If Marquez is clearly not as effective at this weight, how much credit......

Mayweather has already foregone any respect he might have earned with this fight win, lose or draw. His actions are a disgrace. This fight has always been marketed as a catch weight fight and a day before the fight we all find that Mayweather was a good kilo beyond that and wasn't even interested in trying to make it.

Mayweathers stock has fallen whether his supporters like it or not. Making a fight with a Lightweight was bad enough, but to now emphasise the size polarity even more with this carry on is sickening. Mayweather can blame his lack of popularity on race as much as he likes but the simple truth is that is his own selfish actions that make people loath him.

Now every fighter should put in some kind of million dollar a pound penalty whenever they fight Mayweather because he is obviously a snake who will do whatever he can to get an advantage whether we the public like it or not.

People bringing up Mayweathers last minute contract changes are failing to realise that this information should have been made clear much sooner. If indeed it ever existed at all. It all points to Mayweather never having had any intention of trying to make 144 pounds.
