    Mayweather vs Marquez at 147

    Just wondering what PBF fans thought about this nonsense. The fight negotiations are stalling because Mayweather is demanding Marquez fights him at WW, despite the fact that Marquez thinks (as do most people) that anything above 140 puts him at a huge disadvantage.

    Anyone here going to defend that BS stipulation? And if so, why?

    I think it's a little selfish of PBF to ask of that from JMM, I mean atleast find a catchweight or something a little more fair for JMM. If not, find a real WW and see how he does there.

      Seems to me like PBF is either not interested in fighting JMM or thinks his chances at 140 wouldn't be great.

      Fighting at 147 puts JMM at a disadvantage, and fighting at 140 puts Mayweather at a disadvantage. What ya' gonna do??

        yep, Mayweather fighting Marquez would be discredited, it's just like Cotto or Margarito fighting Mayweather

        Floyd should fight people close to his own weight like Bradley, Pacquiao or Hatton

          At 147, advantage Mayweather

          At 140, advantage JMM

          143....get it done

            I think PBF is stalling, waiting for the results of Hatton-Pac, the option of fighting Pac instead.

                  A light punching Diaz had Marquez stunned at 135, so how is even 143 a fair fight?

                  Surely 140 should be about even.

                    It was JMM who called out floyd, he should play his role and be floyd's ***** if he really wants this fight.
