Manny Pacquiao Targets Middleweight Division

Not a real weight class if its a catchweight fight

 

I hope this fight pushes through. Win or lose this would be great for pacquiao, pushing himself to the limit before he retires.

 

I would LOVE to see Pacquiao challenge for a middleweight title. Or go for a jr middle not at a catch weight.

 

Its not middleweight if its not at the full middleweight fight. And funny how your calling me an idiot which is coming from a person that scored the first 6 rounds for Maidana. Please do everyone a favor and log off and learn how to box

 

This would be great, Sergio (should he win) vs Pac @155
Cotto (should he not lose too badly) vs Canelo

winner vs winner?

 

He should try for a title at 160 (no CW). He can stay at 150ish and let the other guy rehydrate to 170-80 or what have you.

I think it's an extreme feat, but it would be just about possible for him to win. He wrecked Margarito with a 17 pound weight handicap. He shouldn't impose a catch weight so as not to denigrate the achievement. A full middleweight title for Pacquiao puts him as a top 15 ATG. (If he's not there already).

Win over Mayweather
160 title

These are both difficult yet doable things for Pac IMO. Achieving both is not impossible and it puts him top 5 ATG.

 

Whats a full middleweight?

Middleweight = 154.1-160, anything in that range goes.

 

If PAC fights for a title at light-middle or middle that would be quite a feat but let's not handicap any body with a catch-weight fight . If you go up in search of titles don't expect the defending champs to handicap themselves

 

Have you spunked your pants?

*******s and jokes aside it would be a fantastic achievement as long as Sergio isn't weight drained at the catchweight.

 

Ah the technicality. The fight is a farce if his opponent (Martinez) is forced to put his belt on the line without allowing to weigh at the full middleweight limit of 160.
