    Yeah, but that isn't the main reason he lost to Mayweather. Mayweather dominated him because of his defense and countering.

      What's your point? Amir Khan used to fight at 135 too.

        What is Marquez's best attributes? Do you believe those attributes are affected by weight?

          Roy's best weight was 160, was he a blown up super middle? Blown up Light heavy? Blown up Heavy? It really didn't matter did it cause he had the skills to pay the bills. He beat everyones tail at every weight. Noone dogged his opponents for being bigger. Even worse you dog Roy saying he never fought anyone even though everyone was bigger. This forum is a sess pool of double standards. KNOW DAT!

            And he was massive there, he is also too big for 140, Khan is bigger than some Light middleweights. That is my point.

              Marquez's best attributes are his ring knowledge and his technique. His knowledge wasn't affected by the weight. His technique wasn't either, but it's a lot better with speed, which he lost at 144. I honestly don't think that fight would look any different at 130 or 135 for Mayweather Marquez. Especially considering Mayweather liked to let his hands go at that weight. Marquez has always had a tougher time with counter punchers too.

                This question is not right it presupposes that the fact that Marques might be a blown up 130 pounder is somewhat dependant on whether he wins or loses to Khan. The question is loaded and should be

                "Fighting at 140 is Marquez, a blown up 130 pounder? "

                Marquez is small at 135 and slow his best weight was 130. That should answer your question. Although the fight with Khan will be at 140 I can see Marquez coming in closer to 135 because he will lose speed coming in any heavier. Size wise he has no business fighting at 140 but still might have enough to beat Khan.

                  So if Mayweather beats Khan, is Khan a blown up Jr. WW?

                    Did you read my post at all?

                    Khan is as big as most 154ers!!!!

                    Only weight he is blown up at is super heavy.
