If Floyd is rusty, does it diminish a Marquez win?

Gets no credit beating a guy coming off a two year layoff, no not from me.

Well if Floyd looks rusty, ppl aren't going to perceive it as him being rusty or having an off night but more likely he will be perceived as having his best days behind him and it will seem like he waited too long to come back. I don't know what that would do to a potential JMM win.

For JMM,skipping up to welterweight to face 1 of boxings best of the past 20 years,with no real advantages,if he pulls off the upset,he has got to be ATG-HOF material for sure!!Easily passing Chavez,in my opinion!!

Floyd isnt rusty did you see what he did to that sparring partner! He is a beast.

yes of course, the sparring partner! the one that they closed the doors and then had him reappear with blood all over his face. im really not buying it. im not saying that i think its fake blood or anything but if nothing funny going on, then show the dam sessioN!

JMM gets FULL credit regardless of 2yrs floyd layoff. i think jumping the 2 weight classes trumps the floyd layoff by far!. good question though TS!

If Floyd clearly looks rusty and just off on fight night does it take away from Marquez's win?

I think it should be a two way street on this...if Floyd wins he gets credit but not FULL credit due to him fighting a smaller man at a weight he's never fought at...

And if Marquez wins he beats a great fighter although the guy hasn't seen any action in 2 years...

Only way I think I could consider giving full credit to either is if Marquez knocks Floyd out...

Your thoughts?

My thoughts? You are a dumb ass.

In the eyes of a Bias Floyd fan yes, if floyd loses, that fan will use that as an excuse to why he lost. thats just the way of the world.
