Myth: A "Fat" Marquez vs. Mayweather

[xcaret v3]

He had an 8 Pac vs Floyd but is called Fat. James Toney is fat.

he gained muscle but made the 35 year SLOWER and less effective.. get over it.. mayweather fought a punching bag version of marquez....mayweather vs marquez at 130 would of been more competitive... too bad marquez wasnt known, now stfu and gain some weight and try to do the same thing marquez did you ****** ***.

No sense explaining to a *****. You don't understand logic, you don't understand match, you're blinded by hate and idolatry to floyd's **** and you don't even understand what you were writing.

What a waste of oxygen...

You know you cats will state everything but the obvious and focus on a lie. Here's some truth, Marquez is shorter than Floyd, Marquez has a shorter reach, Marquez is less athletic than Floyd, Marquez certainly doesn't throw his punches as fast as Floyd, Marquez is not as skilled as Floyd.....all these are facts but what we get here is Floyd beat a FAT Marquez. I think the "FAT" comment is meant to insult the 2 fighters, Floyd in particular, and thats not necessary now is it?

Yeah i might agree with you on mis-using the word fat on jmm but you can't deny the fact that he was bloated that time just to make weight but still floyd manage to cheat.

I felt robbed with that fight as i was expecting floyd to at least ktfo marquez with all the advantages he had but what a rip-off.

Surprised this one went this long. That fight was a disgrace. Period.

[M.I.C.]

Max Kellerman, Jim Lampley, and Manny Steward said a lot of sh-t about Jmm and Floyd during that fight. Not once did any of them say that Marquez was fat, you'd think they'd notice that.

Pacquiao started his Career at 106.Marquez started at 126 and Floyd started at 130.Floyd is slower at 146 then at 130.Marquez is slower at 142 then at 126.So its fare if you ask me and Floyd should be given credit for beating Marquez.


If its ok for Floyd to fight Pacquiao its ok for Floyd to fight Marquez cause Pacquaio started at a lower weight class then Marquez.The only reason Pac kept his speed and also got faster moving up cause of the Power of PED`s.

Damn, would have been better if you stayed silent than expose yourself as another idiot with that logic.

What's 'fare' anyway?

Can someone explain to me this myth that Marquez was Fat vs Mayweather. I mean how does a guy go from 135 to 142 and gets fat in the process? I whole 7 pounds!!! I'm sure most real boxing fans have a copy of this fight and unless your blind or just a biased *******, I dont see a "Fat" Marquez. I see a guy that is shorter than Mayweather but still very strong, stout, durable, and solidly built. 142 didn't make Marquez fat or slow, he has always been slower than Floyd, he has always been shorter than Floyd, he has always had a shorter reach than Floyd.

So basically stop making excuses by insulting Marquez, calling him fat, old, slow, etc...Floyd has had 40 fights has he not outsped every opponent regardless of their age and conditioning? Was Chico old fat and slow? Was Zab old fat and slow? Was Hatton, Old fat and slow? Was Castillo Old Fat and Slow?

My guess is that Marquez would of done a lot better vs Pacquiao at 142 on that night than he would vs Mayweather at any weight.

marquez aint ever been fat who ever said that must be on summit....

U do understand that Mayweather was at the same weight at the same age right? Pacquiao didn't have the luxury of an amateur career to learn his craft. If you wanna be a dumbass, we can say that since the age of 16, Mayweather has lost 6 times while Pac's lost only 3. Anyways to get back to your comment, if someone fights at more of their natural weight, wouldn't you expect them to be faster and stronger? I'll let you know right now, I'm a Mayweather fan. If Mayweather let his hands go as much as Pacquiao he'd be as impressive if not more than Pacquaio.
