    Against JMM I think Floyd would be willing to take some risks in the ring. People say Floyd is dumb but he has to realize he needs to put on a show (especially considering it is his first fight back).

    JMM is one of my favorite fighter though, I hope he gives a good showing of himself.

        floyd would be ****** to take risks w/ jmm... jmm is a master of taking advantage of other's mistakes.

        this is gonna go 12 rounds unless one or the other lands a lucky punch(es).

          I wouldn`t be too sure, this is the same trend of thought Hatton fans had of Pacquiao (based on history and weight). But not relying too much on the past, we`re not even sure PBF fights the same way, or withstand the pressure. I wouldn`t bet too much on PBF if I were you, just a little. In that UK media press for example, he was breathing heavily after just a light workout. That`s not too good.

            not really.

            floyd is that good.

            plus he took tuneups at each weight when he jumped a division.

            except at 154 obviously.

              I may be wrong but didn't he go straight to Castillo when he moved up to LW? That's a rather ballsy move.

                Don't get me wrong I heavily favor Floyd to win, I just do not want to see JMM get hurt and I would like to see him fight again in the future being as I remember him not what he may become if he gets beat that badly.


                Straight up I do not think JMM can hurt Floyd so I think Floyd will take chances, now if JMM really stings him in the fight maybe he backs off, but I think Floyd is basically going to try to annihilate him, it won't be like that at the start it will take time to get there. Maybe that will give JMM a better chance but sometimes you have to take calculated risks.

                We will see though.

                    Not at 135 either, to me that is where Floyd learned to take a tune up fights.

                      he's fought at lightweight before.

                      most of his fights early in his career was technically in the lightweight division.

                      he fought a lot of catchweight 131-134 fights.

                      ballsy to take on castillo the man at 135 though.

                      but floyd knew he was good at 135 from his previous fights above 130.

                      i think floyd is very smart and cautious when he moves up. he always takes a nice tuneup when he moves up to make sure he's comfortable at the weight.

                      exception was 154 with delahoya but that was for big $$$$$$$$$$$. floyd would fight wlad for that kind of money.
