Why does Hopkins get props for beating Pavlike but Mayweather gets none for Maruqez?

    Because Bernard is old as dirt and according to the media he was going to get ****d by the younger undefeated Pavlik. Mayweater is 5 years younger than Marquez and was supposed to win.

      JMM started at 126 and moved up 20 to fight mayweather
      pavlik was heavy, too slow, and the weight was tiring him out.
      BHOP wouldnt have beat Pav at 160.

      i said that during their fight...Pav was way too heavy and it showed

      double standards...people love double standards when it comes to floyd

        Hopkins was old, coming off a loss, against a younger, stronger, quicker, prime fighter that knocked out a guy Hopkins lost to.

        Mayweather is younger, stronger, holds every athletic edge, and outweighed Marquez, and THEN didn't adhere to the agreed upon catchweight. I don't understand the double standard, these are two completely different situations.
