Nacho Beristain: Marquez doesn't have the speed!

[JazMerkin]

I reckon they're trying to lull Floyd into being underprepared, no way would he come out with this before the fight like this. Beristain is too experienced to do that, he didn't come out talking about ODLH's weight difficulties did he??

Oscar did have weight issues.

I know he did, that's what I was saying, he didn't mention it even though he knew there were problems. I just think he's got too much experience to come out mentioning that without a purpose.

Yeah, I would hope so. But Nacho just doesnt come across as the type of guy to go out of his way to play mind games either. I do think that Marquez will be a lot slower because of the weight, no matter how he put it on. I dint think his frame will carry 147 that well. Im hoping he comes in around 143.

140.5 would be ideal

Its gotta be a ruse to fuck with Floyd's head. Why on earth would someone as experienced as Nacho say that?

Since when was Beristain a smart guy? He has a history of making bad decisions for Marquez (out of the ring).

Wouldn't surprise me if he was telling the truth

Oddly enough, I agree.

Whats it feel like to be right for once?

This can't be anything more than gamesmanship.

Seeing as you've yet to find out I'll explain it to you later.




btw, you have become infected with the pacland smilie

Sort it out.

What a ridiculous thing to come out and say whether it's true or whether he's playing mind games. What an idiot.

I don't believe this article for second.

Maybe he's just trying to psyche up JMM...what's a pro like Juan going to do when he hears his trainer slag him off like that? He's going to step his game up!

For whatever reason Nacho said that he said it in hopes of getting something done.

I think Floyd gets beaten by JMM...he had a tough go with Jose Luis Castillo years ago and since then he hasn't fought any Mexican fighters who have their own little set of boxing tendencies. Also I doubt Floyd has ever had to lose weight like he's going to have to for this fight...it's 6-7 pounds more but that can be a big difference especially as age catches up with you.

Ha ha this is staged worse than the stupid floyd wrestling crap he does. I actually feel a bit for marquez, i think he is an awesome fighter in a fight that really isn't all that fair....look nacho you're trying mind tricks on a guy who is one big mind trip. I think marquez is being asked to do to much, nacho isn't telling us nothing we dont' already know. Your guy is smaller, slower, go down the list, i doubt there is more than maybe one area where marquez beats him on paper. We're being all hyped up and fightnight we'll all come back down as usual. Floyd is not fighting someone especially after a layoff that he isn't 120% positive he can beat. Floyd's real job is trying to get that cash out of our wallets convincing us marquez can win. A guy who can't beat chris john isn't beating mayweather. Would be nice though. But so would the lottery, i think the chances of either are about the same

This has to be just mind games. Nobody in there right mind would say that if it were true, theres no advantage to it?

[rocky55]

no surprise here. this is true, floyd much faster than marquez.
