[Boxing] Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs Juan Manuel Marquez

Not quite as good as Hard knocks, imo. I agree with your buddy though, Marquez's parts have been pretty boring (until the piss drinking part). Floyd and his fam are carrying the whole thing.

 

Agreed, Hard Knocks is badass as well. Pretty much anything HBO puts out is extremely well done.

 

don't get me wrong, i love Hard Knocks, but I feel like it has jumped the shark to an extent. too much playing to the camera, not enough candidness anymore.

24/7 is consistently great and compelling tv. they could take 2 shmoes from my local gym and i'd watch every episode.

either way though, them boys at HBO sports know how to cut and edit some film

 

JMM by tko

 

nobody is knocking mayweather out....floyd will win by boring UD as always ...he will be too quick for marquez.

 

Juan Manuel Marquez gets as little respect as Hagler got back in the day when he was in the shadow of Sugar Ray Leonard.

If you ask me which fight I would most like to see: it wouldn't be Floyd Mayweather against Pac, it'd be Marquez-Pac 3.

I hope Marquez knocks floyd the hell out. The only guy I like better than JMM at this point is gerry penalosa. You talk about heart, gerry has heart.

 

the only way for JMM to win this fight is via tko and he knows it.

 

I want to see Anthony Mundine take on Mayweather.

That's what I want to see.

 

Mundine is a can

 

Oh yeah I hate Mundine - and i'm sick of him mouthing off about
being the best in the world - size be damned Mayweather would shut him
the hell up!

Mind you, as far as mouths go - Floyd can probably match him.

 

mayweater will be broke by the time he gets to his dad's age he wastes his money on dumb stuff.

 

Floyd is faster stronger and smarter thats why I have hime winning by decision. I don't Marquez can be knocked out he has a lot of heart he will keep getting up when knocked down. I'm thnking we won't see the Pacman vs Floyd fight because I have the strangest feeling Cotto is about to spoil the party.

 

DAMN no punchline to that just damn!!

In case yall want to see the fight at the movie theater you can find it on this link

 

anyone seen the information on how much they'll charge to watch the fight at home via PPV??

 

I think this whole fight is a setup for Pac v. Mayweather. Watched some "free on demand" hype this weekend for the fight, and you can see even it that...that's where it's going. Assuming Mayweather wins.

 

Mayweather needs to make a STATEMENT in this one, so that people can take him seriously again and stop crediting his victories to minor decisions.....I say he goes for the knockout. This sets up an equal star power bout vs. Pacquaio and I can stop dreaming and start believing.


I don't think Shane's takin Mayweather, Shane's on the wind down and although he surprised people in his last fight vs. Margarito, that's exactly what it was, a surprise. I think he'll beat Clottey but it won't be a overwhelming defeat to the point where he can stack up against Mayweather, that's if Mayweather blows out JMM.

 

While I disagree that Marquez has zero star power, he has a huge Mexican following, but you basically killed Floyd's theory that he will only fight people that draw. Hes turned down many fighters claiming they don't draw. Yet, he chooses to fight a guy that you say has zero star power. He turned down Cotto and Mosley for that same exact reason. Also, as much as Money May talks about how hes such a big draw, it shouldn't matter who hes fighting because he should get big draws regardless.
