I've been battling guys all day on this and came out with a tko win for me.
I've made legitimate arguments on why is comparable and never get a legit response to refute my argument.
As far as Floyd still getting shyt for his fight with Marquez is because it stems from him making Marquez move up two weight classes and then pulling a fast one on him and screwing him on the scales. Which was f'ed up.Last edited by boxinghead530; 07-08-2016, 10:49 PM.

So, in essence, he moved up seven pounds and fought a Mayweather who was 4 pounds heavier at the weigh-in. Marquez also had fought very little at 135, mostly 130 the past few years.
I have no problem with any of this, but I'm not going to nod along and say this is fine and then condemn other champions for doing the same thing. 147-155 isn't even that much of a leap. 147-160 is higher, but these guys both agreed to it. So what's the problem?

Originally posted by Code Red View PostDidn't Marquez call out a retired Floyd Mayweather? Did Floyd go looking for JMM or did JMM demand a fight with the best? Team Golovkin reached out to make a fight with Brook not the other way around
Plus give me a break with the Marquez demanding the fight. Marquez called him out nothing more. Just like others did.
Also in interviews Brook expressed interest in fighting GGG. But who cares about a call out.
All I have been saying is this fight to me is just like Floyd-Marquez. I also had this bah humbug response that I have with GGG-Brook as I did Floyd-Marquez.
Lastly let's quit all this Floyd was retired for two years stuff, it was barely a year and a half. And during that year and a half there were reports always reporting Floyd being in the gym. Everyone knew he was coming back since he never left the gym and trained during that time.Last edited by boxinghead530; 07-08-2016, 11:19 PM.

problem here is Brook is not even proven at 147 man, Jmm was the lineal champ at 135 and already a hall of fame fighter and one of the best ever out of Mexico..
