Floyd had a 2 year layoff, came back and fought a much smaller man in JMM. Even though he was in the P4P Top 3 and the Lightweight king, he was a hand picked opponent and was/is a tune up fight for his big showdown against Pacquaio.
Larry Holmes had a 2 year layoff, came back without a tune up fight and fought the best fighter around Mike Tyson but got his ass handed to him.
Sugar Ray Leonard had a 3year layoff, came back and moved up to a higher weight class to beat Marvin Hagler. The king of the Middleweight division.
If Mayweather was truly that great, like a Leonard or who ever, he should have just came out after Pacquaio defeated Hatton and said lets get it on. F the fight with Marquez, no need for a tune up.. bring on the Pac-Man
