Whose more technical? Mayweather or Marquez?

[Sweet Pete]

You guys are so smoking. I admit that Im a Floyd fan but Im also a JMM fan and to me this isnt even close. What are all of you talking about? Floyd isnt that technical? Floyd is just all speed? Floyd's Offensive arsenal isnt that good?

Dude is one of the most complete fighters ever. How can JMM be more technical? 1st off he gets tagged clean way way way way more then Floyd. He always gets his nose busted up. 2nd, name one thing Floyd cant do? You cant hit the guy. On O JMM fights in a technical style while Floyd has more speed but that still doesnt make him more technical.

Floyd's O is so underrated on these boards. To me he's by far the most complete offenisve fighter in the game. He's the only guy that jabs to the body, his hooks are awesome, he has maybe the best straight right in the buisness, he can throw a check hook, his body game is severly underrated, and he has more power then people give him credit for.

I think its so dumb when people say that Floyd is based off all speed. How can you say that? Thats what seperates him from a guy like RJ. If Floyd lost his speed then he would still be the most technical fighter in the game. He gives you no openings and he can punch from any angle. He's great at a distance and in the pocket. You guys make it sound like he's some flashy guy like Zab. He's not. Dude is all substance with speed as the icing on the cake. He's very techniqal

Anyone who says Floyd is all speed is a fool. But if you were teaching child or young kid to box, you would show him Marquez rather than Floyd. Marquez goes by the book. Not everyone has the physical ability and overall capabilities that Floyd has to make the style he uses work.

Actually technical is setting your **** up with the jab, keeping your hands up... basically winning fights without athletic ability.

Keep in mind that technicality is not the be-all end-all of boxing. It is merely the easiest way to hit your opponent, but if a fighter can do it another way due to his athleticism, then he is probably more effective in doing so.

Yeah let's remember, Floyd doesn't use many jabs. His speed lets him get away with many right hand leads and shots that you'd normally setup with the jab. Also, anyone else tired of hearing people say checkhook just because Floyd mentioned it in the interview after Hatton fight? It's so annoying.

God yes!!! They act as if it's some divine punch.

That's not at all what technical means. What are you 8?

no, i'm nine. but seriously, did you have to insult me just because your opinion is diff. than mine? he has one of the best defense, he can easily makes you miss and easily land a punch of his own. if you're too big for him, he simply breaks you down until your body gives in. he is very accurate with his punches. he likes to potshot and just when you think he's gonna throw a single punch he throws 2, 3, and 4 accurate combinations.

Pretty Boy Floyd Mayweather Jr. without a doubt. If Marquez's technicall skills were as good as Floyd's, he'd be in the Top 2 p4p. Losing to unknown opponents like Chris John doesn't help his cause either.

who ever is better at combinations.
