    given their styles, jmm being a counterpuncher is not suppose to give any problem to floyd

      Yes I will, and I think it's a good tuneup fight before going up against the cherry Pacman who's on the slaughter right now.

      If Floyd chooses to fight Cotto (Let's say he loses) after Marquez, I'll accept it, but if he then chooses to fight another man than Pac, I will lose all respect for him as a boxer. Then he's a hypocrite.

          I could turn into chess match. Either way im still interested. One punch could turn the fight the other way. There is no sure thing about boxing.

              He's the hardest style match up for Floyd because he is the only fighter who is as smart as Floyd

              JMM was moving up to 140 anyway, Floyd is a small WW, is coming off a 2 year layoff and is cutting weight

              Floyd will have a harder time with JMM than he would with Cotto, Mosley and Pac

                  making a lightweight move up to welter is a good tuneup? i wonder what will people say if pac had a superfeatherweight, lets say soto fight him before facing ricky hatton

                    floyd may struggle against pressure fighters, not counter punchers

                      I'll give him props. Let's be fair, Floyd is just coming off a 2 year layoff so he needs a tune up. If Floyd was to take Pac now then you know there would be plenty of excuses for him if he was to lose. If Floyd beats JMM then it's all systems go!
