Besides that if Mayweather is looking at Marqeuz as a tuneup why the hell should he kill himself to make weight?
    Mayweather can't dictate shit. If Marquez doesn't feel he'd be competitive at 140 or higher, the fight won't happen. Kudos to him for knowing boxing's limits and not turning this into a circus. And don't forget, Floyd's been away from boxing for awhile. So he's not in a position to be making outlandish demands.
    Outstanding post. Marquez doesn't go out like a biitch. If he don't like the way things are than he'll walk away. That simple. Yeah I'm sure the money that comes from fighting Mayweather would be great. But some how i doubt Marquez is struggling to eat
    Sure Mayweather has been away from the sport, but how come the biggest news in boxing is if he is coming back? Mayweather is the biggest fish in the pond he can dictate whatever he wants because he will be the one that makes Marquez more money than anyone else, not vice virsa.

    I can totally understand Marquez not selling out to fight a fighter he can't beat, but to complain about the weight is bullshit. Once again, Mayweather isn't a physical fighter, nor is he a huge puncher.

    Why not compromise then like DLH? If Mayweather really wants the fight then he can go to 140 and Marquez can move up to 140. Fairs is fair. After all Mayweather isn't a physical fighter and it has been argued that he is not a natural WW. Marquez was at 130 a year ago and now he's expected to forfeit all weight competitiveness to fight Mayweather?

    Better to walk away and blame it on weight disagreements because that is exactly what it is!
