I love the hypocritical nature of boxing.
Well there is a big difference if you are talking about a possible Cotto vs Pac fight and floyd vs Marquez.
1)Pac has looked just as strong if not stronger than most his opponents since moving up from 130 while Marquez was being manhandled at 135 by Juan Diaz until he outsmarted him.
2)Pac has great speed that up to this point seems unrivaled. Marquez although a great boxer in his own right doesn't have that equalizer at higher weights.
3)Pac looks comfortable at around 140 and i don't see Marquez beating a top 10 Jr welter.
Good enough?
