    Default Pacquiao = Weight Class Contradiction....let's clear this up please.

    So Pac won't fight JMM below 147, but won't fight Mosley above 142? Is this more of the Pac Plague that's ruining boxing? Oh go ahead Pac ball cuppers have your field day. But real boxing enthusiasts (non pac fans who jump from site to site) Enlighten me please...

    Well i've heard Arum say JMM would have to come up to 147. No way he says Pac is coming down. As far as Mosely goes i have heard nothing of the sort, but it wouldn't suprise me.

    It was from last year,, Roach even said 140 or no fight.
    Surprisingly Shane agreed; but no fight was made.

    he's in the position where he can make these demands

    im not sure if i agree with it or not

    claiming a welterweight title and a light middleweight title where the champions may not have been at their very best because of the catchweight demands?

    doesnt seem right, at the same time im gonna keep watching

    Oh no that's not right Manny Pacquiao would never do anything like that! It can't be true manny is the shining light of hope in boxing some may even say he is christ like. It should be banned on here to say anything negative about the amazing manny pacquiao and every belt in every weight class should just be handed to him and everyone should bow down to him.

    Blah blah blah blah blah vomit.

    If this is true manny can go and suck a fat one in his determination to have an advantage over his oppant. What has this guy got against fighting someone on an even playing field?

    135 - 140 JMM
    140 Bradley or Alexander
    147 Mosley or Berto

    isn't it amazing that after mosley destroyed margarito, pacquiao wanted no part of him. mosley even offered to come down to 140 but still packy declined. fast forward to the present. mayweather jr. easily defeats a washed up mosley, now all of the sudden packy wants this fight? come on, team pacquiao has been exposed as this big fraud. anyone who buys into this is just a blind pactard.

    finally, mayweather jr. made ever concession packy was asking for. i.e. glove size, 10 million dollars a lb. penalty, etc...but when mayweather jr. asked for just one, a simple blood test, pacquiao balked. here's the truth, pacquiao and arum were never going to accept this fight period.

    yup if Pac want's to fight any of these people he should do it at their optimum. then maybe I can start respecting him a little bit.

    I recall the 142 thing - it was said two years ago, but now the Mosley fight will be at 147.

    The other thing is that Pac only weighed 144 at the weigh-in for Margarito when the fight was contracted for 150 (which only benefited Margarito I may add). In the proposed Marquez fight, even if the fight is a welterweight fight Pac won't be adding a ton of weight after the weigh-in. How much did Marquez weigh the night of the fight for Kastidis? I imagine the actual weight difference between the two when the fight is at 147 will be marginal. Everyone bemoans catchweights. You can't have it both ways. Pacquiao fought his last three opponents at 147 or 150 - why should he go down in weight? He's a guy who fights at 145 anyway.

    How is Pac ruining boxing? He's taken a marginalized sport and making it more mainstream. Time Magazine, Jimmy Kimmel, 60 minutes etc.

    Who would you prefer to see Pac fight?

    JMM was 145 on fight night. Really the only way 147 would be a complete disadvantage for Marquez would be through his and his trainer's doing if they decided to put bulk on so they could be 147 at the weigh in, rather than just train as normal and not dehydrate himself to make a lower weight.

    So if one man wins a knife fight he get's to bring a gun to the next one? I would just like to see Pac fight where he should. What's the advantage for? Is it an advantage or a sign of being scared. Fight one guy at a particular weight but not another? See what I'm saying. I used to love watching Pac but now we know every fight is the same type of fight. Same type of opponent and same results. Nice way to coast to the finish line Pac. I used to respect him. Now if I ever happen to see him I will spit on his shoe and call him a bitch. (Yes he would kick my ass) but I won't make my actions contingent on a catch weight. I will spit on this bitch knowing the outcome. Knowing he won't do shit and the police will save me. Hey I'm just like Pac (:
