    So says the WBC during the mandatory pre-pre-fight weigh-in.

    JMM is in the shape of his life. The reports are that he is sparring southpaws like Freddie Norwood, the last man to beat him before John. However, the only thing FN has in common with MP is the southpaw stance. The question is if "Lil Hagler" can imitate Manny's style.

    On the other hand, as for Pacquiao saying, "I was wearing clothes at the scale," that sounds like an excuse. Looks like this will be his last fight at super feather. He needs to get in some quality high-intensity sparring soon or he will come in weight-drained like the second Barrera fight.

    That said, Pacquiao by UD.

    My prediction is best fight of the year. I agree Pac by UD but Marquez has a very good chance at getting at upset. I would be surprised if either fighter knocked each other out but we are guaranteed a rematch!

    No, Divac. I don't do that like you do for every single Mexican fighter.

    If Pacquiao loses by wide decision, then Marquez would deserve it.

    But I don't see that happening.

    When have I laid out pre-excuses for Mexican fighters?

    You must have me mixed up with someone else!

    Excuses in general.

    You scored JCC-Whitaker a draw. Enough said.

    ...or wait, did you have Chavez winning that?

    We're talking about excuses, not the scoring of fights.

    .....I dont know where you get the idea I score for the Mexican.....I had Mayweather beating Castillo, where more people than not had Castillo winning that fight.

    Race does'nt enter in my decision in scoring rounds!

    It's not that I disagree with what your saying, but I remember the 26 odd pages you and Silvermags added to that thread.

    Let them have there fun, there will be nothing for them come the 15th.

    You didn't answer my question. For the record, how did you score Whitaker-Chavez?

    I've already established that at the moment this fight was announced.
    .....the excuse from the JMM side in an event of a loss will be that he's nearing 35.....I will not harp on that, and you have my word on it.

    .......listen, barring a very bad decision, the best fighter will win this fight!

    ......but I'm like yourself, I dont want to hear from anybody excuses that range from age to weight, and what have you!
