Agreed. That's an interesting matchup actually. Who do you pick in that matchup if it ever could have happened: A prime Sweet Pea, or Prime Mayweather? That's a tough fight to call. I'm going with Sweet Pea on the sole reason I believe he could match or possibly exceed FMJ in pure boxing talent and ability, but it would be a true chess match that's for sure.
Money Mayweather Officially Back. Marquez Fight On!

Who said Floyd was a gangsta? I like what he does in the ring. Outside of the ring he's looked pretty ****** at times...Comment

Man "B" with no voice or impact keeps screaming the same thing and nobody listens or pays attention to him.

all u ***in idiots that r callin this a tune up fight r ***in retarted. jmm is the number 2 p4p and to many who believe he beat pacman twice consider jmm the number 1 p4p so how r u gonna say this is a tune up. this match has potential to be one of the best fights of the year. both fighters are master technicians at what they do and i wouldn't doubt it if marquez comes thru with a victory. And if he loses its all good he went out fighting THE best fighters boxing has to offer.

Let me ask you something dude. What do you think about weight classes and what purpose are they intended to serve? I fully understand Juan Manuel Marquez why took the fight, but does FMJ really need to fight a true featherweight who fought for most his career there to jump up nearly 20 pounds to tune himself up with?
.
Sooo, Marquez fought most of his career at Featherweight, and he is a featherweight.
Floyd fought 80% of his career at Superfeatherweight & Lightweight, but he is umm, er, a natural welterweight.
Double standard much?Comment

Frauds jr.
I like the concept my dude.
Floyd nutthugers are the worst of all time.
Mayweather is supergifted,but it's all about money.
He's a ****head,I dislike what he represents.I even have more respect for a fool like Klitschko,who is humble, than this insane kid paper chaser.
Mayweather was 130 when he was 21.Well,I was 15 when I was one year old.
Marquez is actually around 135 since two fights,Mayweather 146 since 5 years.
It's a muscle mismatch.As much as I love humble warriors like Marquez,he will ony hit Floyd's shoulders...Comment

I try to be as fair and level headed towards all discussions. Marquez just recently started to fight above 130 at lightweight, and he's at the tail end of his career and approaching 40 sooner than later. If anything history teaches you is that fighters who have been considered great fighters that inevitably move up in weight do not fare as well. Are there exceptions? Sure there are. By and large they get outsized, don't have the reflexes/speed in their delivery or reactions, and take punishment from much harder hitting fighters due to the weight. Even the great Sugar Ray Robinson isn't immune to this idea as he moved up to MW and even a LHW match in the twilight of his career. The idea is every man has a certain limit in size before someone bigger and equally skilled will beat your ass, and that's why weight classes are in existence.
So yes, I am being fair at least in my opinion. Ever heard the saying, "Why don't you pick on someone your OWN SIZE?" Evidently boxers have forgotten this adage in chasing the mega payday, and that's sad.Comment

2.U sure did.
3.people who think fraud jr. is a great fighter.
