So much for Mayweather-Marquez

[JazMerkin]

Smart move by Marquez. He ain't going to sell his soul and put himself at a disadvantage like Hatton did just for money

Hatton is no smaller than PBF naturally. The fact this comes from Beristain makes it suspect. I reckon the fight still gets made at like 143 or something. But JMM hopefully will be smart & not simply be Floyd's tune-up

There were a lot of advantages in Floyds favour, not just the weight the fight was at.

Yeah, of course Hatton had it all against him

The weight argument was bollocks and only came up after the fight to try and find some excuses for Ricky. He may not be a natural welterweight, but he was also not fighting a natural welterweight, if anything Hatton is a naturally bigger more muscled fighter than Mayweather.

Cortez wasn't great for Ricky, but he was a lot better than Parris was for Tszyu, although of course there was obviously the advantage in Floyd's favour that he is an infinitely more talented fighter than Hatton could ever be
