-feather he was still fine but at light-weight though he had 2 great victory's but he was visibly slower now he has to jump two more weigh classes at his age and fight the best fighter out there I mean not every moves up in weight like Pacman actually damn near none It's hard to give Marquez a shot as motivated and dedicated and the fact he himself is a great fighter still **** is stacked high against him.
Doubt it. The way he put on the weight will seriously affect his speed. Like Mayweather said:''If I don't get a KO I'm not gonna be satisfied''.
JMM is a great fighter and i will be rooting for him. But he had a lot of trouble beating two way past it fighters in MAB and Casa i just dont see how hes going to beat fraud in a weight he never fought at.
My word... did you actually watch the JMM v MAB fight... barrera trained extremely hard and fought excellently... i give marquez ALOT of credit for beating this version of barrera
I wasnt taking credit away from JMM ,i was just saying something everyone knows and that is that JMM faced a past his best MAB and he almost lost.
People do assume that the size difference is the difference in this fight and automatically makes Mayweather the winner, in the end size does not win fights, heck the size difference between the two really isnt that much! Theres always going to be a naturally bigger/smaller man in any fight, no two fighter are ever the same size. Im more worried about how Marquez wlll deal with Floyds speed, reach and defence rather than how he will deal with the natual size difference, because the size wont be to much of a significant factor.
