Hypothetical Marquez Welterweight Matchups

[Jim Jeffries]

Beats them all easily

He handled 147 Pacman, why can't he handle weaker less talented opponents

Funny thing is, he's really serious.


Would've much rather seen Floyd fight someone like Berto as a tuneup. I'll have to wait and see how Pac does against Cotto before I'd even pick him to beat guys like Berto, Collazo or Quintana.

[THE REED]

Collazo would have been a **** fight

Collazo, Forbes, Berto...we know what to expect, an easy Floyd win

JMM.. unexpected and much more risky on the basis that he could get better with the weight

Collazo, Forbes, Berto are the epitome of safe fights because we know what they present, with JMM we just don't know

You realize Marquez was wobbled and almost STOPPED by Diaz at 135... DIAZ... a fighter who PAULIE just outclassed.

I agree, but it would have stopped people complaining about the WW crap, a lot of them just wanted to see him fight a WW... but in truth JMM is more skilled, P4P #1 and will probably generate more money (ticket sale jokes again ).

147 Pacman beats all those guys mentioned. Yet JMM handled and exposed that Pinoy hypejob. Somehow he will lose to lesser fighters just due to size.

JMM handled 147 Pacman. That Pacman is better than anyone mentioned PERIOD

You can't just go about it by triangle theory... saying 'Pacquiao would beat all of those guys and because JMM exposed Pacquiao that means JMM beats them too', you can;t go about it that way... anyway JMM didn't really expose him they were close fights, all it did was make it clear he struggles with counter punchers... anyway, you can't just judge it by thinking like that... it doesn't always work like that.

Cotto beat Mosley, Mosley beat Marg, Marg beat Cotto... you see what I mean? I don't wanna here any plaster stuff either cause there are more examples of this... its just one example off the top of my head.

Paulie outclassed Diaz. JMM stopped Diaz, see the difference, clown boy

You're gonna be shocked if you expect an easy Floyd win, JMM is almost as skilled as Floyd he can hang with him better than anyone not named Shane or Manny

If you think Floyd - JMM is getting no attention then think about Floyd - Collazo,

Be honest what would you rather pay to see, JMM has the prestige, ranking and name and the fact he's smaller by 5 lbs cancels out Floyd's 2 year layoff

I love this fight

[THE REED]

Paulie outclassed Diaz. JMM stopped Diaz, see the difference, clown boy

And before he stopped him, Diaz almost had Marquez out of there.. **** head.

[Spacey1991]

Paulie outclassed Diaz. JMM stopped Diaz, see the difference, clown boy

Can't take away the fact that it was still a tough fight for JMM, come on now... even as a Floyd fan myself we gotta be fair.

Hatton beat Collazo, Pacman had Hatton out in 2 rounds. Yet he will struggled with Collazo. Pacman beats Carlos Q. Don't know about Berto, Pacman hasn't fought an American fighter as of yet

Obviously Id prefer Marquez-Floyd over Floyd-Collazo... just for the name sake...

But Marquez was wobbled by Diaz at 135.... Floyd at 144 now? really?

[King Flawless]

And before he stopped him, Diaz almost had Marquez out of there.. **** head.

So what, he didn't have JMM out of there. JMM had his ass out of there. A brutal KO, which Paulie couldn't do.

Can't take away the fact that it was still a tough fight for JMM, come on now... even as a Floyd fan myself we gotta be fair.

It was a decent scarp, with JMM KOing Diaz in a brutal fashion,


Fighters get hurt. Old Foreman hurt Holyfield more than Tyson did.
