If... and WHEN the Floyd-Shane fight gets made, I want you to remember...

whoah! that's a big "IF"...

 

lol, Pac's been fighting at welter a little over year, never having fought above 130 up until a year and a half ago.

The only catchweight he's asked for was against Cotto, a top 3 Welter. He most likely won't ask for another as he proved he could handle one of the strongest welters.

Floyd's been at 147 for 4 years and his last fight was a catchweight against a lightweight, which he didn't even bother to honor. This was against a guy Pac had fought less than 2 years ago.

Marquez consequently being overmatched proved Team Pac's concerns for having a catchweight against Cotto were legit. Mayweather's antics were just flat out embarrassing, not only to him but the sport.

 

damn right, headbrokenaiken makes it out like pac has only ever fought catchweight fights.
he also makes it out like the fight will definitely happen. if it does, great. but gayweather has the history of avoiding legit threats.

 

Roach made that comment when pac was fighting at 140 and just beat Hatton. What is it with you Floydtoys you dont understand? Pac was a LW who had success at WW and JWW and at the time was campaigning at JWW. Floyd had been campaigning at WW. You guys wanna jump up and down and celebrate that Floyd who was a WW and former JMW champ isnt asking another WW for a catchweight? WTF is this shitty commonsense. lol. ******s.

Again, why is it Pac would have never considered fighting Margo 2 years ago yet is considering it now, infact same can be said about Hatton, DLH, Cotto. When Floyd starts fighting Pavlik at MW then you guys can start talking.

 

You're making it sound like the catchweight was for Mayweather's benefit.

Also Pac wanted a catchweight against Clottey originally according to his lawyer.

 

Who did Pac fight before Hatton and at what weight?

 

Floyd vs. Shane is good for boxing and to me thats all that matters

 

Catchweights are for people who are more than happy to have the names added to their resume without having to fight their opponents at peak condition for that weight class.

 

roach has said Pac is fighting at WW now so after Mosley Knocks Mayweather out he can fight Pac at 147lb limit

 

Great thread. It's always great to dig up myth buster videos. Sometimes people tend to forget these things.

 

back then, Pac had just fought at 138lbs so he was still alot smaller than 143

after the Cotto fight, Pac would fight anyone at 147, even if he is smaller than everyone.

 

Since when did casual fans believe everything on what Roach said. True Boxing fans know that we won't accuse until the paper signed. Really guys, you should know better than this.

 

after dismantling mosley, fearless warrior floyd takes on marga, williams, pacqau and berto

is just a matter of time.
