They could have all cared less if Mayweather never came back. At no time even when he was full time and #1 P4P did anyone need or want PBF and it had nothing to do with his skill set.
He is boring, a lousy PPV attraction, he has carefully and I REPEAT CAREFULLY PICKED HIS OPPONENTS OVER THE YEARS, not to say he was scared of anyone but he did always manage to take the least dangerous bouts available in the perspective divisions since his 135lb days.
Floyd is fooling no one the reason he went with Marquez has nothing to do with him being called out or a fight with Manny not being able to be made or as a Warm up. Because no one not even PBF believes Marquez is a warm up.
Floyd took this fight to use as a measuring stick, Marquez has been Manny's biggest challenge and closest in beating him since Morales
Mayweather wants to see how much trouble Marquez gives him to get an idea on what Manny will be like
