If it was Mosley that fought Marquez, would the fans be praising Mosley...

One thing to consider... Floyd and Mosley are not the same size. Mosley walks to the ring at around 160, while Floyd is usually high 140s or maybe 150.

Doesn't really answer the thread question, but it's a factor that should be considered.

and ignored. They are Welterweights, end of.

Shane would have stopped Marquez but I highly doubt he would EVER want to fight a lightweight who had never even fought at 140. Shane is a fighter, not a cherry picking coward. I would slag him off for fighting Marquez in the first place so no credit from me if he did batter a little bloke.

New member here. I am so disappointed nowadays with boxing. From the last Diaz fight fiasco to last night.
Am I missing good fights or have they been pretty lackluster recently. Actually the last Diaz fight was pretty good except the wrong guy won.

Exactly my thoughts. Floyd has never been tested. He seems to like to run around and dodge fights all night. Unless of course he has the advantage of a lighter opponent.

If you want to choose to ignore relevant info that might hurt your argument, then go ahead. But ring weights vs. weigh-in weights is the type of info that most knowledgeable boxing fans like to consider.

Yeah but as usual your talking about shit that has nothing to do with the thread. Read the thread starters post and contribute, no weight talk is involved mate.

Actually the second sentence of the first post mentions weight.

I'm going to remove myself from this thread. No offense, but I think your main goal most of the time is to antagonize people and lower the quality of discussion. Which is too bad.

fans wouldn't be praising Mosley for doing the same thing.

Mosley would get no credit because it would be seen as a desperate act...just like Floyds whole carry on. There is nothing cool about LW's going up to WW to face other WW's.
