    However he picked Marquez exactly to know where he is at. Marquez would bring more speed than the welters, but also lee power so it's the perfect tune up.
    Good post. It will be interesting to see.

    You know, a lot of people are counting Marquez out... but if Mayweather doesn't come in TOP shape there is potential for an upset.

    I love Mayweather, but it would be kind of cool to see Marquez finally get to the top of the mountain.

      A second point, I consider Manny kind of a head hunter. He has to work the body to beat Floyd, and this works in conjuction with the upper cut. While mixing in what he currently does.

      All this is a lot easier said then done though against someone who is trying to beat the **** out of you that is a master of the sport.

        Of all the things that Floyd Mayweather does he will always come in on shape. Dude is a straight gym rat, look at what most fighters look like just one month after a fight, now look at Floyd comming off a year and a half layoff 10 weeks out from the fight. Dude is a freak.

              I noticed that at the press conference with Marquez. Dude looks as good if not better than when he left.

              fcastro1, are you stealing lines from Roach's post-fight?

Floyd Mayweather Jr. in his prime was faster than Pac. Pac is fast, real fast, when I talk of hand speed, I'm talking about speed where you can't even see the hands move, it's like a blur.

                  Mayweather has faced Judah who has one of the fastest hands in boxing. It's not like Mayweather has never dealt with real speed before.
                  Am I the only person seeing this you dumbass? Read up on what you type before spewing out bull****.Haha.
