    He had so many opportunities to really put JMM in the bodybag and he could not f**kin' do it. He even said it in one of the post-fight interviews that he tried going for the k.o.

    F**k, if that's the most effort Floyd can give in putting in a great performance, good f**kin' luck to him, 'cause that effort that he displayed against Marquez, will not deter PAC whatsoever.

      Yeah but that doesnt mean anything. Its the same about comparing Floyd to Pac. Thats what Pac & Mosley are. Power fighters. Floyd completely shut JMM out and destroyed the #2 P4P fighter in the world and the guy who alot of people said is a better pure boxer than Floyd and more techniqal than Floyd. Dont look for Floyd to beat guys the same way Mosley would and dont look for Mosley to beat guys the same way Floyd would. Just because Floyd didnt stop JMM doesnt mean that he's garbage

        Laugh all you want. But, I really think that if it was PAC in there on 9/19. I really think Floyd would've lossed. Don't get me wrong, I don't think Floyd was in a bad a shape as DLH was against PAC, hell, not even close. But, any lil slip-up against PAC is bad news.
        I don't really take the opinion of a guy who spells lost as "lossed" seriously.

          Can you cut him some slack since he was coming back from a near 2 year layoff?

            ''Can't pull the trigger'' did you just sit down and listen to people involved in the sport and try to use words they were using, but didn't know what the hell you were talking about. In this fight didn't Mayweather set some kind of compubox record for that +/- ratio Bull****. When was Marquez ever hit that much? If Floyd can't pull the trigger then who the **** was hitting Marquez?
            If you don't like him so be it, first it was ''he don't wanna fight Pac or Mosley'' well like I said before, the devil is knocking at your ****ing door now bitches

              Its his 1st fight back and every fight is different. Besides, what the hell are you even talkin about now that I think about it. Isnt JMM the same guy who alot of people think beat Pac twice? Now you acting like Pac wouldve destroyed JMM. Get real man. All these cats on here who think Pac destroys JMM at 144 or higher dont know boxing. The thing that makes Pac & JMM look so different since there fight is that JMM fought Floyd and Pac fought a Diaz, Oscar, Hatton, and Cotto. Watch how Pac looks after the Floyd fight and tell me if you still think Pac would own JMM or that JMM looked horrible against Floyd.

              With all that being said, Im not going to rip on you too much. Its your opinion and I understand where you are coming from. You figured that since he was fighting JMM instead of the huge WW's that Floyd would let his hands go so now you are convinced that all he can do is pot shot. That could be true but JMM is the best counter puncher or 2nd best in the game so maybe Floyd was just worried about running in there. Its not like JMM was so aggressive and gave Floyd alot of openings. Once he got a taste of Floyds speed, he went extra cautious and thats why Floyd never got any openings to be aggressive

                Exactly. They forget the guy just returned from almost two years away from the ring, and now he's supposed to bodybag Marquez?

                    I'll put it to you Floyd fans this way. . .When Vitali Klitschko one week after Floyd's fight, was able to land and throw more punches in 10 rounds than what Floyd did with Marquez, I too noticed it. In my not so humble opinion Floyd would trouble Pacquiao with his defense, but he won't be able to fend him off because 1) He doesn't throw as much as he should to keep Pacquiao at bay
                    and 2) He doesn't appear to have that added umph it would require to keep Pacquiao from coming in. I am anticipating this fight as much as everyone but my early diagnosis has Pacquiao getting to Mayweather and perhaps even stopping him. Anyone else agree?
