Hypothetical Marquez Welterweight Matchups

[syphillis]

Well no because what he says is, those SMW come in higher themselves on Fightnight

Where Floyd doesnt go up at all on fight night.. maybe a pound or two... so Pac and Floyd both weigh the same on fight night.

I understand what he's saying. What I mean though is that Flawless is really saying that Pac should not be fighting below WW because he is a WW on fight night... and that's what I try to imply about Clottey being a SMW on fight night on a WW fight. It's like saying "hey Floyd does not dehydrate/rehydrate himself +-10 lbs so his oppenents that weigh around Floyd's weight on fight night are the same size as Floyd", which of course is bull****. Got me?

Clottey should be fighting MW, guys likes Pavlik. But difference is Clottey can drain himself to make WW while others can't. Boxing is a sport based on weight. 170 Clottey should do fine against 171 pounds Pavlik

[Don Johnson]

WOW! Marquez is a helluva good fighter but, people on this forum overrate him like crazy. You guys seriously think, he's gonna get past 4 real welterweights? He beats Forbes but, loses to: Berto, Collazo, Quintana, and Isaac.

Which division does Floyd belong in?

[Silencers]

It's really hard to say how he would do against true welterweights, I'd pick him to lose to all of them right now apart from Forbes, he'd beat Forbes. Forbes is more of a 140 pounder anyway.

Which division does Floyd belong in?

If he drained himself like Clottey, Cotto and Mosley he'd be a LW

[BattlingNelson]

So Floyd is a lightweight?

[steptwome]

Forbes and Hlatshwayo are guarantee wins for marquez. He definitely could not get into a slugfest with Berto. Collazo and Quintana; Too big

[King Flawless]

Weight is weight. JMM has beaten and fought 145 pounds Pacman, Now he is fighting 147 Floyd. It shouldn't be much difference. People use the weight excuse for JMM. Realistically, he is moving up 4 pound only

[THE REED]

So Floyd is a lightweight?

Even better... Floyd can make 130.
