    You know, that's a great idea. I would pay to see that fight. Campbell is a clever veteran who is still hungry for money and recognition. He has a tricky style and he would be motivated to give a strong and entertaining performance. Good idea.

    That is realisitic but you hardly think hes gonna fight a top boxer such as JMM in a 'tune up'

    If he fights JMM on July 11, it ain't a tuneup, agreed, but still, I wouldn't give Marquez much of a chance in this one. Floyd would have the power to put Marquez on the canvas with one shot. Against guys that size, Mayweather actually has power and I just don't seeing it be a good matchup for Marquez. The only way Mayweather loses is if he's looking past him.

    While Marquez has a great style to frustrate Pac, and Pac has a style to give Mayweather problems, Mayweather vs Marquez is a terrible matchup for JMM. Marquez is best when he's up against guys that come right at him. Outboxing great boxers isn't his forte. Even Casamayor gave him some problems.

    I agree with you that JMM has only a very small chance of defeating PBF... For this reason, I consider PBF-JMM match a tune-up fight aside from being the 1st fight of PBF in 15 months...
