Historical Return of Floyd Mayweather Jr. to the boxing ring dominating the match with Juan Manuel Marquez
Although not as fast and climatic fight like Pacquiao-Hatton, the match ended leaving Mayweather the victor.
Mayweather topped all the rounds each w/ 10-9 score over Marquez.
Final Score as follows:
Floyd Mayweather 120
Juan Manuel Marquez 107
Well, the match isn’t that exciting. Again, you can hear everywhere Manuel is still a sore loser saying “it’s the weight it’s the weight” issue.
But when Mayweather weighed 146 pounds at Friday’s weigh-in, he was forced to pay a six-figure penalty to Marquez for coming in at more than 144 pounds, Golden Boy Promotions CEO Richard Schaefer said.
Schaefer said the contract the fighters signed in May was for the bout to be at a limit of 147 pounds. But in that contract, each man agreed to a substantial penalty clause for every pound, or fraction thereof, more than 144.

Let’s just hope Mayweather-Pacquiao match will come to realize next year after the upcoming match of Miguel Cotto vs Manny Pacquiao.
