    I think that is most likely the case here...

      Mayweather also took it because he knew it was a lower risk type fight for him and Marquez called him out, (hence what Hatton did). Now Floyd is making Marquez move up just like he made Hatton move up, now Floyd has the advantages and another big payday with less risk.

          At the end of the day though when Mayweather beats Marquez arent we all gonna say, "Well you were suppose to beat him anyways". So really whats the big fuss over the fight?

              it was planned.

                it's one of my conspiracy theories as well.

                from what i read , floyd's intention of coming back was for pacquiao.

                no secret there.

                problem is arum does not want to deal with haymon. nor did he want to deal with king since there was talk of floyd signing with dk.

                i think gbp sold marquez out. they'll end up handling floyd for the upcoming pac-may fight.

                giving floyd a nice , easy big name , big money fight as a tuneup was his enticement to sign with gbp.

If I recall, after Marquez beat Diaz during his post fight interview Eric Gomez whispered in Marquez ear and thats when Marquez called out Mayweather. I honestly think GBP did this on purpose to lure Mayweather out cause they know Mayweather would take that challenge (hence Hatton calling out Mayweather).

                  Golden Boy knew that Mayweather will be up for the challenge especially since Marquez is the smaller guy. Since Golden Boy cant get the big fight with Pacquiao and Marquez there gonna try to bank on Marquez vs. Mayweather using Marquez as bait. Golden Boy in the end goes home laughing straight to the bank while Marquez looses to Floyd and also looses his 3rd chance for Pacquiao.
                  Anything can happen I guess. This is the same company that's trying to make money off the war-torn body of Erik Morales.

                    Yes...it also depends on how he wins. If by KO he gets credit from me. If he wins on the cards it won't be too impressive...

                      Agree to that, pure dominance by Mayweather followed by a KO Yes, I would definitely say Mayweather is trying to send a statement to Pacquiao. Win by UD, ok ill by that if it clearly was pure dominance by Floyd but SD or a close fight, im sorry I wont be impressed.
