Pacman vs JMM 11/5 2011 at.........145

[Jimanuel Boogustus]

JMM fought Floyd at 147 so there should be no problem if he fights Pac at 145.

145 is Pac's ideal weight and no sensible person would go back to 140 when his best weight is at 145 or at 147.

JMM's the challenger and Pac's the Champ.

Pac's the bigger draw and Pac has won his last fight against JMM (at least officially and regardless of how you felt about that fight).

So who do you think should have a say in this fight?

Of course by logic, it should be Pac.

If Marquez really wants to fight Pac, he should do it just like how Pac fought De La Hoya at 147 when he hasn't tested the division yet.

Oh right so when Cotto defended his belt at 145 for Pacquiao's sake, that was part of the same logic was it?

Personally I'd rather this fight not happen at all.

Could be...

Pac's the bigger draw than Cotto.

Cotto wanted to fight Pac more.

Pac does not need Cotto that time. Besides, Cotto was the biggest risk Pac had during that time. And indeed Cotto proved to be too strong for Pac. Remember what happened to Pac after that fight?

imo, 144lbs should be the highest this fight should be made if its going to be at a catchweight. it's the same weight floyd-jmm agreed to when they fought although floyd didn't bother making weight. the lower the weight the more interest this fight is going to generate with the thinking that marquez will be more competitive. i would love to see this fight at 140lbs coz i remeber roach saying manny can still comfortably make the jr. welterweight limit. i don't know though if it's going to be for manny's welterweight belt then it would look ridiculous if will be at any weight lower than 142lbs.
