Had this to watch tonight. Given it went to a UD I'm glad I didn't bother.

work prevented me from watching the fight but I did re-watch JMM v. Diaz earlier in the day and felt really good about Marquez going into this match. JMM's counter-punching style coupled with the ring rust on Mayweather really had me believing this could be an upset, but as usual I was wrong. Mayweather v. Pacquito should be epic, provided it happens.
