Love em both 2 of my favorites, my loyalty is with Mayweather 1st and foremost and I do believe Floyd will stop him late, though there is a part of me that is rooting for JMM to do something special, I cant think of a classier fighter and warrior who has put on so many sensational battles..
I just finished watching JMM vs Diaz again, and early on you could see JMM wasnt comfortable with the pace and pressure, in between rounds early on he looked knackered and weary but yet he willed himself on through the storm of Diaz exceeding his punch out put and making the adjustments despite taking some good punishment on his way to a heart stopping sizzling knock out...
The guy is a special fighter a blood and guts competitor who is cerebral and dynamic to go along with unrelenting determination and thats why he is my favorite all time Mexican fighter because when he is in the ring you know he always seems to be in complete control or always a moment away from it even if he faces adversity...
I just think that Floyd is to much coupled with the size advantage, Mayweather will force Juan to apply the pressure and that will negate some of his counter punching oppurtunities... I havent decided what Floyd is showing up since the guy has more in his bag of tricks than Chris Angel..
Will he let Juan come to him? Will he press the action? Will he take risks and and open up on Juan with his superior athleticism and offense? or will he lay back counterpunch and potshot till Juan gets unraveled and takes risks leaving himself exposed and vulnerable? All I know is Juan is fighting a guy just as determined, intelligent and unbending will to win along with a lock down defense and Iron chin...
This is going to be a great fight and if Floyd loses to Juan it wont even be that devestating as a fan of Mayweather since I love em both and Juan has all my respect and deserves his due for all his blood, sweat and tears he's laid out for us every time he gets in the ring.....
Good Luck to both and may the best fighter win
