Why is Floyd criticized for fighting Marquez? Didn't Pac fight Larios (who was coming up two divisions) and who was also knocked out in his previous fight? How is it any different? At least Marquez was coming off of a big win.

So not tyring to put down any of Pac's opponents but man it sure would be nice to see him fight someone on the up and up.

It doesn't even matter that Pac fights guys coming off of losses, or beaten up and KO'd recently. Perfect example, Morales, whats the purpose of fighting him after he is abused by Raheem. And after Pac KO'd him Pac fought him again!!!! He fought Barrera who just lost to Marquez, he fights Cotto who gets KO'd by Cheato, and busted up by Clottey. Hatton KO'd by Floyd and clearly still shook about it, Oscar ( I wont even mention)

Who put the 2nd Barrera fight as anything?
Hatton got ko;d by Pac at 140 where he had never lost. Also it was a brutal beating. No one expected that and quite a few still felt Hatton had a good chance after Paulie which was his best performance in a while.
Cotto had a touh fight with Clottey, but won. He had 1 eye from early on. Pac was still untested vs a very good fighter in Cotto.
Heard of a rematch clause? Well there was one with Morales... which Morales chose to do.
Oscar chose the fight and weight. End of story. Pac beat him badly, only Hopkins ever hurt him that badly. If Oscar didn;t ***** out, he would have gotten ko'd.
Anyway ignore my statement about fat content. If you watch fights, most boxers are at 10% and that goes for most athletes. I go gym and know this. It is also on the itnernet. Boxers are slightly different ebcause they have an unhealthy weigh in most of the time. That's when 5% is what they reach.
There's a formula to measure fat % too.

Juan did get stopped good, but also gave JMM a hell of a time.
FOTY candidates are never one sided.

OK M.I.C, I am going to sleep.
It's 12.15 am and I have a 10 mile run at 6 AM.
I need sleep and I know I am right.
Rarely does a none pro boxer under heavyweight come in fat at all. Fat in boxing is not going to look huge.
In motor racing they deal with grammes and pay thousands to get carbon fibre to save on weight. It doesn't sound much but to be the best, every damn thing count. Million are spent on wind tunnels and developement etc...
In boxing VS a P4P king, being over your best weight by a few pounds is a hell of a lot. If 7 pounds doesn;t mean much, then **** junior welter weights and get them all to fight at 147.
I even notice if I am at my peak weight, I do perform better at running and sports. If I am over weight by 5kg which is about 10 pounds at a guess, I feel it.
No one needs a disadvantage when facing someone of Floyd's level. He's a million times better than lightweight "king" juan diaz lol. He became the prince after Nate campbell btw.

Realistically, he was outside of his weight class. He looked heavy on his feet and un proper. Surprised you needed that explained.
Mayweather still would have beat Marquez at 130 however, it would have been more competative i'm sure, but A win for May weather no doubt. Marquez is a good featherweight, with a style that gave trouble to the great Pacquiao.
Much like Castillo was a good lightweight that gave trouble to a great Mayweather.
A floyd ****rider..
