    there is a reason why he did not want his fight weight to be revealed.

    anyone who claims that pbf came in at 151/152 must be nuts.

    Nobody knows what Floyd weighed so what are you all arguing about? PAc's fans believe Roach's sorry ass, and the boxing world has their opinion. Nobody should ever believe anything a ******* has to say about boxing. They have not been fans of the sport long enough. Pac is a fighter they care about. He represents their heritage. Most boxing fans love all types of fighters. *******s only love Pac, and half heartedly love Donaire. Keep it real. You can tell by a *******'s response when they post.

    Floyd's a weasel anyway...he went from fighting bigger men to smaller men because that is how much of a ***** and con artist he is. He is doing it for the thrill of beating up smaller guys, not the money or to get the rust off to force a fight with Pac. Floyd won't fight Cotto, Pac, Clottey or Williams. Floyd is too much of a punk, who's next Calderon. Dlh paid off a 6 mil dollar lein on Floyd's house.

    Yeah, Floyd did beat a lightweight champion, but that champ has been at the top for several years and is one of the best counterpunchers that ever lived, yet floyd toyed him like a ****in one dimensional fighter and won every round. How can you not be impressed? And to think Floyd never lost a step. Call it cherrypicking, but Floyds performance is still phenomenal and deserves some praise

    As of the moment, ill keep my mouth shut about the potential pac vs floyd fight. We'll see how pac performs against cotto.

    floyd only used his left hand most of the time during the first few rounds. he makes it look so easy, kinda like RJJ in his prime, albeit more predictable (cause he does not need that much offense to dominate an opponent)

    Marquez was definetely much smaller than Mayweather. Anyone can see that. I am not denying the fact that Mayweather has the better set of skills. I knew the fight would be one sided not because of the skill, but for the simple fact that if you put on nearly 10 pounds of muscle you will be slower and tire faster, on top of all the other advantages Mayweather already had. Its simple science. In a lower weight division this fight would have been much more competitive. Simple pay day, and Im glad Marquez got paid as well. Mayweather needs to put those skills to a man his own size and weight division. He did not make 144 because obviously he is more comfortable at 147. So his last two fights Hatton, 140lber @ Mayweathers weight 147. Marquez, natural 135lber made him come up as well and did not even bother to meet him at the catchweight. Mayweather
    needs to fight the best in his new division and quit trying to clean out his old ones while still enjoying his new weight advantage. Dude is highly talented, but will he step up and play with the real welters?

    Watching Mayweather work was almost virtuoso, but it's not a tall order to look brilliant against an opponent who is so out-manned physically. It was nothing for Mayweather to trot out all his tricks without worrying about retaliation. And that's exactly what we saw in this fight. In the main Mayweather toyed with Marquez and there was nothing Marquez could do about it. If he tried to attack he would've most likely been stopped and by laying back and looking for the counter he was picked apart. Marquez was in no man’s land and to his credit his sporadic runs at Mayweather did just enough to bother and keep Mayweather from really pressing for the stoppage. That said, Mayweather's punch can be questioned in that he just about hit Marquez at will but still never had him close to being stopped.

    Are you being sarcastic? its hard to tell on the net.
    In the off chance you arent,you cant compare the 2. Floyd went up and fought DLH at his own weight,and fought him a year and a half earlier.

    Now im a huge fan of both pac and money,but you cant compare Floyds and Mannys performances against DLH.They were very different fights

    Exactly, just as you can't compare Floyd and Manny's fights against Marquez. It's two different scenarios.

    Floyd was 152 about a week before the fight. You saying he gained an extra 8lbs in a week. Clown.

    Void wants to fight the flyweight champion next, or perhaps Christy Martin? Some people would be stupid enough to buy such a fight.

    Floyd didn't look a pound over 150 ... He doesn't weight that much walking around ... Why would all of a sudden would he balloon up against a guy who's coming up in weight ... That would set him at a disadvatage ... He's used to making the 147 lb limit so thats what he did ... The extra 4 lbs gave him no advantage.
