    I've seen some of your other posts so you'd probably know better than me what absolute crap is.

      Lmfao. Cambell can't even make weight and arguably lost against Funeka because he was lazy. Marquez brutally KOed both Diaz and Casa whereas this Cambell guy took a SD from Diaz in a close fight.

        Fair enough...but Marquez proved he could compete at 135...

          Also, I forgot what we are arguing about. I think the whole point is: Floyd is a *****.

            The guy deserves a tune-up, but it's just wrong when it gets treated like something it really, really isn't.
            Thank you.

            If Manny were to take a hiatus from the sport and returned, nobody would be giving him slack over a tune up opponent because -- "What do you expect? He needs to get rid of the ring rust."

            Miguel fought a tune up after his loss to Margarito and everyone was fine with it.

            Marquez ain't a 'tomato can wannabe'. He's a well known and respected fighter who has won his share of titles. Strangely, some people choose to forget that.

              Yes, he did prove that.

                I don't mind either. I think it's a perfect fight for him, actually, to work out the kinks and still get some good action. But those who want to pretend it would be some major win for him because Marquez is ranked #2 p4p are delusional.

                  Because he's having a tuneup? Sure.....

                    He's in a no-win situation. If he blasts out Marquez by KO within six rounds, then he was supposed to win anyway, but he "won't be able to pull that **** off on Manny and Miguel."

                    If Marquez gives him hell for twelve rounds, then it'll be because he was overrated to begin with, and "Manny and Miguel will wipe the floor with his sorry ass."

                      No, I disagree. And I hate when people do this. Let's see how the fight unfolds first. There are a lot of scenarios which could take place. And to be honest, it's not about what people say afterwards, it's what Floyd does. For instance, if he goes through hell with Marquez and Pacquiao flattens Cotto, will he still be demanding a bigger split? Will he even want the fight? Way too many scenarios to speculate.
