    I watched b-Hop make history last week.Not phony made up history,but real history.Legit champion at a legit weight in the champs backyard.That was the greatest accomplishment in years.
    very true my man..yet these idiots are the main ones trying to discredit that

      Because styles make fights, and the history.
      Like if vernon forrest fought mayorga instead of mora. It would be considered a bigger fight because the history and for some reason mayorga STYLE gave vernon problems.
      Plain and simple

      I have not seen anyone saying this is a super fight, but it is a great fight.

        Nice thread Larry.

        I think both are **** fights. But there's a slight difference:

        - Mayweather's was a tune up fight after a 2 year lay off

        - No one knew how Marquez's power and speed would have translated at the higher weights. The Pac camp knows this.

              No. Most Floyd stans (including yourself if I'm not mistaken), called it a mega p4p battle between number 1 and 2 at the same time trying to justify the fight by saying Floyd was a 'small welterweight' LMAO.

                What do you think of your hero's recent statements that the Floyd vs Marquez fight wasn't a tuneup fight?



                FLOYD responds: WHEN I do decide to come back,I'm not sure who my opponent may be. The last time I took a two year break, I came back without a tune-up and beat the #2 pound-for-pound guy, which was Juan Manuel Marquez at that time.

                  everybody who saw the pic of JMM in camp could see the excess baggage he carried. All but the nuthuggers could see that he was never going to have a chance. He looked like the pillsbury doughboy.

                    whatever, this fight should be at 140 at the most. They should have gone with a 138 catchweight because Team Pac loves them catchweights.

                      Floyd himself never called the JMM fight a tuneup, in fact he said he never took a tuneup after coming out of retirement, before fighting JMM.
