Who has better chance of beating Floyd? Pac or Marquez?

Pac, simply because he is comfortable at 140 and even 145

I dont think Marquez will be as good above 135 especially being a few years older than Pac at 35.

Still i am a JMM fan and had him beating Pac both times and rate him higher out of the two.

PBF will beat them both

Pac has a better chance.

Speed, power and likely carries the higher weight better (seems to have bigger legs than JMM).

Because Marquez hasnt been tested at 145 and pretty much evewrything else others have covered!

I voted for jmm, and I posted this in other thread so I will paste it here...

For me personally I think it would be easier for Floyd beat pacquiao than marquez, Marquez is very intelligent and yes he is the smaller man in the fight but marquez problems comes with pressure fighters which floyd doesnt have that, of course floyd should be a large favorite and I do think he will win but Pacquiao would get caught in a ton of occasions by floyd just like marquez caught pacquiao and people understimate FMJ power, how many times did marquez counter on pac? Lots of times, now imagine those counter punches with floyd power...I agree with Pimp C, this fight would be close the first 3 rounds, after that FMJ would adjust and just outbox counter and win with ease maybe by KO just like he koed hatton, I am not comparing hatton with pac at all, pac is miles away from hatton but pac does the same mistakes as before he leaves just wide open when he throw the straight left, mayweather would capitalize huge in that, hatton couldnt do it because is not that type of fighter but mayweather? cmon mayweather timing is amazing , I see mayweather having more trouble with marquez because marquez intelligence in the ring is so much better than pacquiao, he doesnt have the pacquiao athletism but he looks in a ring like he is reading a book or playing a chess match, before he throws a punch he already knows what he will do if he doesnt land or if he lands, if the opponent turns right or left just like when he is waiting for a punch, just like mayweather but I think that JMM is a little more intelligent than FMJ in the ring, thats the only advantage a might get to marquez against mayweather, they are very similar, but floyd far more athletic with more power and jmm a little more agressive, thats why i think it will be a decent interesting kind of close fight but at the end floyd will win, not as wide decision as many people think but he will win ok, on the other hand floyd can explote so much more mistakes pac does, and yes you can say pacquiao is very fast and you can say his quickness is unbelieveble(which it is) but I dont think that would bother floyd at all at least past the 3rd round after he sees all pacquiao moves, fmj is just as fast as pacquiao so if marquez could explote all those mistakes pacquiao KEEP doing(which I think, but hatton wasnt the type of fighter he would know how to explote) imagine a faster, more powerful, with a better chin and a hell of a defence improve version of jmm(FMJ) can do to him... And i am not a pacquiao hater, I like the guy, his personality make me root for him but being serious I think marquez would be more difficult for floyd than pac...

The questions is who has the better chance of beating Floyd, not who between the two fighters are easier to beat by Floyd.
