    It should happen at 147. Why not? Pac fought Oscar there why not PBF?

    It would be great if it would happen at 140 where PacMan would have good chance of beating Floyd. My guess is that it will happen at 144!

    I voted 147 but sounds like Roach won't let Pacman get into the ring if that were the case. It's a shame and as good as Floyd is he will only come in 100% weighing in at WW. I think 140 does too much damage to his body but he should still win at a catchweight. Seriously what more can Roach ask for? They got DLH to come in at 147 let Floyd do the same. He's smaller anyway they need to take that risk full on.

    If you ask me the most fair weight for both fighters would 142!

    Fight should happen at whatever weight Manny wants, afterall, if media reports are true then it's FMJ challenging him.

    The man was fighting at 130 a year ago...come on. They knew Oscar was shot. Floyd is not the same. A catch weight is te least FLoyd should do.

    Are you scared for PBF?

    for pac to have a bigger chance against Mayweather the best weight is 140.

    B/c he never planned to go all the way up to 147....if they had their choice the DLH fight would have been at 140 but DLH wouldn't have made that.

    Floyd is a natrual 140 fighter...PAC isn't but at least its closer to his natrual fighting wieght....it's all about giving the two figthters a level playing field to compete.

    Floyd is probably better at 140lbs anyway.

    Id honestly think Pac should allow Floyd to come in at 147 or whatever. He aint KOing Floyd cold, if he does stop him it will be on accumulation. That would mean he would need to be much faster. Allow Floyd to pack on as much weight as he wants, and he should come in a little lighter and faster.

    Either way he's gonna get Knocked Out. See what Marquez did to him.....Marquez is no Floyd Mayweather.
