Will you think less of Floyd if he doesn't meet Marquez in the centre of the ring?

    After all, he does have about a three weight division advantage over Marquez.

    If Floyd jumps on his bike and runs from lil' Marquez it would be pretty sad.

    He has no reason to run. Marquez doesn't have the pop to hurt him or the speed to catch him. Floyd knows he can stop Marquez if he puts in the effort. Floyd will win by knockout.

      Yes, although of course that is what will happen.

      Floyd is nothing short of a disgrace to the sport.

          A fights a fight, it's always dangerous, picking scenarios just to discredit Floyd is pretty weak.

            i agree with AssasinKing .. its the way he fights.. from the outside.. he hardly ever stand in and trades hard shots.. if he does get rocked with a hard hit from marquez i expect the bicycle for the rest of the night .. and floyd cruises to the UD

              The best chance Marquez has is for Floyd to meet him in the center of the ring and fight, since it will allow Marquez to utilize his amazing counter punching ability and work the ribs. Floyd has to keep his distance and make Marquez come to him.

                haha I can tell your not a boxer. "if he runs". He is a boxer. he likes to stay on the outside and work. If he wasnt a boxer he wouldnt be 39-0.

                  i agree with your post.

                  I think floyd will be willing to trade a bit more since of the size advantage he has over JMM but if JMM starts getting the better of him in close (ie. winning rounds over floyd!) or if floyd gets popped with a good one and his balance starts to go a little screwy then i expect him to hope on the bike and treat him more like he would any other opponent.

                  JMM is a GREAT body puncher though so floyd may not even take the risk of allowing JMM the chance to land that perfect body shot.

                  time will tell. i just expect a little more brawl in mayweather's gameplan (or as much brawl as a floyd mayweather could do at least).

                  the probable outcome is mayweather via close decision.

                  however i will root for JMM. he's a good guy and nearing the end of his career it would be great to see him get one last major win on his record.
