    Yep!

    Ps: on a sidenote, I think its a bit much of ESPN to charge €12 or whatever they do a month, and then show 2 games from the Europa Cup that are "Unavailable for viewers in ROI" :mad:

    I think Mayweather will win, but it will be tight. I know Marquez has lost four times but he has had 14 more fights also. Should be a cracker. Don't mind if Mayweather wins as I'm itching to see him and Pacman fight.

    Lads cant wait for this one...Was watching a interview with pretty boy yesterday and he looks so laid back and focused its unreal.Also he doesnt seem as cocky now as he was when he was getting ready to face Ricky Hatton.Im going for pretty boy in this one, but i can see it being a classic fight.

    I know the show starts at 2am, But id say this fight could be nearer the half 3 or 4 o clock...would that be right?

    This will be a cracker think pretty boy will be pushed very close Marquez ran the Pac man close & should have won at least 1 of those fights imo.

    This is a heart vs skill match for me but how much will the ring rust come into it i don't know fcuk it i'll go out on a limb & say Marquez by ko.

    Pacman has to get by Cotto first;)

    Just looking at the odds there, i'm going for;

    Mayweather to win by KO/TKO @ 2/1

    Couple of smaller bets on Mayweather to win in rounds 7, 8 & 9

    I believe Triple H from WWE will be escorting Mayweather to the ring before the fight. I am sure Batista escorted Pacman to the ring a few fights ago.

    This is shaping up to be a great fight. With Mayweather being gone so long, its going to be nice to see if he can cope with Marquez's forward style of fighting. If you'd asked me after the Mayweather-Hatton fight, who would win between Mayweather-Marquez, Id only mutter the name Floyd Mayweather. Now though, Mayweather has had a long break away from the sport, and I only feel that this is more of a hinderance than a help to him. Having said that, there is no doubting Mayweather's ability to tire a fighter with his dodge and weave style of defence, and unstoppable form of attack. I just wonder if he'll be able to pick up where he left off so quickly. Marquez is hard to put away, and has a reputation of being able to take a beating and finish off his aggressor in the process. At stake is a lucrative showdown with Manny Pacquiao, which neither fighter will want to pass up. This is why I think tonight we are going to witness a truly great fight. Mayweather wants to sit high on his perch again. While Marquez surely wants another crack at Pacquiao, after the battles we have witnessed between them before. Thats why tonight, although I go with a Mayweather victory on points, cannot write Marquez off possibly upsetting the former King, due to Mayweather's long break and lack off competitive ring experience.
