    For some reason, I think Mayweather is going to come out blazing tomorrow. Very much like he did against Gatti. The fight was supposed to be a catch weight but Floyd weighed in one pound under the welterweight limit. I see Floyd using his size advantage and looking for a knockout.

    very good assesment if you ask me

    only time ive genuinely seen mayweather bothered and unable to counter an opponent was the 1st castillo fight when he constantly landed straight shots that went through floyds guard.

    It ensures you protection as long as the jabbing hand is face up and your able to sideduck any potential counters.
    one dangerous horrible bloke

    Thats the blueprint that Juan must follow for tonights fight.

    He can duplicate what Castillo did that night. What he lacks in size he makes up for in class but Floyd has so many advantages that it would have to be a perfect gameplan from Marquez and thats a big ask.

    He fought two good fights vs Pac and Barrera but two lapses in concentration saw him floored in those fights. For a guy who lost to Norwood and Chris John, I cant see him winning here unless Floyd turns up the worst he has ever been

    Tactically Juan has to work the jab like Oscar. Keep Floyd guessing and whatever he does he cant stay in punching range without throwing like Gatti did. If he does all this he could take a decision but the likely outcome is Floyd on points.

    Simple, JMM just have to be tough and smart. He can either pressure Floyd all night (which is what Floyd wants) and try to drain Floyd of energy or get Floyd to come to him (which Floyd doesn't want to do but he'll accomodate JMM) and try and counter the counterpuncher.

    I think the best way JMM can take it to Floyd is to do both and try to mix Floyd up. JMM needs to lay back early, add pressure later on in the round and maybe try to draw Floyd into some exchanges which JMM can hopefully get the best of him.

    If there are no exchanges then it's going to be a long night for JMM. The good news is JMM can throw pretty much every punch in the book, he's got a right right cross, great uppercut, and he's got a decent hook.

    JMM must dictate the fight and not allow Floyd to settle. Pressure and throw punches when Floyd wants a rest, throw punches in bunches when JMM attacks, countering Floyd when he can. All these things throughout the fight.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    I don't really see it. I cannot find an angle wherein JMM can give it a GO with any advantage.

    Exploit the ring rust by maximizing the length of action on each round maybe... and to hopefully be there with enough firepower to finish off Floyd, if the latter would ever allow for a chink in his armour to surface.

    It is almost that, all avenues lead to a PBF Jr. win, moreso now with the extra poundage, ensuring size supriority.

    If this is a chess match, only a blunder from Lil' Floyd, combined with an opportunistic and an overachieving performance from Juan Manuel Marquez, can deny Floyd Mayweather Jr. from getting the victory.

    Juan must concentrate on Floyd's body. Slow him down and go for the headshots in late rounds.

    Juan will have to use a lot of energy, and be a sharpshooter to execute that game plan.

    Floyd trips over the ropes and breaks his fucking neck.
