    after agreeing for the fight to take place at 151, did they really try to go back on their word and make it at 149 for the 154lb title ????

    there's an interview where margo says they tried to back outta 151, so he had to settle for 150 :huh

    Of course they would have tried it. If they could have got Cotto to 143 then they would have as well

    They should've just fought at 147.

    But honestly I doubt Margo would agree to that.

    its funny how Pac is the only one who gets shat on when his team tries to negotiate something in their favour. Alot of other fighters get a pass for the same type of **** but I guess that comes with the territory.

    When Freddie roach only rats out Oscar about illegal handwraps when he is about to fight pac and not before against any other opponents you have to ask and question his integrity and morals.

    especially the same way he has parkinsons doesnthe care if another fighter gets what he has when he could indirectly be the cause.
