    Since pac won't die by the gun that he lives by, jmm should just sign for 147 and come in at whatever weight that he wants to under 147

    This is the fight that Roach wants because it is easiest fight at 147. He doesn't have to contend with the risk of being knocked out.

    Bull****. What is your source. PBF weighed in at 146, and he has never gained more than 5 pounds on fight night.

    floyd looked like a tank versus jmm that night. and marquez felt like floyd outweigh him by as much as 20 pounds.

    Because at the time Pacquaio was already coming up two weight divisions. ODLH went down one to where he used to fight. The fight was already written off as a freak show and a joke by most people.

    No one gave Pacquaio a chance to win.

    Straight from Marquez's mouth (Diaz presser).
    This content is protected


    Marquez: "We knew going into the fight it was going to be a very difficult, a very tough task but we were ready to take him on. But, what made it a little more difficult was also the weight, the excess weight that Mayweather had. It was approximately 15 pounds once we got inside the ring."



    and from another article:

    “Mayweather is a great fighter, but he was very heavy for me,” said Marquez, whose only fight above 135 pounds was against Mayweather.

    “Yes, I think if Mayweather had fought at 135 or 140 it would have been a different fight.”

    Not only did Mayweather not fight Marquez at lightweight, he didn’t fight at the agreed-upon 144 pounds, either.

    On the day of the weigh-in, Mayweather came in at 146 pounds. Although the infraction cost him $600,000 of his purse, Marquez believes he did it on purpose.

    By the night of the fight, Marquez guesses Mayweather outweighed him by about 15 pounds.

    “I think Mayweather didn’t want to lose more weight because it’s very important,” Marquez said.

    “He took that advantage. At first I was surprised and I felt very angry, but I don’t know what I could have done.”

    nope. it's blatant and premeditated stupidity combined with selective memory to feed their hate. it's believing what you want to believe so long as it fits your agenda.
