    were talking about defeat, not the mental pressure he goes thru before fights. and to answer your question, he doesnt fight guys that he thinks could beat him. he could have fought mosley in his comeback and yet he picked a counter punching lightweight
    Come on now... he has been away 2 years, I don't expect him to jump straight in there with Mosley, Cotto or Pacquiao... whether Floyd calls it a tune-up or not, I still don't expect him too.

    Floyd fought the best as much as he could at 140 and below... 130 he did, 135 he did, and 140... he was dangerous so a lot of guys dodged him... 154 he only fought DLH but if you look at his fight night weight he has no business being there anyway... as I have said before... the only real weight you can look at Floyd and say he could of done a bit more would be WW... which I agree, I would love to see him fight Cotto or Mosley or even both, I am more into a Pacquiao fight though to be fair.

    As for what you said, who knows how he would react... maybe he could comeback stronger from it... I mean in the Olympics when he lost the fight for the silver medal (supposedly robbed, but I haven't seen it so can't comment), he made sure he started to work even harder so it wouldn't happen again... so he kinda had that in the Olympics, so maybe if he was to lose in the pros he would go the same way about it... I could be wrong though, its just a thought I guess.

    I get what you mean though, he is so proud of his undefeated record that there is a chance that he might find it hard to get over.

      Floyd will lose.....not much because of the lay-off but more on Marquez being a great thinking fighter.

        How will he all of a sudden become "overrated" from losing?

        Will it undo every past accomplishment? No...

        There is too much stigma attatched to Mayweather's '0' - if he loses it he loses it; it's not the end of the world. Marquez is a brilliant fighter and has as good a shot as just about anyone at beating Floyd. If Floyd is to lose I'm sure there'll be a rematch first and foremost, and then he'll carry on with what's left of his career
