Las Vegas. 19th September. Live Sky Sports 1. (20th semptember sunday morning :P)
Tape it, stay up to watch it, whatever you do see this fight 'cos Floyd Mayweather hasn't boxed in 2 years (since KOing hatton in 10) and his "tune up" fight is against Juan Manuel Marquez, the worlds no. 2 p4p. Now Floyd is hoping his gonna be able to pick on the smaller guy, PBF has spent the late stage his career at 147 pounds, whereas marquez is a 135 pounder, and this is happening at 144 pounds. But with the 2 year lay off, Mayweather must have been walking around at 150+ for some time? so hes gonna have to pull his ass down a fair few pounds, but Marquez can eat and train his ass off which should keep him more focused and in a better mind set...
Or floyd been planning this for a year or so and has already lost the weight :/ i just hope his own hype and unbeaten record has gone to his head, will be a fight to remeber if Floyd underestimates Marquez.

Floyd weighed in at 146pounds... he had too fork out 500k too marquez to change the contract this morning to a 147 limit. Marquez weighed in at 142.
After redydtrating and eating, Mayweahters gonna have about 8-10 pounds over marquez. mehhhh this fights just lost what little credability it had
