Didn't Marquez make a promise that the fight wouldn't be boring?

      I didn't find it boring.

      Maybe you got yout hopes up, and thought it would be a back and forth FOTY?

        It wasn't very entertaining but i saw worse than that. The Baldomir fight was hideous. Baldomir was punching the air slower than a heavyweight and Floyd threw one punch at a time and had a Hopkinsesque workrate.

          Not really. Other than the knock down in the first and Joe's little dry humping stunt, it was pretty dull.

          It might just be that I was glad to see Mayweather in the ring again but all my friends/family who I watched it with didn't find it boring either.

            I never seen the baldy fight but Floyd fought similar to how you said in this fight in my opinion.

              If I promise you to meet this kid for a fight outside on the jungle gym, and that kid doesn't show up, am I to blame?

                It was a one sided domination borefest by Money. I was very disappointed at Marquez even though I predicted he will lose. He was dominated in every way for 12 rounds.

                  if he did promise this, i'm sure it was because he didn't think he'd be getting popped all night, while not being able to land anything on his own in return....

                  oh, i forgot, it was those extra 2 lbs. that carried mayweather to victory.


                  the fight was boring as expected, you say? but u still watched.....and you'll watch his next one too.

                    The fight was not as boring as some expected. Marq had his moments.
                    I actually expected more from Juan since he was the one promising to fight hard and winning for Mexico.

                    But most were more impressed with the way Floyd handled him.

                      Yes it was similar but much much worse. It made JMM vs Floyd look decent.
