Mayweather will attempt to KO Marquez
Can he do it? I dont know, but I def. think Floyd is going to come out swinging and feeling like the bigger man trying to push the smaller Marquez around to try to get an early KO and re-establish himself in the P4P race.
If this does happen it will be JMM's biggest oppurtunity to win rounds an sail to win a SD, but also the biggest risk in getting caught himself, Juan gets up and has lots of heart but he does get caught, and now he will be caught by a bigger maybe faster Mayweather.
Juan has to have lots of courage and heart to stand up in the first 5 rounds which will be his heardest but if he take 3 out of those rounds he can win a decision.
Either way, cant wait...This may surprise us, it could be Fight of the year.

Floyd never comes out swinging. Against a cagey fighter like Marquez, I think he'll force Marquez to be the aggressor and attempt to counter punch the counter puncher. After 2 years out, no way do I see Floyd coming out swinging.

Re: Mayweather will attempt to KO Marquez
I doubt it, and if Floyd says that it's just to sell the fight.

Re: Mayweather will attempt to KO Marquez
Well Floyd's not fighting Gatti or SHatton this time;D I could see him stopping JMM real late in the fight but I'd bet it goes to a decision.

Floyd has come out swinging plenty of times, I don't think he will, but the more this is a war IMO the worse it is for Marquez because Mayweather stays so sharp late in fights, he is still sharp even when he is throwing down, and he will getting hit a lot less than MArquez.

Re: Mayweather will attempt to KO Marquez
If it's there he'll take it....why would Floyd want it to last long? Manny Pacquiao just 1 upped Floyd vs De la Hoya AND Hatton. I do think Floyd will be careful because JMM is a dangerously smart fighter...who cares if he's fighting out of his weight class, JMM and his trainer will be prepared for that.

Re: Mayweather will attempt to KO Marquez
I hope so.Been thinking about him possibly being a little over confident,cough...more so than usual.With the size,fresher of the two and recieving a bit of a backlash in some media.He might just step in off some fast connects and go for it all...,make a statement w/Manny being in the back of his mind.
Marquez will be there,hes not going anywhere,and will sit down in between some flurries he hopes.Thinking Mayweather runs a better chance of cutting Marquez up resulting in a TKO rather than a clean KO.
-
Re: Mayweather will attempt to KO Marquez
Can anybody mention a Floyd fight where he has come out the aggressor. From what I have seen of him he will move, pot shot, break his opponent down and as he sees/ feels them get weaker he will then start to step it up.
If this goes how I think it will Floyd will get a UD with the last few rounds seeing Marquez hit more and hurt, maybe even late TKO
-
Re: Mayweather will attempt to KO Marquez
I can imagine Floyd will either try to KO Marquez or totally dominate him so he can send the message to Pac "Look at how easily I disposed of the guy who beat you twice in the eyes of many boxing experts, commentators, and boxers" just like Pac sent a message to Floyd by beating Hatton faster.

When? I can't recall a time he has come out the more aggressive fighter. He is never so careless as to come out swinging.

Re: Mayweather will attempt to KO Marquez
He said the same thing when he fought Oscar and we see how that went. It will be a typical Floyd fight with him winning a comfortable decision.

It depends what you consider swinging, but against Phillip N'Dou, Burton, Sosa, Gatti, G. Hernandez, plenty of guys earlier on in his career.

Re: Mayweather will attempt to KO Marquez
What Mayweather means when he says that is:
"I'm going to give away around or two and then dial everything in and cruise to a wide victory on the scorecards."

Mayweather fights the style necessary to beat whomever he is fighting. If he knows he can't impose his will or beat them by slugging he won't do it. But if its someone he can impose on he will. He is a fighter who has an uncanny ability to adapt.

Re: Mayweather will attempt to KO Marquez
I highly doubt PBF will try to KO JMM specially in the early rounds... PBF is a play safe defensive master... He's too careful not to get hit... Maybe PBF will go at it in the late rounds if he has much success potshotting JMM from range in the earlier rounds which PBF can easily do since he has a 5" reach advantage over JMM and he has very good timing and accuracy too...
If this goes to a decision, it's highly probable that JMM will lose in this fight... JMM's style is not judge friendly that's why he lost mostly all his close fights and then called them robberies... JMM's chance to win is by knocking out PBF which is a very difficult task...

