Mayweather vs. Marquez on July 18 - Two Pounds Apart?

[handler000]

i really think it'll be more competitive than ppl realise. lets go promoters, make it happen! i know im buying.

You have a point it will be competitive for the first 6rds. FM by 8th round stoppage (Nacho will throw the towel).

this fight will be sweet

Its hilarious how when it comes to the real p4p champ he always has to handicap himself in order to get credit from the haterz! But when it concerns other fighters they earned the right to call the shots! Its always the same characters too! I wonder why?


This man works harder than every fighter in the sport and has done so for years. You think he got to this level by accident? *** jmm if he doesnt want to fight under the terms of pbf, there are a million others he could make the same amount and accomplish the same theatrics!

im actually curious to see this fight now & how floyd jr deals w/ a pure boxer counter puncher. i dont remember floyd jr fighting one.

[Jim Jeffries]

All I know is, JMM better damn sure make sure he gets paid like he never has in this fight, because it will probably be his last, especially if the coward makes him fight at WW.

hahahahahahahaha floyd is a coward? i have a question to you tough guy.... would you call him that to his face? if not, maybe you need to look into a mirror. Only then will you find this coward you're looking for

[QUOTE=animalavenue;5112646]

I'm not cherry picking at all, because I'm talking about stacking the cards so as to make it less competetive (at least in theory) than it should be. Oscar stacked the cards a little bit [/B]over the ring size, the gloves, and a lot over the share of the purse, but he was not stacking the cards over the weight.No one was claiming that he was a natural Welterweight or that he could easily move down if he wanted to. And even if he had been a natural Welterweight, [I]Floyd would have wanted the fight to be at 154, in order to be able to get his belt, so it wasn't a case of Oscar trying to force Floyd to fight at a higher weight than he felt able to.[/QUOTE]

Like I said before he was stacking the cards in his favor. Just like PBF is. How is irrelevant. One is not better or more acceptable than the other. Trying to point out the lesser of the two IS cherry-picking.

Are we playing the if game too now?

Floyd wasnt chasing Oscars belt he wanted the money that comes with facing Oscar. The belt was bonus. He was man enough to fight Oscar AT OSCARS WEIGHT. Dont try and take it away from him.

Excellent reply......

floyd is a coward. How do u try to make a fight w/ a career featherweight @147?

He left the game as supposedly the top 147 pounder but he doenst want to fight none of the top welters. A lot of floyd supporters say he's really a small welter & he should be at his old division 140. Thats where marquez wants to meet him but he wants it a couple more pounds north.

I mean meet the guy halfway. floyd is only about 5'8, its not as if he has to kill himself to make 140. He was fighting at 140 3 years ago vs gatti.

Grow a pair brah.
