    Mayweather is great but he doesn't make Marquez look like a tune up. Thats just being ******.

    Marquez himself is a great fighter. He is the 2nd best in the world.

    Marquez is nobody's "tune up", even if it is a fighter like Floyd.

      Mayweather has every advantage you can think of and on top of that...Marquez's style will get him killed, its a tune up. No disrespect

        I cant believe I am actually agreeing with you but you are 100% correct.
        People on this site dont know by saying JMM is nothing but a tune up for Floyd.

        They are basically saying Floyd is on some mythical level that not even the p4p #2 fighter in the sport can be considered a real fight against floyd...when they are closer in size then floyd vs. 98% of all the welterweights.

        I mean damn, I am a huge floyd fan but even I dont go that far...
        to suggest JMM is just a tune up.

        JMM will give Floyd one hell of a fight because
        #1: he is very smart
        #2: He is not just a typical pressure fighter floyd is used to
        #3: He punches with his eyes open something that Even Mosley and Cotto dont do.
        #4: He skill set is very high.


        Guys realize what you are saying when you call JMM just a tune up...Please realize what you are saying...

          If you really think Juan Manuel Marquez is a just a sparring partner and a tune up for Floyd then you must believe with out a doubt Floyd is the greatest fighter of this era just like I do, but Only I show more respect to JMM.

          JMM is probably the 2nd smartest fighter in boxing behind Hopkins Until floyd returns..then he will be 3rd. But to sugest he is a tune for floyd because he isnt big enough compared to Welterweights like some people suggest is foolish.

          JMM vs. Floyd is a PPV fight and should be viewed as such.

          The only person who should be considered greater then JMM from 147 on down is Mosely, and Pacquaio. Period!!

          Cotto is not a complete fight like JMM and he is not half as smart.
          Hatton is not a complete fight like JMM and he is not half as smart
          Clottey is not a complete fight like JMM and he is not half as smart
          Campbell is not a complete fight like JMM and he is not half as smart


          Please show JMM some respect and stop calling him a tune up.
          because if he is a tune up so is cotto, berto,etc, except mosely imo

          because skills pays the bills in boxing.
          AND jmm SKILLS is why he is p4p#2 in boxing
          Listen, JMM has no physical advantages over Floyd and his style will get him killed. That is the truth, JMM is a tune up

            Marquez is too small to beat Mayweather simple as that. I'm not saying that If Marquez was the same size he would beat Floyd but it would make a much more competitive bout. Marquez is a small lightweight, At welterweight he would be tiny.

            Even still That doesn't change the fact that a fighter of Marquez's caliber is not a tune up for any fighter.

              Your right, Mayweather and JMM are closer in size then Mayweather and any other WW but listen, JMM vs Mayweather, P4P...I don't care, JMM is an easy fight for Floyd. Think about their style

                Genero Hernandez a great counter puncher (Who was bigger then Floyd) got F'd up by Floyd. Now I'm not saying Genero > JMM because JMM is more skilled but standing from a distance and waiting to counter punch is a big NO NO against Floyd. You can end up like Gatti doing that **** and its even worse when you got no physical advanatages over your opponent. The truth is...its a tune up, don't matter how you spin it

                      Thats true styles makes fights lets say mosley beats cotto in a close fight in the rematch and fights mayweather and losses it doesnt mean cotto cant beat money may i think he should fight both they both been waiting for it and both are harder fights than fighting the smaller marquez
