    .....they sent Marquez overseas to fight Chris John.

        1 thing I don't like about Mayweather are his combinations. They look slow and unnatural.
        Go to the mirror. Or better yet, go to a heavy bag. Throw a looping right hand followed by an uppercut.

        When you get off the floor and dust yourself off, tell me how that felt.

        You're right. Some of those combos WERE unnatural. But they were the ones needed for Miguel's high guard.

            Outside of the ring, perhaps.

            Inside? I think they know that quite well.

              You know more about boxing than me.... does nacho frequently have fighters that go up 2 weight classes at 1 time? They seemed to do better the second time.

                Not particularly.

                But Nacho has been around the game a long time he's worked with small fighters he worked with bigger fighters. He's took fighters through various weight classes.

                I would think someone as experienced and been around the game aslong as Nacho would be able to know how to gain weight properly.

                    I think that Nacho was very concerned with the speed in 24/7 and emphasised that Marquez was strong but slow. They tried very hard to bulk him up with quail eggs etc... which ended up being a mistake. In Pac 3 they said speed is the key and they won't make the same mistake. I mean he drank piss and now doesn't because he feels it doesn't help him. Of course Vet's make mistakes.

                    Nacho is a very good trainer but he made a mistake with how Oscar made weight VS Pac too. Oscar is a vet also.

                      He didn't just drink Urine for that fight.

                      And I don't recall where Nacho said Marqeuz was slow in the build up.
