Yep, PBF beats JMM easily and having beat the current #2 P4P in a tune-up fight will create a bigger buzz for the super mega huge event fight ahead late this year for PBF...

Tho JMM is the smaller boxer, he did called out PBF and no one can criticize PBF for taking on the smaller boxer whom he's expected to blast out easily... PBF just answering JMM's challenge...

JMM a perfect tune-up opponent for PBF...
.

First off, where has it been said that he WILL be coming out of retirement?

Anything concrete?

Nothing concrete yet but there's so much rumors about PBF's impending return and July 11 is the date being suggested around that's why I started my 1st post of this thread "Granting PBF will..."

ur right,I kind of assumed he was with all the talk on the forum lol. If he did come back though seing as its a "tune up" JMM would be the most lucrative opponent IMO.

Everyone is picking Marquez, but i would like to see him fight a genuine Welterweight in any tune up fight. Clottey or Berto?
Ultimately any Floyd comeback leads to a Mosley or Cotto match up before any thoughts of a Pacman or God forbid Hatton rematch! I am assuming he will be fighting at 147lb so why not a genuine top 10 current Welter?

So what are you talking about? Floyd will never, I repeat, NEVER fight a half decent Welter as a tune up.

Clottey and Berto already have scheduled fights... Clottey to fight Cotto on June 13 (i pick Clottey to win this one) and Berto to fight Juan Urango on May 30...

Who is this "half decent welter" you're referring to??

PBF is about money and prestige. He will take the most money and most prestige for the minimum risk. JMM fits the bill perfectly

PBF-JMM will produce decent money since all Mexican fans will be behind JMM, the current #1 Mexican boxer at the moment after the Margarito fiasco...

Prestige? Well aside from being the #1 Mexican boxer, JMM is also the #2 P4P boxer...

Decent money and so much prestige awaiting for PBF if he chooses JMM as his tune-up fight...

If he is looking for a perfect opponent then why not comeback and fight loud mouthed Nate Campbell? Iffy chin, left lightweight as a beltholder, struggled to make lightweight so 147 should not be a problem and can sell himself. I think the trash talking could sell the fight alone.

Hmmnn... good choice... Two American-African battling it out...
.

I voted other.
I wanted to see PBF fight Cotto before he left and from what i remember PBF was kinda tryin to avoid talks of him.
Its also a pretty good match up.
Cotto fought opposition that PBF fought but unlike PBF, Cotto Destroyed and Ko'ed them.
