    Source? Link? Proof? Oscar never said he had to sign any contract stipulating he couldn't come in over a certain weight....Nacho didn't validate the rumor and I haven't seen any documents supporting this story.

    Matter of fact.......the reason for the 24 hr weigh in for the sport is for the protection of the fighters who have to cut weight.

    There are serious risks involved with limiting weight for a person who has to rehydrate after 8-12 weeks of cutting weight.

    There's NO commission in the world that would approve of any such "rehydration clause" because of the risk to the fighters and the potential liability they could face if they allowed it to happen.

    Where you been?

    http://philippinesfunwall.wordpress.com/tag/pacquiao-de-la-hoya-tickets/

    Philippine boxing champ Manny Pacquiao and Golden Boy Oscar De La Hoya have already signed a contract to fight on December 6, 2008 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. However, there is still a possibility that the fight might not happen.

    It is stipulated in their contract that Oscar De La Hoya will pay Manny Pacquiao $3 Million per pound that goes over the 147 welterweight limit. And if Oscar De La Hoya doesn’t make the weight and reaches 150 lbs. during the weigh-in, then Pacquiao’s trainer Freddie Roach will just have to pull the plug on the fight, and that’s that.

    Im sure he doesn't add on that much weight on fight night but I've always wondered why he and DLH never get weighed on fight night.

    :lol: C'mon bro.....Tell me you're kidding. We are talking about the same ****, right?:huh A "re-hydration clause"....which doesn't exist in pro boxing. What you pulled was confirmation that the fight between PAC & DLH was a welter weight fight.

    Read carefully.......the contract stipulated that the PAC camp would give DLH an option to weigh in as high as 150 as long as he would agree to pay $3 Million per each pound over the welter weight limit. I worry about you turb.:-(

    Except when pacquiao fights he needs to make up his own ridiculous weight penalties.
