      Juan Manuel Marquez might put on a decent fight, but whatever good he does is credit for him, because he's older and moving up in weight. He was losing his last fight, but hurt his opponnet and finish him off. His opponent had also been moving up in weight so go figure.

        1 Division and 7lbs. He was out weighed on fight night by nearly 20lbs though. JMM weighed 140 against Diaz. The limit for the PBFvsJMM will most likely be 143-144. So hell be allowed to put on 3 lbs if he pleases.

          The hate for Floyd is taking away from what could really be a good fight. JMM has nothing to lose so there is no pressure on him. Floyd coming off a long layoff and fighting a very talented fighter...more talented the Oscar ever was. Oscar spent most of his career fighting guys smaller than he was, and his lack of ring skills showed when Floyd outwitted him. Floyd is going to have a tough time outwitting JMM. I can see Floyd catching JMM squared up when he attacks, but i think JMM will adjust and make it for a fun scrap.

            Mayweather is taller fighter than Pacquiao and when he went up in weight it wasn't as drastical as when pacquiao did vs oscar. Plus Mayweather didn't really made the weight for the fight with oscar which was more for his advantage, because speed is Mayweather's advantage.

              Bingo. If oscar won, everybody would know it was based on oscar's size/strength. Not skill. Good big man beats a good little man has been used forever.
