Bottom line is that Marquez is unproven above 135, while Pac is and their will be that question mark next to Floyd's W.
I wasn't really comparing this fight to Pac, as far as i'm concerned, he's fighting JMM and if he wins he fights Pac.. it's not like he's choosing JMM over Pac..

Was just curious of thoughts on this fight mainly regarding weight.. I still don't know how i feel about it.. It's tough, because as i said, a number of people were voting JMM for top p4p after the Diaz fight, but even still, going from 135-143(give or take a few lbs) is a decent gain.. Considering Mayweather was catching flack for fighting "the smaller" Hatton, I can't see PBF getting too much praise if he beats JMM.. But, in the same respect, it's impossible to call it a "tune-up" fight considering JMM's skill.. Regardless i'm still excited to see PBF back in the ring..
