    Yeah nothing like the pure, unmitigated heterosexuality of a couple guys trying to "ground and pound" each other.

    Mayweather is going to get knock out in the late round or even early round. Marquez is almost like Manny and I don't think Mayweather is going to be able to defend against the onslaught of punches from Marquez.

    Like what De La Hoya said. It won't be 1,2, or 3 punches he'll be facing. it's going to be 1,2,3 4 and 5 punches.

    One thing I am absolutely certain of, this fight will not be another hatton-pac or pac-de la hoya.

    I hope it becomes a war!

    If Mayweather wasn't a faster counter-puncher then I would agree. Marquez doesn't have Manny's speed.

    Marquez's key to victory is his combinations though. But if anything swings the fight Juan's way, it will be his uppercut.

    But none of that will happen, Mayweather's speed is too much for Juan to defend against. You act as if Floyd is just going to stand there and let Juan throw all those punches.

    If Floyd won't stop JMM in the first 3 rounds he'll get KO late in the fight.

    I agree about Mayweather's speed; however, the one question that I think you could legitimately argue and the one question that Mayweather will need to answer in this fight, which he has not answered in previous fights is can Floyd match up to an opponent who has more desire and pride than any other fighter he has faced thus far. Mayweather, thus far, only has been a master at taking fights which was far in his favor. Even in this fight, Floyd has advantages, but what floyd doesn't realize yet is that I believe JMM is willing to die in that ring. Is Floyd willing to do that?

    Floyd just better hope he can get it to a decision, if Floyd and Marquez goes toe to toe this could get interesting.

    Man, you give Mayweather too much credit. Mayweather's speed? Marquez survive both matches as Manny for goodness sake. The only thing Mayweather got going for him is his cowardly grappling ever single time when he's getting knock around with onslaught of punches. He not fighting against old man De La Hoya and overrated Hatton.

    Mayweather is probably the smartest fighter out there. He won't take it toe to toe.

    Again.........this is why I dont enjoy watching MMA anywhere else besides at my home or at the venue itself.

    I love Boxing but I favor MMA...watching Boxing and the UFC via streaming video on my laptop.
