Just read on M A X Boxing an interview with the Marquez bros trainer Nacho....he spoke on his thoughts about the Floyd vs Shane fight.....a potential fight with PAC again and who he felt would win if Floyd and Manny actually square off. He says he favors Manny which threw me off a bit....thoughts?:think
Brilliant Anyway, I'm pretty sure Nacho in the past has favoured Mayweather to beat Pacquiao. I can't find the interview, but maybe he saw something in the Mosley fight which he thinks Pacquiao may capitalize on. :think But I'm gonna stick to my prediction, Floyd by easy UD
Floyd handled JMM much, much more easily than Pacquiao ever did, or could. So I don't see how he can sincerely say that.
^^And JMM could barely touch him. Now he knows why. "Finish with dignity" son, 'cause that's all you have left.
It just sounds like sour grapes. His guy JMM gave Pac all kinds of trouble. What makes Nacho think Floyd can't do all the things JMM can? You would think of all people, Nacho would be the last person to possibly predict a Pac win over Floyd. It's all good though. I don't think you can go wrong by picking either guy. As far as I'm concerned it's a toss up. I'm not comparing fighters but this match could end up looking like either Mayorga-Forrest or Leonard-Duran.
Nacho has also emphasized that JMM is not a 140lb fighter, yet alone 146lb fighter. I mean he thinks Khan would beat JMM at 140, if he thinks Khan can beat JMM at 140, then you can pretty much tell what he thinks of PBF beating JMM at 146. He says JMM is a LW, better yet a SFW fighter...other people have put it into his head that he can fight at WW.
Well.....He saw the way that Manny took care of DLH and Ricky whom Floyd struggled with. So he may be basing his conclusion on those performances.
:deal True, he did say he would not let marquez be a stepping stone for Khan even with Khan's chin issues. Im sure marquez would differ on this opinion though, or maybe not after facing someone from a higher weight class.
