Mayweather vs Marquez Results: Floyd Mayweather Jr. showed why he is the best fighter on the planet with a 12-round drumming of top-10 pound-4-pound fighter Juan Manuel Marquez. After an 18 month layoff Mayweather turned in one of the best performances of his career by winning practically every minute of every round against the 36-year old Mexican legend Marquez. Mayweather was a 4-1 boxing betting odds favorite at the sports books but he performed like a 30-1 favorite. Bet on Boxing at online sportsbook BetUS.com and receive up to 145% in Cash Bonuses.
Mayweather who weighed in 2 lbs. over the contracted weight limit of 144 lbs. looked a full two weight classes larger than Marquez in the ring and used it to his advantage. Mayweather flattened Marquez in the second round with a short blinding left hook that had the Mexican in trouble. Marquez showed incredible recuperative powers by beating the count and regaining his legs to finish the round upright.

Mayweather boxed from the outside with a heavy pinpoint jab and unloaded blitzing rights and hooks with perfect timing. Marquez tried to flurry on occasion but landed arguably 3 clean punches in 12 rounds. Marquez gamely tried to the very end with a bloodied nose and puffy face but Mayweather counterpunched everything he threw and smothered him on the inside.
Mayweather’s speed, defense, conditioning and boxing ability is unrivaled and he should be instilled as a 2-1 boxing betting favorite in a dream fight against Manny Pacquiao .

Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs Juan Manuel Marquez Fight Prediction: The time has come for the super fight of the year when the Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs Juan Manuel Marquez Fight gets under way in the squared circle tonight at 11 PM ET. Online sportsbook BetUS.com has Mayweather installed as the prohibitive favorite at -450 odds but money has been coming in on the underdog Juan Manuel Marquez at +300 odds.
Marquez is hungry to show that he is the most recent great Mexican fighter that is capable of defeating the best fighter on the planet. Does the 36-year old Mexican have enough to get the job done? We turned to the boxing picks experts at VegasSharps.com to get their Floyd Maywether Jr. vs Juan Manuel Marquez fight prediction.
In this fight we expect the brilliance of Floyd Mayweather to show against a fighter that is still very-good but not athletically gifted enough to win. We expect Marquez to try and use his combination punching to try and tag Mayweather but Floyd’s defense is too superior. Marquez is not a natural brawler and is more comfortable at boxing and countering. Marquez will not be able to outbox the best pure boxer in the sport and if he tries to brawl he could get hurt by the naturally stronger man in Mayweather who could out-weigh him by 10 lbs. at fight time. Marquez has enough power to hold his own in the trenches but his skin would shred like paper if he ate enough of Floyd’s lighting shots.
Pretty Boy Floyd has different ways to get the job done against Marquez who really holds no advantage in any department in this fight. Marquez has the will but he does not have the style or hand speed that is necessary to dethrone the pound-4-pound king.
Fight Prediction: Floyd Mayweather Jr. -450 odds (3 UNITS)

The big question on most gambler minds in the Maywether vs Marquez fight is how Juan Manuel Marquez can beat the amazing speed of Floyd Mayweather Jr. The odds makers at online sportsbook BetUS.com have Floyd Mayweather Jr listed as a heavy –450 odds favorite over underdog Juan Manuel Marquez +275 odds. Mayweather’s supersonic speed has been a huge factor to him being the best pound-4-pound fighter on the planet and Marquez is no speed demon. With this disadvantage readily present I turned to legendary NY trainer Milton LaCroix to find out how it is possible to beat Mayweather and his incredible speed.
Here is what Milton LaCroix had to say to VegasSharps.com about the Mayweather vs Marquez fight: “First of all if you want to be able to beat Mayweather you have to be willing to die in that ring and Marquez seems to have that going for him after downing his own urine (chuckles). One way to beat speed is with a well-timed stiff jab. Marquez has a pretty good jab but you need a great jab. Another thing a fighter has to do against Mayweather is not give him an inch to breathe. You have to rough Mayweather up and fight a dirty fight against him. I would tell Marquez to beat up his arms and shoulders to the point that he couldn’t lift his Fu@#ng arms. You not only have to throw punches at Floyd non-stop but also for a every minute of every round which takes great conditioning.”
The OVER in the Mayweather vs Marquez fight is listed at –350 odds and the UNDER is listed at +250 odds at BetUS.com.
In the HBO series Mayweather vs. Marquez 24\7 Marquez has been working on improving his hand speed and it seems that he has gotten quicker. Marquez is known as a counterpuncher but he did throw over 80 punches per round against Juan Diaz in his last fight so he has the ability to volume punch and apply pressure. Marquez does appear to be in incredible shape for this fight but he is 36-years old. Marquez is the smaller man naturally but he has put on a significant amount of muscle and looks strong.
