    You're right, it was a mismatch. Floyd deserves a little credit for coming back from a 2 year lay-off and completely dominate the P4P#2 fighter in the world.

    How's them apples?

      some credit for looking good.

      not a whole lot though because jmm looked awful at the weight.

      still a good name win though.

      hopefully we can see him against shane or pac next (cotto has no chance to beat floyd imo. floyd would do him like he did gatti)

        Floyd looked almost 160 to me.

        I'd say he was at least 155.

          He had at least a 10-15 pound advantage on Marquez. I may not have any proof, but that's what I think.

            Hard to prove anything when he refused to weigh in on fight night.

            That right there tells you something.

            10lbs at least.

                  Not too much credit. If JMM, Pac, Cotto, SSM, P. Williams, etc. had a 15 lb. advantage on fight night against ANY fighter that was already moving up 2 weight classes to a weight he has never fought at before, it would be a brutal KO inside of six rounds. But some how the "best fighter in the world" had to go the distance against a fighter he had those advantages on. Advantages that sound like they should be illegal for health reasons to the smaller guy.

                    If floyd would have lived up to the original agreement of 144 then he would get full credit but he did not so he does not get any credit.
