i guess i'm forgetting about the american time difference

[simey85]

Really looking forward to this one, Marquez is a formidable opponent but i can only see a Pretty boy win as long as he ain't too rusty! He is just to skillfull!

Predictions??

Mayweather on points?

[Joe King]

Mayweather inside eight.

I just hope it's half as good as the Marquez - Diaz fight.

Mayweather will come into the ring 8-10lbs heavier than Marquez and hes more skillful. I cant see anything other than a Mayweather victory but, it all depends on how rusty he is, hes evened things up by fighting one of the best fighters on the planet without taking a warm up so im looking forward to it. Marquez is in a good position because no one really expects him to win.
Good scrap coming up I think.

The Mayweather start should be on between 4-5am for those of you staying up to watch it.

On November 29, 2007, Márquez announced that he would defend his championship title against Manny Pacquiao, whom he fought to a controversial draw in 2004. On March 15, 2008, Juan Manuel Márquez lost his Super Featherweight Championship to Manny Pacquiao via a highly disputed split decision. Márquez suffered a knockdown in the third round that proved to be the difference in the decision as the remaining rounds were scored dead even. The fight was controversial with some Filipino boxing analysts saying Marquez should be the winner.[9][10] Compubox scoring had Juan Manuel Márquez landing 42/201 (21%) jabs to Pacquiao's 43/314 (14%) jabs, it also had Márquez scoring 130/310 (42%) power punches to Pacquiao's 114/305 (37%) power punches.[11] Richard Schaefer, Golden Boy Promotions CEO, offered a $6 million guarantee to Pacquiao for a rematch. Pacquiao's promoter, Bob Arum, said, “I’m not saying they’ll never fight again, but you have to let it bake for a while”. Pacquiao, for his part, said: "I don't think so, this business is over" as he plans to move up to the lightweight division.







i expect a great boxing match.
