147 down to 140 is not an entire division? Mosley was 147 last night

If Pac wants to fight Martinez then go for it. I've been reading that Martinez might well come back to 154 because of the lack of big fights at MW. Equal fight as well. One goes up and the other comes down.
It makes perfect sense to you

By going down it means Pac is going for legacy. Marquez is the Lineal Lightweight champion of the WORLD. they should fight at 135 if Pac is going for Legacy. if not depend his belt at 147. its very simple really.
But Pac isn't even weighing in at 147. It really is less than a division for him.

As for this legacy talk, I don't know what you are talking about. Mosley was for legacy? Margarito? Diaz? He picks and chooses his opponents for money or paper trinkets, on that basis a Marquez fight at 140 makes complete sense. To get the man who many think beat him twice. Otherwise, who is he going to fight? Andre Berto?
