IF . . . JMM wants Pac then he should fight at Pac's weight of 147. Pac doesn't need JMM . . . so JMM has no right dictating his term IF EVER a negotiation on this gets started. Team JMM should have learned from the past negotiations where they end up empty handed. :deal
**** Ariza. How does he know on what weight Pac would perform best? He is geting paid to plan the nutritional part of Pac's training, the guy is a nutritionist, he belongs to the kitchen.
well, that's still an additional 4.6 lbs. that pac has to drain himself to make 140 and that is definitely a lot. remember that ppl here were up in arms when cotto had to drain himself an additional 1 lb. from his last weigh-in to fight pac. like i said before, pac isn't accustomed anymore to draining himself to make weight. even if this fight happens @147, there will actually be just a 3 lb difference in their actual fighting weights (148 vs. 145). jmm can actually weigh-in at whatever weight he's comfortable at. therefore, why the need to drain pac? or does the TS want pac to be weakened so that jmm has a better chance to win?
That's pure speculation. Enough already. Last time Pac fought at 140 was almost 2 years ago. Mayweather was at 147 the same amount of time and he couldn't get down to 140 or a catchweight for Hatton. Ideally if JMM had any negotiating power he could get a catchweight of 144-45, but unfortunately for JMM Pac holds all the leverage and the fight happens on his terms or it doesn't happen at all.
Let them come whatever weight they want. They'll be only a few lbs difference come fight night anyway.
They can come in whatever weight they want, and come fightnight there will be just a couple of pounds between them, so need to argue over the weight.:smooch
140 JMM stands no chance at anything higher anyone with any sense knows he has no business at any weight higher.
What would making it 140 accomplished? You would just drain them both before hydrating to their natural weight, the difference is Pacquiao will have to drain harder. The only incentive for team Pac to take the fight at 140 is if he first beat Bradley or Khan for the rank at jww. Otherwise there's no point.
I don't think Pac will go down to 135 again. His walking weight is at 150. He won't allow himself to get weight drained again.
Look how these *******s change the goal posts. First it was pac ain't a natural WW now it's if marquez wants pac he should fight at 147. LMAO Just face it marquez spanked pac the 2nd time round and you guys don't want to see your hero get outclassed again by the pee drinker, because if that happens everything pac has accomplished at 147 goes down the drain.
You've to spank your face to wake up from your dream. You need to realize that Pac is in the driver's seat. If Marquez don't agree, there will be no fight. He can't dictate his terms even if he beat those B fighters in 135.