Re: Mayweather will attempt to KO Marquez
Knockdown maybe, kayo NOT. I don't see Marquez being worn out late in the fight or getting stupidly caught by a single punch from PBF either unless Mayweather fights a Juan Diaz pace. This fight will be as close as PAC vs JMM encounters. Like I said before PBF is lucky that JMM is naturally smaller than him.
-
Re: Mayweather will attempt to KO Marquez
Can't see him coming out gunning for a KO from the off, not really his style espec against someone who might just gime him a fright. Obviously he will take it if it comes but I can see this being a pretty close decision despite the size difference. PBF will stay back and try to draw JMM in and pick him off.
If he was dominating the fight and it was looking easy I wonder if he would risk putting some rounds in the bank to get rid of the rust ( JMM fans don't shoot me for suggesting it !!).
If he wants to get back to being top dog I really think PBF needs to pour on the style somehow and he can't allow this to be a dull affair with him going on the backfoot and countering the whole night.

Re: Mayweather will attempt to KO Marquez
IMO: they are both counter punchers. when you do the math.... it's a waiting game. Marquez will apply more pressure than Floyd but all that does is get the fighters around the ring. The more accurate either fighter is the slower the pace of the fight and so on and on and on....

Not if Mayweather is quick enough to hit and not be hit.

This was where I was coming from in saying that PBF needs to be the one chasing the fight and setting the pressure, I don't think he can just sit back and wait to counter, not if he wants to prove he is 'the man' again.I'm just hoping it's not a dull chess match with each trying to out wait the other.

Re: Mayweather will attempt to KO Marquez
2 Huge egos in line here. It will not be the ultimate barn burner but it will not be boring either. Both fighters would want to shine brightest and prove to the whole world why they consider themselves the best.
Go Marquez!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I wouldn't describe Marquez as having a huge ego. He certainly doesn't strike me as being any more egotistical than any other high-level boxer.

Yea... yea.... I heard all this before. How many times have we heard all this new stuff a fighter is going to do in the ring only to see him do the same thing he's always done. Mayweather aggressive! give me a break! one good shot from Marquez and Mayweather backs up like he always does looking to counter. Talk about being gun shy! This is exactly why I won't pay to watch dancers. They are programmed to run and it's just makes me all flustered because I want to see toe to toe action from real warriors. Now, don't get me wrong. I'm not saying Mayweather can't go toe to toe or can't be a brawler, I'm just saying it's not in his blood. Even if Mayweather sets out to make a ko, he'll abandon the plan right after he gets tagged with two or three good shots from Marquez making him pay the price for being aggressive.

if it gets the job done id certainly take dancing my way to become the best fighter in the world instead of getting beat up like hatton/gatti
Marquez has to box out of his skin, look to draw mayweather into a slug out as often as possible and just hope he manages to land solid hard punches that floyd has trouble dealing with.
Otherwise i just see a routine floyd win with maybe even a late stoppage

Re: Mayweather will attempt to KO Marquez
I think Mayweather is out to prove himself big time.
I see him fighting on the backfoot early and coming forward late on but overall being more aggressive than normal because he knows he's the bigger man.
Juan Diaz was able to rock Marquez so Mayweather certainly can stop Marquez.
I expect Mayweather to win by TKO.
I'm not happy with what Mayweather is doing though.
He should not be fighting Marquez, Marquez is a natural super featherweight where Mayweather is naturally a welterweight now.
I won't be giving him much credit for beating a blown up Marquez regardless of how good a fighter Marquez is.
one last thing.....
WAR DINAMITA!!!!!

I think this will be the likely thought process of Mayweather...he has to to prove he is the best...the question is can he?

If Marquez is too small why isn't Pacquiao?
You can say because Pacquiao moved up and proved himself, you haven't even given Marquez the chance to prove himself. Didn't Shane Mosley jump from 135 to 147 for Oscar? In Oscar;s prime when 147 was his main weight? Give Marquez some credit he is a great fighter, don't doubt him. And it's not liek the weight will be THAT big of a factor, it's not like Mayweather is the type to try to bully a fighter, he is a counter puncher, he won't be leaning on Marquez and using his weight anyway.

Re: Mayweather will attempt to KO Marquez
im not so sure on a KO maybe a TKO due to cuts since marquez has been gettin cut easy lately. but with floyd you never know.

Re: Mayweather will attempt to KO Marquez
I think the sport of boxing has demonstrated one thing if not anything else, and that is anything can happen, I've seen a guy with less power than Marquez stun Mayweather while guys like Oscar De La Hoya, Castillo, Corrales, Ricky Hatton failed to do so. I've seen Hatton take punches from Mayweather for 10 rounds, and survive clean blows from Kostya Tszyu only to be knocked out cold by Pacquiao in 2 rounds. I've seen Margarito walk through punches by Cotto and Cintron, only to be KO'ed by a lighter puncher in Mosley(I am going by Cotto-Mosley where Cotto landed the way harder shots). I think its unlikely either guy will be stopped based on the past few years, but it could happen, and it could happen either way.
