But, credit to JMM for KO'ing 2 fighters who have never been KO'd. He won cuz of skills he adjusted but again watching those fight you can tell that was his limit. Is just so much you can go up. That is why we have weightclasses...
    Diaz also backed Freitas up so Im not so sure thats an indication, besides JMM is a counter puncher so he's gonna back up anyway so he can stay in his punching range.

      nope...but i definately think he's faster than gomez. he looked slow in their because he was in there with floyd.

        I personallty thought JMM didnt carry his weight up well into LW. He didnt look that great against Juan Diaz. He was more below 135.

          IMO Freitas lost his heart after he fought Corrales. So in the Diaz IMO Freitas wasn't a fighter anymore. It wasn't in him anymore...

          nd, it was not only Diaz was backing JMM up it was that he was rocking him back. If you look closely at JMM legs he looked shaky at 135...

          I think JMM won those fights cuz of his skills and will. But, I feel that was his limit. We have weightclasses for a a reason you can not just keep moving up and up... If he fights Hatton at 140 we can see if he looks better.

            Watch Gomez vs Gatti and Karass and if you still feel that JMM is faster at 147 then we will just agree to disagree...

              I dont think Hatton is the measuring stick, I think he's too much for Marquez and especially fighting in Europe where he will be allowed to rough Marquez up and fight dirty.

                It's you. He put a clinic on JMM who is one of the best boxers p4p that we have now.

                    i think id should have rephrased the title to rusty offense because he was sharp on defense...it seem to me like he was either holding back, lost confidence or it was ring rust. he used less than half of whats in his arsenal.

                      Your a ****ing tool if you think he looked rusty.. Almost every expert says he looks as good as ever.
                      I think he meant excuses if Floyd loses to the Pac monster.
