Mayweather vs. Marquez nearly set for july 18

Omg just stop it dude. Mayweather is a fcking WELTERWEIGHT. Marquez is an FW who just moved up to LW.

What a total and utter joke.

If Floyd is a WW he is smallest in history , he fights WWs at the weight a Jnr welter fights , best you look at the actual fight weights instead of the title weight limits , what they weigh on fight night is real , your way of thinking says Roy Jones is a HW ,, its you that is the utter joke .

Lately I'm thinking Marquez is very overrated. The washed up Casamayor was winning the fight until a 3rd into the fight. Juan Diaz (certainly no elite, or legend) was dominating him, winning on the scorecards until the 5th round and if he had any power could have KTFO Marquez in round 2.

It's amazing how a washed up Morales was able to school Pacquiao with ease, yet a prime Marquez barely gets the win. (I did have him beating Pac twice on my scorecard)

After Mayweather schools Marquez, I just don't see how Arum and Roach are going to protect Pacquiao from his ass whooping any further. The public demand would be too much despite Roach and Arum desperately trying to tell us there are better fights out there, like the chinny Cotto.

Wouldnt u much rather see Cotto vs Floyd than Marquez vs Floyd?????

Normally id pick PBF anyday especially against a guy whos never fought higher than 135. But comming off a 19 month layoff and fighting marquez whos on fire right now....i dunno. It wont be as easy as alot ppl might think. Im actually leaning toward jmm on this one.
But one things for sure, its good to see jmm finally get his big superfight. He deserves it.

Id rather see Floyd vs Pac at 140 , thats the plan in motion I feel .

fighters dont make the weight during fight night and this has gone on forever. now floyd has an excuse for everything. if floyd beats Marquez its like he not beating anyone. there are weight classes for different fighters, but now floyd wants an exception on who to fight and in what weight. how scare is he.

Thats the point many dont want to see that fight. They want to play pretend and say that floyd will win than actually see the fight and start bitting their fingernails. If floyd wins they will continue to praise him even though they weren't sure at all he would win.

Floyd doesn't fight quitters who got TKO'd by a one-dimensional punching bag. I'd rather see Floyd smoke Marquez, Pacquiao, then retire Mosley after Mosley avenges his loss to Cotto.

(Assuming this happens at 147) Marquez is moving up too much, too fast for Mayweather to gain even an inch of respect from a victory from me. Marquez, however, will gain a ton of respect when he fights very competitively with Mayweather to a close decision loss. Mayweather will then go on to get his ass kicked by Pacquiao, who is at the position to force Mayweather down to 140 where he doesn't have a genuine advantage over his opponent.

You saw it here.

This is a great fight for Marquez. If he loses, he makes a schit load of money and loses no equity as he lost to a bigger guy. If he makes a good showing his equity goes through the roof.

Good fight for Mayweather, as it's low risk and it sets him up for an even bigger payday.
