    Very true, Mayweather has been outweighed 10-17 lbs, for some straighe reason he can't be the bigger guy. We're talking about Floyd coming off a 2 year layoff, going against Marquez who is rated 2nd on the P4P.

      I would say B, even though I find JMM a great fighter it is at a new weight but it is still a very good name to have on your resume... JMM will give anybody problems IMO, he is a great fighter. However like I said, its a new weight and he hasn't been tested at 140+ yet so I would say B, it is a good win, you could say a very good win... but not career defining, obviously its a good name to add to your legacy but it wouldn't push him up higher in the ATG list IMO.

          Well I am asking the question as to how you would rate a Floyd win. It's ok if you think it's an A class win for sure. I just happen to disagree and laugh a little on your behalf.

            he brutally KOd the two best lightweights in the world. if that doesn't make him legit at that weight then what would!?

            basically, Marquez isn't gonna turn into Alfonso Gomez over the space of 9lbs

              Not really, WWs don't step into the ring weighing 146-147, Jr WWs do.

                It was obviously exagerrated to emphasize the ridicoulessness of his post. I hope you understand that.

                  With barely I meant only for a short timeframe.

                    Then explain why Floyd will not fight at 140 which would have been much more fair.

                      I still view Mayweather as a Jr WW, with the skill to compete at WW.
