    I think they're serious if Martinez really wants a piece of Pac. Of course, in Pac's terms, not his.

    Why should the Marquez fight be at 140? It's for Pac's WW title. It's so funny when these assholes say Pac is too big at 147 when they are the same people who say Marquez can beat Cotto, Clottey, Margarito, and Mosley (who are much bigger fighters than Pac). So why the hell is Pac too big now? LOL. It's also funny that it's okay for Pac to fight Martinez at 154, in which Martinez will outweight Pac by 20 or more pounds on fight night, but a Pac fighting Marquez at WW isn't.

    I'm joining this conversition late, but is there a source. This is not out of chactaor of team Pacquiao but having the middleweight champion go down to welterweight seemes outragious even for Team Pacquiao.

    People (including Roach) knows Martinez cannot make 147 . . . so Roach is simply saying . . . "NO FIGHT". :yep

    and the middleweight champ calling out a small welterweight, who weighed 25lbs less than him in their respective last fights is not outrageous?

    Sure it's outragious but not on the same level. Pacquiao is a former light middle weight champion. Surely he could make 154.

    JMM steps into the ring at 145 lbs.

    Pacquiao steps into the ring at 148 lbs.

    The rehydrate at the same weight.

    How many ****ing times does this fact have to be repeated?

    , then realized and admitted he could not sustain it that's why he gave up that title and stay at 147.

    Whys is it so hard to understand he's not going back there anymore, unless if something lucrative and at 150 then he

    think about it. Now if Martinez could make 150 then that's another story.

    Saying he could make 154 is just

    Unless you're Mayweather, Manny has ALL of the pull. If someone wants to fight Pacquioa, they - not he - have to make concessions.

    You can cry about how unfair that is, but boxing has ALWAYS worked this way and Manny has earned that position.

    So, aside from the lineal title he won, he hasn't won any lineal titles...? :patsch:patsch:patsch:patsch In that case, Pacquiao is also undefeated. Aside from his losses and draws, he's won every fight.

    because they don't ****ing have to, he is the champ and the draw if you want that fight you come to his weight. simple as that.
