    Now that's some bull****.

    Pac didn't have to sacrifice ****. The fact the midget is fighting a 150 lber with significant physical advantages over him is not enough for you haters?

    Now Margo has 6 lbs over him at the weigh in and Pac is cheating him?

    Guess the boxing commisions and sanctioning bodies have got it all wrong in setting up weight divisions? Or maybe they have them only to stop flyweights and strawweights dominating the sport? :patsch

    and for a vacant wbc super welterweight title. It should not be for the title.

    That is the era I love and I love Ray as a fighter, but that was bs. I knew it then and still do. Ray fought Lalonde who was a 175 pound champ (and not a very good one either) for both the 168 and 175 pound title and had Lalonde weigh in at 168 which was a division Lalonde was not champ at or was not fighting there. It was terrible I thought, and the only reason he did it was to win 5 titles to beat Hearns since he didn't figure Hearns would fight 3 days before at the Hilton-I think Ray fought at Caesars, yet Tommy won the WBO title (the fight with Obelmejias for the WBA title was cancelled when Fully Obel got a rib injury near Oct 18. So Hearns got his fifth title 3 days before Ray did. But as a fan of Ray it still bs. Ray should not have been able to win either title. Weakening a champ and then fighting and winning a vacant title when neither guy was fighting at that weight.

    Billy Conn fought for the heavyweight title weighing at 174 vs Joe Louis at 199.5 lbs

    No man in his right mind would think that weighing way less than the limit is an advantage for the smaller fighter.

    There are only weight maximums. Weight minimums do not exist, with probably the sole exception of minimumweight to protect guys who weigh less than 100 lbs in some countries.

    Oh, and to add, Henry Armstrong fought Ceferino Garcia at a weight of 142 lbs vs Garcia's 153 for the MIDDLEWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP OF THE WORLD.

    Speed and endurance if Pac's advantage, so why not take advantage of it? Void fans want Pac to lose the fight so Void will not be so embarrassed, but "if" Pac were to lose the fight it will make their fraud Void look much worse. Void, a proven coward.

    Yeah but the only difference is if you'd said it about Henry Armstrong you wouldn't have had the privacy of the internet to protect you and the humiliation of the public mocking/possible beating up you would get would be more effective in persuading you to find a new sport to follow.

    iF Pac is fighting for the JM title, he should at least weigh above 147. Pac is fighting at a very natural weight for himself and doesn't have to be weighed down, or sluggish by weighing 150. Margo had to weight 150 when there should have been no weight stipulation whatsoever. I think this is an advantage to Pac. Who knows what it took out of Margo making 150.

    That's exactly what it is. Can you imagine if you let them loose on the middle or super middleweights. With their speed advantage, it would be a massacre.

    This thread proves without a shadow of a doubt that a minimumweight fighter is greater than a heavyweight champion because of his physical advantages during a fight.

    Everybody gets an A+

    What a bunch of geniuses we have here on ESB!

    Margo is just happy to be fighting for a title. He a criminal, and happy to be fighting. This is the problem with catchweights. If this was Floyd instead of Pacman, people would be raising holy hell.
