Who Do I Root For ?

[ICB]

JMM or Floyd Mayweather Jr ? there two of my favorite fighters, and im finding it very hard who too root for. In a way i was glad the fight was called off, so i didn't have to see a loser, but now its back on im hoping its a draw

It's a no brainer for me, Marquez.

I would love to see a humble, brilliant boxer, who doesn't run from the tough challenges in his own division to win, rather than a jacka$$. And I would rather see Marquez get the big money fights after this win, than Mayweather.

Think about it this way too, if Mayweather wins, it will be, oh well he won another fight that he was expected to win, no big deal, but think about the buzz that would be created for boxing if Marquez wins.

MoneyMay all the way

Mayweather for the simple fact it would make the Pac fight a must for next year.

Yeh agreed mate - I would love to see JMM win, but PBF winning is better for boxing imo

I am not calling you out specifically, but the more articles I read the more I hear people (including Pac Man's) talking about Manny meeting Mayweather next year. It's almost (almost) like they are already looking past the soon to be Cotto fight. If Cotto beats Pac Man, then Cotto deserves a shot at Floyd. That should be the fight that is made next year. This is a fight that should have been made long ago.

[BIG H]

I think Cotto will beat Pac

[Fenster]

It would be obscene to cheer for Floyd if you like both equal.

Floyd is a BIG favourite. He picked Marquez for his comeback because he sees him as easy pickings (top money).

nobody is going to lose sleep if Floyd has to face Cotto though, its still a really good fight. IMO Marquez's style works against a pure boxer who is bigger than him like Mayweather, but I can't see his style being effective against Cotto, he doesn't have the mentality to not get hit, and there is no way Marquez could go to war with Cotto. I think Manny has the speed and uses it effectively enough to handle Cotto, but thats just my opinion, I think Cotto is still very dangerous for him. I also think Mayweather brings more to the table against both Pacquiao and Cotto, not that he will do better than Marquez against them(though I think he will), but because he's a much bigger star than Marquez, and neither Manny or Miguel have faced him before.

JMM. He does not cherry pick his spots but is willing to fight the best. Can the same be said for Jr?

[Mar]

....root for boxing as a whole for given us something decent to watch.

[C-Lo]

Both great fighters. One is humble, one is cocky. One is looking to fight the very best, one is looking for a safe fight. One has everything going against him, one has most of the advantages. One is a complete underdog, one is a complete favorite.

If you ask me, I root for Marquez!

I'm gonna order the fight. I don't really care who's gonna win. I just wish it's worth paying for. I mean both of them are counter punchers. Neither of them will throw 80-120 punches per round.

Marquez will be taking all the risks to make it a fight, he ain't the type of guy who wants to be in a boring stinker of a fight. It's a shame he is older, smaller and slower than Floyd, he will have to count on his superb timing and heart to win this one.

Anyway ICE I would support the underdog seeing as your a fan of both.

Let's see

One fighter is an conceited asshole who ducks all fighters within his own natural weight division

and the other

is a hard working, nice guy, who has had to earn everything he has, the hard way.
