    I'm glad this tune-up is over with. What matters is what Floyd does next. As boxingfans we should hope for Shane first followed by the Cotto-Pac winner.
    The weight and skill difference was pretty large...

      difference in size was huge. Ok my question for all you floyd nuthuggers.. If yall feel that everyone is bitching about his win yesterday then why does floyd act the way he does. He places himself under deserved scruitiny for refusing to say how much he weighed fight night. He was probably 15 to 20 pounds heavier than marquez fight night.

          but nope. that was not competitive. Marquez landed maybe 2 flush punches the whole fight, and it was in one round. Floyd just leaves nothing for granted, even paying 600k to make sure he wasnt weight drained and had an even bigger advantage in size.

          Still entertaining though! in a Calzaghe-Lacy way.
          Thanks. It's very nice to see somebody humble themselves when wrong. I was planning on posting something similar had Marquez won. Too bad there are not many people like you. It's hard to admit when we are wrong but it's easy to make excuses. Floyd put on a great show, and JMM withstood 12 hard rounds. I expected a stoppage. I was wrong. I wish a few more people on this site will take a page from your book. Very classy.
