      Nothing to do with drug testing at all. I'm a huge Marquez fan but if he fights Floyd 100 times he loses them all. He does not have the right style to beat Floyd. What he does great Floyd does great only bigger and faster. Juan can't lead and beat Floyd and he won't win a countering chess match. Oh and he could dope until he looks like the Rock and it wouldn't matter.

        You can tell by the reverent tones he and Nacho have spoken of Floyd before, during and after the fight that they know that they can't be competitive against Mayweather.

        JMM is an elite competitor, he does not take his career/legacy lightly, because he will not go through a mentally grueling and physically intense training camp for a fight that he thinks he won't win going in. Mayweather's a defensive wizard Marquez can barely land clean against, if that isn't enough, he would be at a size, strength, speed disadvantage again.

          marquez fought both mayweather and pacquiao when they've shown reluctance to fight each other. he's got nothing left to prove against either guy.

            He wants nothing to do with Floyd.. he even admitted it. Marquez is at his best when he's up against an aggressive fighter, for the first time in his career Floyd made him look silly. He could be on every drug there is, doesn't matter. Floyd doesn't take risks so Marquez's newly found power won't mean a thing. He's never going to successfully counter punch a superior counter puncher.

                Are you serious? The year before fighting Floyd, Marquez was fighting guys at 130. It's not an excuse, it's a FACT! If people like Floyd Sr says that Floyd can fight at 140 then why is it that Floyd didn't go down to 140 or even 144lbs for Marquez?

                Floyd weighs what he weighs because he is constantly training and therefore his weight doesn't fluctuate like those who don't train all year round. Floyd held the 154 title so again, you are making excuses especially on a fight that was held at 152 where his opponent had to struggle to make weight. So you saying what you said about Floyd is an excuse in itself.

                  Wow, way to over think a situation. Marquez cannot beat Floyd and he know's it. Why even bother making this tread??

                    Manny and Marquez are fighting at 147 because that is where the big money is at. They both can easily have stayed below that BUT Floyd can't. He didn't for Marquez and wouldn't for anyone because 147-150 is his comfortable weight. Floyd trains year round so his weight doesn't fluctuate much.

                      That is true. Styles make fights. Marquez does well when his opponent is attacking and Marquez counters. Floyd, who has the speed, size and youth advantage and is also a counter puncher is all wrong for Marquez.
