JMM: I'll fight him at any weight he wants, not a problem since he was 148

Correct me if I'm wrong, but if Sugar Shane is finished because of his performance against Floyd, then how does Marquez escape that criticism?

Mosley at least hurt Floyd. Marquez lost 120-108 on all scorecards

For the record I believe Marquez loses to Mosley.

I think most of us conclude that mosley is finished not just due to the pbf outing but also the mora outing...granted he's looked less than spectacular above welterweight before but he is 38 or something like that these days coming of 2 bad showings. Fight pbs, if that can't be made berto or bradley, or jmm. Not mosley, or cotto yet again.

I assume the argument would go that while Marquez lost to Mayweather, was way out of his weightclass and he rebounded with some impressive performances over decent, though not great, opposition. Mosley looked awful against Sergio Mora and appears to be seriously on the slide.

I agree. However, JMM said it would not matter where he fights pac welterweight or lightweight. Clearly it did matter against Floyd. Maybe he does not believe Pac and Floyd are the same size.

But it's obvious that JMM and Pacquiao are closer in size than JMM and PBF, regardless of what weight Pacquiao is current campaigning at.

I cant believe everyone is saying "Shane did better against mayweather obviously hed be better against pac" or indicating that JMM looked bad against Mayweather at a higher weight so obvisouly the weight was the issue.

Has anyone here ever thought that maybe...and only just maybe Floyd is a completely different fighter with a completely different style to pac? Styles make fights and we all know JMM has awesome boxing ability and he got outboxed by a better boxer in mayweather. Pac is a good boxer but his ability is more in brawling, he outslugs sluggers because he is quick and has better movement then the straight forward brawler. Now JMM has great timing (as seen vs katsidis where he was able time kats between punches and land combos as kats was trying to load up) and we all know what is required to compete with speed....timing. JMM had the timing to compete with mayweather but not the boxing ability as floyds defence is just waaaay too good. Where as pac leaves himself open which allows JMM to capitalise on openings when pac does those flurries. So far no one has been able to capitalise on that as they arent that sort of boxer.

Mosley these days considers himself a power puncher and just looks to unload the right hand. He only really had two good rounds against mayweather and this is because mosley was fighting a one dimensional fight, instead of being the boxer puncher he was being the puncher and every puncher that has faced floyd ends up being schooled. Pac has destroyed guys who just want to stand and trade (mosley in a nutshell these days) and we all know mosley doesnt have the stamina to trade all night so that would end up in a one sided beat down with either a late tko or lopside decision for pac. I disagree with everyone who says pac is a different animal at higher weight classes, to me he hasnt changed. He has always eaten brawlers alive for the fact he is way quicker and thats all he has done so far. Who was the last actual boxer he fought? You cant call Cotto a boxer, he was always more of a brawler. Pac has not fought a guy with the boxing skill of JMM since moving up, this fight would still be close no matter what weight division especially since JMM has the experience of fighting pac before where as these other poor souls have been just been shell shocked in the first round and not knowing what to expect.


Well thats my opinion anyway.
