    Just something to think about.
    Oscar made the contracted weight.

          Damn this is bull s..., but then again what're we xpectin from this piece of ****. JMM knew already that he was againts everything, good luck to him. I just hope that him and his corner don't go for the " you have to kill me " bull**** if the fight start going downhill for him. He's been punished a lot already on his carrer and he don't need to prove ****, like I said before no matter what happend in this fight he's still fighting Pac again.

            i was pissed at first too. like **** mayweather and was leaning toward not getting the fight at all.
            but if you think about it, he did nothing wrong. the contract said 144 w $300k penalty per lb over....i think gbp shoulda looked out for marquez and either checked mayweather on that part of contract or ask for more loot on penalty.
            charge that mofo $1 milli per pound and i bet he makes the weight! golden boy dropped the ball on this.

            viva mexico!!! ooooeeee ooooeee ooee ooe...marquez...marquez!

              I'm not debating the contract just the weight.

And, JMM is going up 2 weight classes. Oscar came in at the contractual weight. Floyd did not, That was Oscar 5th weightclass and that was Floyd 5th weightclass as well. Do you want me to keep on going? Oscar was the underdog nobody really gave him a shot beaten Floyd going in. I can give you more if you want...
                Aight i'll give u that oscar was alittle pass his prime.

                Oscar being a full time promoter????? Who's fault it is that??? Not his oppenent.....Thats not flying.

                JMM going up 2 weight classes???? True but that is the same weight difference as Oscar vs Floyd.

                Oscar being the underdog has nothing to do with what i'm saying.




                Listen, i'm not debating the contract controversy (which is still debatable and no one knows the full detail). I just have an issue with people Making Excuses for Marquez in the event he loses just becasue of size........PLUS people saying if Floyd win's, he gets zero credit and Floyd has ALL THE ADVANTAGES.....WORD???? True he does have a size advantage BUT, he didn't fight in damn near 2 YEARS and comes back fighting one of the pound for pound best fighters out there.......THAT COUNTS FOR SOMETHING!!!!!

                  I hope this will mean once and for all that Mayweather's fanboys will stop claiming that he's still a natural Jnr Welterweight and is not a natural Welterweight. If he can't get lower than 146 even when the contract stipulates that he has to, then he's as much of a natural Welterweight as anyone is.

                    How is JMM moving up 2 weight-classes the same weight difference as Floyd moving up 1? Also Floyd showed that he could fight at Welterweight and still be in top form. JMM hasn't even showed that he could be competitive at Jr Welterweight let alone at Welterweight.

                    True he has been gone for 2yrs. But, I could also point out that Sugar Ray Leonard was gone for 3yrs came back. WHEN UP A WEIGHT CLASS AND FOUGHT THE #1 AND BIGGER GUY IN MARVIN HAGLER in his first fight back.

                    The size is too much man. It just is. No credit. He could of fought Berto, Clottey, Collazo, even Quintana. And, I would of gave him credit. Those are men his own size in his weight class that are top 10 but not elite fighters. That he could of came back on. I do not see how Mayweathers fans can say that a full blown WW can fight full blown LW and that is ok? Is not an issue. Nah bro that is that is a big issue

                      I doubted they still will say. That he does not gain that much weight by fight night..
