How good a win is JMM for Mayweather?

[S.G.]

With barely I meant only for a short timeframe.

9lbs is the weight of a new born baby

do you think that's a complete game changer? i accept we won't see the best possible Marquez in there, but a meaningless fight? really?

you do Marquez a great disservice

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

Maybe because he does have interest in facing Cotto or Shane. He did say, he plans on fighting twice a year and he is here to stay.

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

Why wont he fight a LW at 140 then?

Look on top. Another thing, JMM isn't even established at 140, what would be the difference?

I voted c-class win. It would have been much better if the fight was at 140 so I think those 9 lbs makes a significant difference.

depends on how he beats him. JMM is the smaller man but he's a warrior that comes to fight. if he KO/TKO's JMM then i would rate it a B maybe

If he really has that interest then he should have fought a WW contender instead of reducing the p4p no.2 to a tune-up IMO.

Because it would then only be one weightclass JMM would have to jump obviously and since Floyd in your opinion is a JWW then it makes more sense to make the fight there. By making the fight at 145 (or whatever the weight will be) Floyd is getting a huge advantage IMO.

S.G...the thing is that...it isn't 9 pounds we're talking about. JMM will come in at 144, then drop down to 142 maybe. Mayweather will weigh in 144, come in 146-147. We're talking 4-5 pounds.
