    I would not call it the real fight since Floyd forced JMM up two, not one but TWO weight classes with out JMM ever being able to take a tune up fight in that weight class, Floyd is a piece of garbage and I will be more than happy to jump in on your bait thread.

I've heard rumors that he's wanted to retire from boxing to pursue soccer. And he's already showed his true colors by folding in the Margarito fight and DQing himself in his fight with Baldomir while he was winning. This is just going to be another glorified sparring session for Cotto. JMM is the most underrated fighter on this board right now in my view. People are using the size factor to discredit this fight. But if you want my honest opinion, JMM would beat both Clottey and Cotto and he's the tougher match up. I still don't like Floyd though, because he is an opportunist regardless of the fact that the HBO matchmakers have laid their foot down with him. There's just too many meaningless opponents on his resume, but not as many as Calzaghe's.
      cotto vs clottey is way more even by 2 guys who are 2 of the best at what they do. ALso jmm vs mayweather is very uneven floyd is better than marques in every department speed power defense age size . Its an uneven fight and its fought at floyds weight jmm never fought there and going up in weight is going to make him even slower than what hes looked and is going to be less powerful at that weight

            nope marquez fights at 130 and 135 his last 2 fights floyd at 147 and 154 his last 2 fights. marquez never fought over 135 and now hes going up 2 divisions to do that to fight a man thats comfortable at that weight

              I've mentioned earlier in this thread that JMM would beat Cotto in a head-to-head matchup. Don't believe me? Take a look at their styles. JMM has the best uppercut P4P in boxing. And what punch is Cotto tailor-made as f#ck for? The uppercut. Also, JMM has got better stamina than Cotto. If he is able to stand up to whatever Cotto brings in the early rounds he will take him in deep water and drown him. Cotto has had too many fights of where he has just blown out inferior guys either in the early or mid rounds and when he went up against two guys with stamina and championship experience he folded. Yeah, Margarito may have loaded his gloves, but why was Paul Williams able to contain him? And Cotto fought to get to the finish line against Mosley because he knew that the environment in that fight was on his side. You add all this up and JMM would beat Cotto, because he closes fights out stronger toward the end. Cotto's only chance is his size advantage. And I also view Mosley and Williams tougher fights for Floyd than Cotto as well. I'm not a fan of Floyd though and I'm rooting for JMM to win the fight handily. He also had the guts to call out Floyd personally, unlike Cotto did.

                mayweather vs marquez = 24/7 time baby
                So your logic for a real fight is the one that produces more money? You just let us know you aren't a fan of boxing.

                    the more action packed fight will probbably be the cotto - clottey fight.

                    but the more hyped up one will be PBF - JMM.
