Mayweather just raised the ante against Paq. He won almost every round and systematically dismantled an excellent fighter that could go glove to glove with paq while not taking more than a couple shots the whole night.

Paq is lightening quick and very powerful...but is he quick enough for a guy who has the patience of a saint and doesn't make mistakes?

Mayweather should fight Brock Lesnar for world champion super heel. Seriously though this fight is making me doubt Pacman's chances to beat Mayweather. Marquez basically could have been punching air the entire time.

I'm sure there will be a high def .MKV somewhere within a half hour.

I watched Marquez run up a hill throwing rocks, eating raw eggs and drinking his own pee on the HBO series. This is how I knew he was doomed. That Rocky shit only works in the movies.

Ducking Manny? LOL Manny fought Marquez twice, one time it was a draw, and the other a split decision that a good number of people thought Manny didn't deserve. Even if he did deserve the W in that decision, the judges couldn't all agree on it. Floyd just embarrassed Marquez. So why is Mayweather ducking a dude who could barely beat a guy that he made look like an amateur. Mayweather would absolutely decimate Manny. He might win 1 round that's it, Floyd is much better on every level. Manny doesn't even have a punchers chance here. Hell Manny might not win in a 3rd fight again the guy Floyd just picked apart.

Mayweather is possibly the greatest ever, Manny is just a really good boxer. There's a huge difference in the skill level. Mayweather wants $$$ beating Marquez sets up a HUGE payday. think about it, if he had fought Manny this time, he would have gotten his 10 million. But by embarrassing a fighter Manny squeaked by. He upped his $$$ way more. Now instead of 10, he'll get 20 million to easily beat Manny. Seems like a smart business man to me.

He's looking pretty genius right now (by his actions atleast, mouth aside, lol.)

He's easy to hate, it helps him make more $$$ because people will pay to watch him fight in hopes he loses. Bottom line is, nobody is even close to him in boxing skills. Mosley would be the closest, but he's getting old. Manny? Cotto? Either would be lucky to win 2 rounds against Floyd. Mosley Vs Mayweather is more interesting than anyone else, even at his age, Mosley has the best shot of anyone.

He runs his mouth for a reason, all stories outside of boxing point to him being a pretty cool, family man who does charity work and is very friendly. But that kind of persona wouldn't be getting him $10 million dollar pay days. Imagine all the people who spent $60 on the PPV in hopes to see his ass get smashed. Only to watch him toy with a world class champ for 12 rounds like he was sparing with an up & comer. He's laughing all the way to the bank and the same idiots who shelled out 60 bones this time will do the same next time he fights. Only to go threw the same heartbreak when he picks apart whoever he's facing. And again he'll be laughing all the way to the bank.

That's wrong. De La Hoya is the biggest ppv draw ever and he's the antithesis of mayweather. Its not posturing, he's simply a dipsh!t when he opens his mouth to the media.

However he has had superior boxing skills. He gets huge paydays because of his skills, despite his antics due to his dominance in the sport. Sure he's polarizing to many...no doubt it indirectly adds to his publicity and ppv's instead of having a cardboard wallflower personality, but its nothing like the affect would be when having the support of the masses. His mouth and attitude are the reasons he doesn't get more appreciation for his accomplishments (not his skin color, lol.)

Two things..

a) Manny is surprisingly big..while Marquez never fought above 135 before last night, Manny fought De La Hoya at 147 and was actually 148.5 on fight night. Give him some time to bulk up some more and size won't be much of an advantage for Floyd.
b) If we want to compare a to b and b to c to make an a to c comparison, Manny was able to TKO Oscar and absolutely obliterate Ricky Hatton, two guys that went the distance with Floyd, so using Marquez as an indicator is just as invalid.

the funny thing is, only the heavyweight division matters anymore and that's also so pathetically irrelevant today.

I agree the heavyweight division is hurting now, but as for these guys, feel free to name a PPV event larger than De La Hoya/Mayweather a couple years ago...

Yeah, that was HUGE.

De La Hoya/Mayweather was the largest ever but I think May/Paq will be larger since its been so anticipated, particularly after last night.
