Mayweather is definitely overlooking Marquez...

[K-Nan]

In the past couple of days, Mayweather has been goaded by the media into focusing on future fight, and more than ever we're seeing Mayweather comment on how he'd "love to fight Manny Pacquiao" and things of that sort.

Coming off of a nearly 2 year layoff and fighting against a VERY live underdog, I think Mayweather might be making a mistake by focusing on the future so much.

when has floyd ever overlook an opponent?

when has floyd ever overlook an opponent?

he got a point though. I've never seen him talk about another fighter he wasn't fighting in 1 of his pre-fight build-ups like this or this much.

but that maybe a good thing and/or a bad thing. I guess we will have to wait and see.

Saying JMM is a mere tuneup is overlooking him for sure.

[The Surgeon]

He can afford to.

[K-Nan]

Marquez has nothing in front of him but Mayweather. This is the only fight in his head right now.

Marquez is just a tune-up for Mayweather, right? Well by that admission you admit the possibility of Floyd not taking this fight as seriously as he should be.

Saying JMM is a mere tuneup is overlooking him for sure.

I'm agreeing. Yeah, Floyd is the heavy favorite and for good reason, but Marquez would never be a tune-up for anybody who is within reasonable weight of his opponent.

You want to know what a tune up opponent looks like? Steve Forbes against Oscar Delahoya.

JMM ain't a tuneup, if Floyd wanted a tuneup he would have chosen Forbes or a fighter like Jennings

I agree. JMM is not a tune-up, but the general consensus is that he is, and I wouldn't doubt that FLoyd is buying into that, considering his uncharacteristic evaluation of future fights when he already has one on his plate. Floyd usually stays talking about the fight at hand and promoting that one. But I feel like he's promoting his return more than anything else.
