it doesnt have to be a full 3min war. JMM would've liked it. I just thought that as the bigger, faster, stronger fighter Floyd couldve brought it to jmm more often and possibly KO him but instead PBF kept tying him up whenever JMM gets close. I dont think JMM couldve hurt PBF, damn he looked more than 10lbs beefier.
Mayweather didn't want to KO Marquez. He told Roger that when Roger asked him if the fight is going 12 rounds or not.
It's called respect!
He said in the 24/7 I won't be satisfied if this guy goes the full 12...

thats BS. who the hell doesnt want to win via KO?
Floyd could have done if he opened up more, seldom did you see combos from Floyd.
But Floyd doesn't take unnecessary risks, which is what makes him so brilliant but also so frustrating as he doesn't fight the best if the risk/reward doesn't measure up for HIM.
"scared money" may could have stepped in for the ko, but even though marquez was getting beat to the punch respeatedly, he was landing any time he could get in close, and thats what scared money feared, you can see that...
No he wouldn't have KOed him. He would have dropped him a few times in the fight,a nd have been hit a lot himself though winnign a wide UD. The only time Marquez landed was when Floyd threw more than 2 punches at a time.
