As a fan of Marquez, I am a little worried

Pac looks huge, like he is on steroids. I know pac is not on steroids, but he is a very muscular dude. Do you guys think Marquez will do well at 140 or 147? Remember he only fought at 135 a couple of times.
    I agree and I'm worried about that as well. I think people don't understand that every fighter is different. Pacquiao is a more muscular fighter and I think that his speed also has translated well in moving up.

    Marquez, while not slow by any means, doesn't have the speed that Manny has and I wonder if he will lose a lot of speed at this new weight.

    I love Marquez no matter what because it took some huge balls to take this fight to begin with. I know Mayweather and his people look at this fight and think it's going to be easy but I hope Marquez boxes smart and at least makes a good showing of it.

      I'm worried too but at least JMM is getting a good payday. He deserves it. I think he is at the end of his career. Floyd is to big for him.

        As a fellow fan of Marquez I am here to tell you you shouldn't be a little worried bout Marquez....you should be A LOT worried bout Marquez...it's gonna take a superman type performance to beat Gayweather or The PacMan....it just is....those two kats got mad skill no denying that...Marquez is going to need to bring everything he has and then some to beat either one of these kats...and for once really hope he does...

          This won't be close and it won't take long.
          obviously, floyd is too big for jmm, but if floyd doesn't take him out, what will you say?

            JMM is not about speed, He has good timing and has a great boxing brain, With Mayweather coming back after a two year lay-off and rib "injury" who knows.....No-one is superman in boxing...

              One thing is certain in this fight and that is that Marquez will leave it all in the ring, he is a survivor. Unless Floyd land a bomb like the one Pac landed on Hatton, Marquez is not gonna stay down easily. I really feel Mayweather is gonna be in the fight of his life! No way will Marquez go out like a chump. Marquez is just now being recognized as an all-time Mexican Warrior, he's not about to *** it up!

                I wouldn't be suprised at all if all the little guys, Marquez, Paciauo, DLH, etc all tested positive for something. At that level, you have so much to lose if you get a loss.
                Hate to say this but I tend to agree . And not just the little guys.

                    im not sure why you guys are praising JMM for fighting PBF....JMM will get MILLIONS for fighting him.....

                    JMM is at the end of his career now, he is tired of fighting for $30,000 and losing to Chris John....
