How does Floyd not get credit for beating a guy 3 years ago

[Jack Napier]

kind of does really considering Marquez gave up more at the scales fighting Pacquiao then when he fought Floyd and he hasn't fought anybody at 147 other then Manny and Floyd.

so its either a huge win for Floyd or Pacquiao is one of the most overrated boxers of all time

Floyd is a WW, Pac is a JWW, Marquez is a LW
Marquez was too small for Floyd, he's not too small for Pac
Pac and JMM are both blown up fighting at WW
Floyd has grown into that weight
Floyd gets 0 credit for beating Marquez at WW
if you think JMM at WW is a big win for Floyd, you're shitting on his res

in a non title fight

Simple, because that same jr welter weight thought it would be a disadvantage for that lightweight. Sadly for him he was mistaken!

the way i see it. giving mayweather credit for the jmm fight would be like
giving credit to canelo for the josesito lopez fight.

Have to agree with this
And i like all three of them.

Marques isn't a legitimate welterweight. Neither is Manny Pacquiao but Manny Pacquiao has shown he can hang in the division with the best of them. Therefore Pacquiao belongs in the division.

The reason Pacquiao and Marquez have had the great fights they've had is because they are a lot closer to each others size and Marquez has a bad style for him.

When it comes to who is bigger it goes:

Mayweather and then Pacquiao and then Marquez.
Pacquiao is right in the middle of the two so he can compete up and down, not having a problem.

Marquez isn't anywhere near Mayweather, in size however. Which is why he doesn't really stand a chance.

Agree
Good logical post, Green K sent.

Floyd dominated him and still could not keep this man down..Juan is amazing and has an unmeasurable heart,he does not know how to spell quit

Those 2 lbs didn't matter for Floyd, the 8lbs did for JMM.
