Pac and his managers and fanboys are getting on my nerves!

Chris Arreola is the answer

 

Ur prolly right..

 

Whats the benifit there :huh? Vic brings NOOO money at all :-(

 

When you are at the top of your game and considered "THE MAN" you begin to call the shots. No one beats PAC "easily" from 130 to 147 except for maybe Paul williams. He's more than competive against the top WWs and beats all the Jr WWs out there.

PAC hasn't destroyed any chances of making "MORE" big fights. He's had plenty of them already with outstanding success. He'll have more b/c people want to fight him. And why should PAC have to make the sacrafices to place himself at more of a disadvantage when he's been doing that since his fist fight in the US? He deserves to let his camp make calls on his behalf and if the other top fighters want to face him...they should do what it takes to get PAC in the ring and take his top spot. PAC had to do it.

 

Who said he "ran boxing"? I just said he's in the drivers seat....comfortably. If Cotto, Shane and Floyd fight one anther that's great for the sport and fans of boxing. PAC has options at 140. He's done far more than anyone ever expected and PAC's legacy is soild and cemented. He really has nothing left to prove at the age of 30. Which is amazing. Shane needs no one! Cotto needs a big fight and so does floyd based on Floyd wanting to recapture his P4P title. That road leads through PAC. Cotto has options too but he'll loose some of those options when he faces Clottey who I feel will beat him comfortably. Bottom line is PAC is in a rare position that not many fighters enjoy....DLH had it so did Ray leonard in the 80s....They are at the top of the sport and fights fall in to their laps (BIG FIGHTS). PAC needs no one to tee up his legacy...it's already a done deal...so is Shanes. Floyd too but its not as solid as his boxing ability...a great fighter with a good resume isn't exactly how you wnat to be remembered.

 

Pacquiao has no business fighting at 147 and the fact that he fought Oscar at this weight only goes to show:

1. They were desperate to make the fight.
2. They knew it was very winnable.
3. It was way too much money to pass up.

This is no different than Floyd's fight at 154 with Oscar in the sense that he has no business fighting at this weight and there should be no call for him to do so.

It is reasonable for Pacquiao and his team to ask the fight to be at a catch weight, there is nothing "prima donna" about this request.

Mosley & Cotto have limited options themselves as their next best options outside of the Pacquiao fight are themselves or a fight with PBF. PBF has already stated he has no interest at this point in fighting Mosley and Cotto is barely mentioned (and may not be viable if he does not get past Clottey).

At this point Pacquiao is not negotiating himself out of match-ups based on the fact that his request is reasonable and the fighters are interested in coming to a compromise.

Unreasonable would be if Pacquaio was asking Cotto and Mosley to come down to 140 to fight him. As many PBF supports have stated that Floyd apparently is really a natural 140 pounder a catch weight between 140 and 147 is more than reasonable.

Nobody is saying Pacquiao is a monster at 147 and will rule the division. Most would agree at the present time 140 is his best weight. Pacquiao vs Margarito makes about as much sense as JMM vs Floyd but then again here we are. :silly

 

You're very emotional aren't you... Seriously... He has ALL the cards right now therefore he should take advantage of that. That's the most logical choice for him and Manny does not need Cotto, Shane, and Floyd either. He's already a legend; he became a champion is 6 different weight divisions, and I believe he is the only boxer in history that became the lineal champ in 5 weight division (112, 122, 126, 130, 140). There are other fighters that would fight him. Valero, Marquez.... etc. Margacheto VS Pacquiao? You've got to be joking....

 

True. I heard that it was Oscar's idea that they should fight at 147.

 

140 has Tim bradley, Holt, Torres, witter ect...there are some good fights to be made. Should PAC FINALLY decide to stay put and stop moving up in wieght to chase the BIG named opponents....he could actually clear out the division and call it a career. Like I said....if the BIGGER fighters want to make the fight..they'll do what PAC did in order to get where he's at.....make sacrafices...even if it puts them at a disadvantage and meet the requirments of the one who is calling the shots. Either way there are great fights out ther for the pack at 147 and for PAC at 140 or somewhere in between 147 and 140.

Oh...but you are correct...there are NO MEGA fights at 140 at this point....MAYBE judah. He's still has a great name. The Mega fights are at WW...but the Top Dawg resides at 140. When DLH was in this position with his popularitiy you saw guys coming down to meet him. PAC will enjoy the same furits of his labor.
