According to Twitter, JMM signs

he was proven ineffective once...and that was against a guy named Mayweather...he's pretty good and he's made alot of people ineffective

but here is the rub with this

wouldn't that in essence make Mayweather's fans have a case for their fighter being a better fighter?

say JMM has a hell of a fight with Manny yet at the same weight Mayweather literally toyed with him

yes I know styles make fights but this would give fuel to the Mayweather fans looking for some considering their fighter isn't really a fighter anymore

but isn't this going to be billed as a superfight?

Probably. It's not a superfight, but it's a grudge match - one most people wanted to see at 140 less than six months ago. I don't see what people are getting upset about.

Mayweather was also fighting at a different weight limit, so that could have worked against the Pee Drinker..

who gives a **** about fans getting fuels.

I'm dying to see Manny in a competitive fight.

[Evil Abed]

I'm indifferent to this crap.

I'll take the same attitude I did with the Maidana-Morales fight.

Hopefully I'll be pleasantly surprised again.

But I expect nothing.

I've heard this argument a lot. Mayweather does not trade punches and doesn't throw nearly as much leather as JMM.

JMM is gonna destroy your hero.

Wanna put a billion on that? lol.

I think you're over emphasizing the term "upset"

what I think the topic of conversation is

why is it okay for this fight to be labeled as okay or any sort of justifiable when most of not all of the very same people were up in arms about Mayweather fighting the same opponent at the same weight

also we have all now seen how sluggish JMM looked as a welter, does this not make this fight even more questionable considering a lightweight version of JMM now gets hit plenty.

it's a very clear case of it being okay for some but not for others

this fight at this weight stinks
