      that was a spelling error, not grammar

      although you're simultaneously guilty of both most of the time

      anyway, were you saying marquez doesn't posses much skill?

        Grammar is a whole different story; what I noted was spelling. . Also do not forget to capitalize the "E" in English.

          Skills, are a different thing form technicallity!!!!!!!!!!!

          For example, look how skill RRJ was, but techniacally wise he was horrendus!!!!!!!
          Well he is technical, but he delivers with them also, so they are skills. He can pull off some amazing stuff in there that most fighters do not even attempt. JMM is a great fighter in my mind. He can do some beautiful stuff in the ring. What he lacked against Manny, Cotto does have though. Cotto will have the power to seriously hurt Manny. Cotto also has equal speed to JMM and a fantastic jab. Manny will have his work cut out for him. Cotto will also. Manny has shown that his speed and movement alone can be very hard for the heavier guys to deal with. Manny also has decent punching power still.

                Coul you imagine if JMM was 5 10, and came in at 156 on fight night. That would be scary.

                  And Floyd!

                  JMM is a special fighter indeed. He is just now decided to fight far and above where he is great and out of his natural element. JMM is now very vulnerable.

                    So your getting what im saying.

                    Cotto have some Qualities that JMM doesnt have and JMM have some Qualities Cotto doesnt have, an the ones they have in common they are about even.

                    Like I said Cotto, have
                    Speed
                    Power
                    Stregth
                    Jab
                    Body puncing
                    Defense

                    JMM have
                    Counter punching
                    Uppercuts
                    Combinatios
                    RIng Generaship or Ring Smarts(Whatever you want to cal it)
                    Stamina


                    And they are about even in
                    Chin
                    Foot Work


                    So they are about even skill wise, Technically wise JMM is a bit better!!!!!

                      Wtf

                      Comparing apples to oranges here..

                      They both have their unique styles. Its like saying who is more skilled

                      Tyson or Ali..(lest do a poll on that)

                      You just can't compare.

                      I would say even my example is a bit extreme since JMM and MC have some similarities but they still have different styles when taking their opposition out.

                      Anyway, I know I will get laughed at but I am with JMM against Mayweather. We will see if he comes through.
