he should. I've never said he shouldn't. Floyd has stated he's walked around at 147 way before. Why would he lie about his weight now? What does he gain? He hasn't pointed it out to gain media attention, he doesn't try to use it as a leverage. Why would he lie about it? atsch
Yup. Another freddy-wak. You and enzo must suck his **** too huh? If it doesn't help my argument it doesn't exist !
143 or 145. What does Pac lose or gain if he's going to weigh 148 come fight time? Cutting weight is UNHEALTHY for the body. Cutting less = better. Fighters do add weight when moving up, but Pac and Floyd are both different. Floyd stopped adding weight when he hit 140/147 (added only 3-4lbs when he moved to 147. While Pac added 4lbs from 135 to 147.
Actually, **** it, dont even respond, you aren't going to answer anyway.l Im off to bed. Wasted time arguing with tools who won't believe anything that negates their argument. (Not talking about Apathetic)
Yup. Even though he's never lied about his weight ever? Way to go enzo. you must be the other mexican in the tub with freddy.
- cotto said he is OK @ 145 (1 ****'n pound) - mosely said he wants to fight pac for his belt @ 140 it's their word against yours... :hi:
Good night eze... Have a nice sleep buddy... Stop thinking about 140 and catchweights coz you might have nigthmares... .
It means preparing differently, in a way that he may be uncomfortable with. Cutting too much weight is bad, but Pac is comfortable with his training regimen the way it is - that's the difference. There's exactly the right amount of cardio and other weight-reducing activities. He doesn't have to sweat off the pounds in an unhealthy manner to make 143, and it's easy for him to get there. With that, 145 would be too easy, and would leave him at a disadvantage - which would be the way he would look at it. And seeing as you've just conceded that fighters do add weight while moving up, you've just conceded my point about fight-night weights being irrelevant. The fact that Floyd has stopped putting weight on altogether partially means that his body can't take any more moves up in weight, and it's partially to do with the fact he specifically trains to make sure he doesn't put on weight. You automatically expect the same from other fighters because Floyd does it, which is wrong. Personally, I'd rather Pac took any fight at 147 or 140, as I'm vehemently anti-catchweight.
and what pac gain at 147? nothing. so he is still a 100% junior welter who will fight a 100% welter. that is still not fair.
So far poll results showed people here wants PAC and Mosley to fight at 143 or 147... It's a toss up... Vote in the poll guys... .
Okay? That still doesn't make it fair because they said it. You complain about Marquez-Mayweather being at 143 but wasn't it Marquez who wanted the weight? Idiot. Answer my question? By fighting at anything less than 147, how does that even the playing field?
atsch I have yet to disagree with the weight. I've asked a question that's yet to be answer by you or enzo. By fighting at anything less than 147, how does that even the playing field?
So? Don't fight them if it's not fair. He was adding 15lbs but when someone can add 12lbs and he's only going to add 1-2lbs it's not fair? By fighting at catchweights, let's say 145 for example. Cotto nor Mosley is not going to magically not rehydrate to the same weight they always do. Let's say Mosley who weighed 160 vs Margo. Is down to 160 and starts cutting water weight, instead of 147, he goes to 145. When he re hydrates. He's not going to magically only weigh 157, he's going back to 160. The only thing Pac gains at 145 is the chance that these fighters drain too much weight and hurt themselves. And then the lower weight the better the chance.
