Marco Antonio Barrera, Analyzing Mayweather vs Marquez (ESPN DEPORTES)

now that were gettin close to the date he's givin marquez a chance now... i remeber early when it was signed he wasent so on marquez side...

i think when mab said pbf is not brave he meant floyd is not a risk-taker. meaning: floyd doesn't take chances with anything...

marquez is going to be eating straight rights and cheque hooks all night

good post but i disagree with many thing barrera said He also said mayweather its southpaw wtf its wrong with him ahahahhaa for those who dont speak spanish and dont believe me just look at his stance when he tries to mimick mayweather... that was so wrong Yeah I heard that, but he just looked confused on how to do the stance, the way he put his arm was mad funny.

Who do I favor in the inside? JMM. The mistake you are making is comparing brawler turned boxer MAB. To a predominantly technical sound fighter that is Mayweather. Marquez had MAB on the run. Marquez got overconfident, he paid the price because MAB is instinctively an inside brawler. The same thing happen in his fight with Pac Man. When Mayweather gets into inside fighting and starts to lose. He begins to fight dirty. Smothering his opponents with his elbows. Or he positions himself, to neutralize one’s arm, essentially locking his arm, through underhead dives from the opponents arm/shoulder. Not that he actually has the heart to go into a brawl, like MAB. Many have called it out, and rightfully so. Maywather does not like to brawl. That’s why he has the tendency to avoid wars. The real question is, If it comes to an inside fight. Can Money pull of these cheap tactics on a equally sound and seasoned fighter? Yeah MAB called it wrong. He claimed Money fights in a southpaw stance. And yes he stated, Money is not brave. Its his style, to be defensive and pot shot/cherry pick his punchers that have landed such remarks. I took it as floyd changes southpaw sometimes when he is next to the ropes which he does do

That is where the stance comes into play. Who do you feel has the advantage in an inside fight? the stronger Mayweather with quicker hands and better defense? Or the volume-punching JMM. Who was knocked down by MAB? My big concern in ths bout is to keep JMM off the canvas. The fight will be close on the cards if it goes the distance. JMM will not have the cushion to bounce back from a 10-8 round. OR, he will feel that he has to press, and he will be KO'd. Remember what FMJ did to Hatton. And Zab. And Sharmba. He came inside to stifle THEIR range. Toney and Mayweather are brilliant inside fighters. Who do I favor in the inside? JMM. The mistake you are making is comparing brawler turned boxer MAB.

I also found it interesting that MAB shifted to the southpaw stance when he mimicked FMJ on the ropes. Did you notice that? That isn't right. Floyd likes to keep the right hand back so he can come with that uppercut/overhand right combo. Then he pivots away. He said that Mayweather is a very intelligent fighter...but it sounded earlier in the clip like he was saying Mayweather wasn't a "brave" fighter. Did he say el no es valiente? That is the opposite of what Ignacio thought. Yeah MAB called it wrong. He claimed Money fights in a southpaw stance. And yes he stated, Money is not brave.

Is Barrera going to include JMM in the top ten list of his best Mexican fighters if JMM beats Mayweather, or is he going to continue to shit on him and disrespect him?

MAB should cut his hair, he's starting to look like Shemp. http://www.a-1video.com/Stooges-Malice-ShempCU.jpg

He was mimicking both. Now I am convinced Marques will not try to pressure Mayweather as he claimed. But bait Mayweather into coming forward. thats also what i gathered from listening.

Also, as far as the lateral movement he was showing the host. Was that suppose to be JMM or Floyd he was mimicking? He was mimicking both. Now I am convinced Marques will not try to pressure Mayweather as he claimed. But bait Mayweather into coming forward.

Pero mayweather va a cerrar la distancia. Rapidissimo. Marquez no podra tirar combinaciones asi. If Mayweather tries to close the distance, he exposes himself to Marques punching range. You need to keep in mind, that Marques is a puncher/boxer first. Mayweather is better off controlling the distance and pace. Thats how he picking/timing his shots with his superior power and leverage.

I would translate it all, but I am on my laptop. The key points, they are trying to make is. Mayweahter looks to control the pace, and counter by fighting defensively blocking. When he feels pressured, he steps back throwing jabs. (Nacho has commented on this). They comment, on Marquez volume punching. His ability to throw punches at any angle. His hand speed. And most importantly, his ability to faint/bait an opponent. He will throw 4 punch combination, and delay a strait right hand, or overhead strait for heavy damage. Cheers - Id

Marco is very smart. He is right you need really good head movement (Castillo) and come in. If you don't he kills you with that right hand and speed. Castillo's head movement is very good.

Very nice, thanks :boxing:

i wouldve love to hear MABs insights, i think he's one of the most intelligent fighters back then but crap, i cant understand.
