I am a fan and aquaintance of Floyd Mayweather Jr. I just don't think his upcoming fight with Juan Manuel Marquez is going to be easy by any means. There is a speck in my brain that actually thinks Marquez will pull off a decision victory over the vacationed Money Mayweather. I just think this fight will be a spoiler with all the talks of Pacquaio vs. Mayweather hype happening. I know Floyd will not take his opponent lightly but the media is going to have to much pressure for Floyd to win in a convincing manner. Floyd must win by KO to really hype up a future Pacquaio encounter. That would make this fight bigger than imagined. I personally know that Floyd and Manny are friends outside the boxing business and attend the same church masses when Pacquaio is in the Vegas area.
Nah. Castillo was the bigger stronger fighter on the night. Castillo outweighed Floyd by 10lbs. He bullied Floyd, held and hit, punched Floyd below the belt, punched his back, anything to get at Floyd and wear him down. That is not Marquez' style.
i think think marquez will win but i think he pbf will look very ordinary ala victorina sosa ish this fight will make pac-man a heavy favortie if they ever fight to me... l
I don't think Marquez can give Mayweather a hard time. Marquez will be too fat and slow for Mayweather during the fight night. Unlike Pacquiao, whose body is made up of toned muscles, Marquez won't be able to carry his speed and power in the catch weight against Floyd.
marquez wins this unless floyd will fight him... no chance for him if gayweather will just runs for full 12 rounds..
FMJ i think will be the same as usual being slick, defensive and cautious. As long as JMM is effectively aggressive and doesnt get caught with anything coming in i think he can win.:bbb
Castillo's the bigger guy and hits harder than JMM but JMM is the smarter and a much better all around fighter and I can see him performing better than Castillo was against Mayweather. IMHO, JMM will win a close strategical battle with Floyd because of his ring smartness! PAC-JMM III is still on.:happy
marquez has a good chance to win if he can overcome the size/weight difference. floyd will probably have around a 5-lb weight advantage during the fight.
I do think that Marquez will give Mayweather a damn competitive fight, but not quite like Castillo. JLC was a vey strong and rugged lightweight who managed to impose his size advantage over Floyd.. and here JMM is a completely different fighter who happens to be smaller than PBF.
