    Manny was 146 in ring against Marquez at Super Feather. He was 147 in ring versus Morales in their 3rd fight.

    He's always boxed in ring at that sort of weight.

    :lol:

    Can't have it both ways.

    you all say pac at FW is at natural 147 pounder WW but his weighs in for FW so at 130 at "weigh in". then he balloons in weight at "fight night".. while as for now he will stay at around that weight (147-149) at "weigh in" and at "fight night".. while for his opponents would gain 6-10 lbs.. which natural WW wil normally do.. gain weight after weigh in

    Margo should've backed out of this fight. That would've taught Pac a lesson.

    Margo still has to eat though. If he refused Arum wouldn't have gotten him back licensed and he wouldn't be making millions. The almighty dollar :yep

    So then if ill use your logic.. being Margo would weigh at fight night around 160 he is a natural middleweight?

    Margo should've fought again in Mexico for that championship belt at 154. That would have been the honorable thing.

    Doesn't matter if this fight goes at 154 or 149, the result will be the same: Margarito gets knocked out within 3 rounds., take it to the bank for a easy payout.

    Yup.

    Margo would of taken this fight even if the Bobfather were to ask him to take a dive. Where else would he of been able to make the money he will get from fighting Pac? What other way would Margo of gotten licensed?

    you have some validity in your point but who was seeking who? Floyd wasnt seeking Marquez...marquez sought Floyd...no way was Floyd comming down all he did was give Marquez a chance...he didnt tell him fukk off 147 or nothing even though in the end i think mayweather pulled a ***** move by not making the catch weight....still its not the same....you have Pac going after fighters i applaud but then knowing these fighters arent going to urn down big paydays he strong arms bullshyt catchwieghts....that to me...i dont even think he needs!

    (When i say Pac im referring to his team......i kno or hope its not Pac asking for these wieghts....even though i think its HIS CAREER and he should have final say....obviously he is just the fighter and others control his career)

    why didnt they just do it at 147? andwer because pacman wants another weightclass.

    that the only thing that annoys me about catchweights, when they get sanctioned for a weight limit fight
