    With that said, this fight could potentially end up as a boring tactical chess match between 2 masters of the waiting game (counterpunchers)...

    I wouldn't call it a tune up, Marquez is not a tune up for any fighter.

    Regarding the excitement of the fight, You could be right but i doubt it.

    I expect Mayweather to be more aggressive than normal and Marquez has been alot more aggressive in his more recent fights.

    The fight for me goes two ways.

    1st - Marquez fights on the back foot knowing his best chance to win is make Mayweather come forward and try counter him. I think Mayweather would be more comfortable coming forward because he knows he's bigger.

    2nd - Marquez comes forward and takes the fight to Mayweather, giving Mayweather loads of countering oppurtunities. If Marquez fights this way, he eventually gets stopped.

    Either way though i see Marquez losing.
    I also have JMM losing this one by UD through 12 boring, agonizing rounds...

    This is how I see the fight... First 2 rounds is a super feeling out rounds where the 2 waiting for each other on who will throw first... Next rounds 'til the 12th will have PBF potshoting JMM from range with his 5" reach advantage and much superior speed... JMM will try to press the action at some spots since his only chance of winning is by KO/TKO but PBF is just so much faster, the better counterpuncher and a defensive virtouso that the much smaller JMM's offense can't even make a dent... PBF just happy to potshot JMM to a 12 boring rounds UD victory...
    .
    I can agree there, Mayweather does like to coast in some fights.

    I honestly do believe though that Mayweather wants to make a statement.

    I think he is going for the KO.

    Yeah I can see PBF trying to KO JMM in the late rounds after potshoting JMM successfully for several rounds already... PBF might even score a knockdown but after seeing JMM standing up and throwing again, PBF goes back potshoting and coast to a 12 round boring UD win...
