    This is a good point.

    For his fights at welter, Floyd usually walks to the ring at the exact same weight that he weighs in at. He doesn't rehydrate at all. Whereas when Mosley fought Maragrito, they weighed-in at 147, but they both walked to the ring at 160. So in other words, they were a full 2 weight classes bigger than Floyd.

    I agree that Mayweather will win a easy snooze fest against Marquez. Assuming it's on PPV, I won't buy the fight.

    As for Mayweather/Pac, I think that at this point, there isn't much of a size difference between Mayweather and Pac. We've discussed this before, and I know you know the importance of matchups and what we learned from the Judah fight.

    The matchup is what makes this fight interesting. Yes, Floyd's jab is faster than Pac's straight right, but the right hits harder. Judges prefer Pac's style and I don't think he will fold mentally. I also think that if anybody can come up with a game plan to beat Mayweather, it's Roach.

    Sure, I think there is a good chance that Floyd will catch Pac and stop him. I'm not picking Pac. This might be counter intuitive, but I'm not sure I see Mayweather winning a decision. Pac will go out on his shield before he lets Floyd outpoint him. Mayweather by KO or Pac by close decision.
