JMM would have enough pop in his shots to gain Floyds respect at the lower weights
Mayweather could well win, but no chance in hell at the ease he did last weekend.
if u really think bout it.. floyd was quicker at those lighterweight classes
so the weight really shouldnt be that much of a issue
at any weight lets be honest floyd woulda done the same thing to JMM
if not more brutal.. since floyd was more aggressive at 130,135 and 140
It's not the weight itself (though that is part of it), but the size advantage. Marquez came into this fight with a disadvantage in reach of about 5", which is quite a bit, even if they were light heavyweights....for welters, that's monstrous. No way for Marquez to reach Mayweather without Floyd opening up, which he did maybe twice, and then mostly in a counter.
I said it before the fight....Marquez had about a 1 in 200 chance of winning, and I saw nothing in the fight that made me change my mind. Anybody that gave Marquez a legitimate chance at a win here knows nothing about the sport.
168?! I thought he was 198 lbs...was it me? Mayweather should be ashamed
You know what's really apparent from that gif, the extreme difference in reach between Floyd and Marquez. Wow, the dude has LONG arms.. lol, it's like the indian dude from SFII...
He probably could've won at lower weights but he didn't and after such a long layoff weight draining may have had severe effects on him. He seems to have grown into the ww devision now.
