    Marquez is a great fighter but he is going to get beaten and stopped by PBF guaranteed. He would have been smarter to get a 3rd match with Pacman which he could have won. This is a step to far for him.

    How would waiting for after the Hatton fight have made a difference?????

    Roach and Arum have stated that anyone that fights Pac from here on out gets 35% of the purse tops, some even less......so how the hell would Mayweather have accepted that?????

    Mayweather knows that Pac is the easier fight for him, but he took the JMM fight for the very reason that financially, he's not going to let Arum screw him out of the purse split.

    If you've been paying attention, the Pac team does not have JMM on their radar!:hey

    In response to the thread title/starter.....

    Stop with the bull****, if you cant think of anything decent to type, you are aswell not typing anything until something worthwhile pops into your head.

    Please remember before the Hatton fight everyone was saying HATTON was the one with the power. Turns out Pacman was the one with more power.

    Mayweather signed the fight before he saw this. Everyone had it in their head that PACMAN had no power and was going to be 'bullied' by the larger Hatton. De La Hoya also said before the Hatton fight that Pacquaio didn't punch that hard (er why were you covering up then and quit on your stool, DLH corner man said to DLH 'There's no point in carrying on HE'S TOO FAST' CLASSIC).

    Turns out Pacman has HUGE power. Mayweather must be thinking 'what the **** have I done' The guy is like an asian Tyson he's a ****ing animal in the ring. When did Tyson knock a guy out COLD with one punch? **** I'M SO EXCITED for when Mayweather gets KO'd he's NEVER been in with anyone with Pac's speed and power. NEVER.

    With Mayweather it's all about 'show' and 'image manipulation' His resume looks good on paper but as soon as you analyse it you realise he's fought much smaller men. He fought DLH who was his size but DLH took him to a SPLIT DECISION. The Marquez bout is the same thing 'CLEVER MARKETING'. On paper you think **** he's fighting the P4P number 2 in his warm up fight. BUT MARQUEZ IS TWO WEIGHT DIVISIONS BELOW HIM AND A TOTAL MISMATCH. THIS FIGHT IS A JOKE AND A MARKETING PLOY.

    What the hell is his bull****. Floyd has been fighting bigger fighters his whole career. Name one fighter that Floyd fought in his entire career that was smaller then him. CAstillo ****ing weighed in at welterweight when he fought Floyd at 135. You're clueless kid. Beat it.

    Floyd has only had a year lay off + the few months this year. It's not a big deal.

    So by your reckoning the De La Hoya and Hatton fights were also mismatches and marketing ploys - except these mismatches put your man Pac on the map so what's your beef?

    Oh and STOP SHOUTING! Noob.

    I don't particularly care for Floyd's attitude however, he is aa marvelous talent who would probably beat any fighter in the world. I just want to know what all of these new Pacquiao fans are going to say after Floyd beats him.
