    he could make in intersting,but thier youthfull legs and speed with thier superior reach and height might defeat him.

    but certantly give it a go for sure.cant totally rule out a legend when hes agaisnt mere mortals.

    i think he could do bad things to bradley!.

    same time,if he weighed 145 for katsidis on the night of the fight,him vs pac at welter could be made,as pac weighed 145 for his "super" welterweight fight with margarito,and only 148 on the night.

    but i think pac has too much speed and has improved too much for a slower older welterweight marquez.

    That is not what Bob Arum and Freddie Roach have been saying lately. They say the fight will never happen because Marquez is to small for welter. http://www.***********.com/?m=show&id=34705. So I guess I was right about all of the other stuff I said huh?

    Neither of them did anything, but Mosley hurt Mayweather. Marquez had no competitive rounds, he was pushing his punches, looked like **** and had nothing for Floyd. I didn't see Floyd ''hit cleanly'' at all, so quit making **** up.

    Marquez did not win a round against Floyd, Shane took the early rounds.

    :deal Even though I agree JMM was more active vs Floyd than Shane was, Shane is just too big, too strong for JMM at ww. There is a reason why Roach and company don't want to fight JMM under 147. 140 JMM is a huge threat to any of the top dawgs there because they simply are not Floyd. Floyd looked physically bigger than ever before, even bigger to the supposedly stronger Mosley. Floyd looked more like a JMW when he fought both JMM and Mosley.

    JMM can be devastating above 140. he rehydrates at a weight almost like pacquiao. IMO the worst thing jmm have done is that he bulked up so much (weight training made him sluggish) and first of all, jmm is way out of floyd's league. thanks to floyd, he challenged (or accepted the challenge if you want to call it like that) little juan for a 147 fight, and even cheated!

    You're delusional! :lol: JMM was getting hit a lot at 135 when he fought J. Diaz, Casamayor, and Katsidis. He is slow at 135. He will be at a great disadvantage at 140. Of course he decides to move up to 140 and win spectacularly then he'll prove his critics wrong.

    How many fighters in 140-up has Marquez fought after Floyd just to support your nebulous contention? Marquez hasn't proven anything at 140. Pac has had a successful run in 140-150.

    Forget about this crap about Marquez going up to 140. He's ****ing slow at this weight. Bradley, Khan, etc will kill him. Moreso with Pac. Besides, he's too slow at 135 already.

    The whole thing is that even though Pacquiao MIGHT blow Marquez out of the water, they have two razor-thin fights that tell us their styles match in such a way that Marquez tends to win more rounds whilst being knocked down. As far as I'm concerned, Marquez deserves a third fight. Now, whether he prices himself out is another issue... but I believe Marquez deserves a third fight.
