    All the *****s calling for Pac to fight JMM at 140 are inadvertently
    admitting that JMM was too small at WW and Mayweather's victory
    was a farce. Loving the hypocrisy.....

    Also, who's win over Hatton was better? Manny's (140-Ricky was
    undefeated) or Floyd's (147-Ricky already exposed by Callazo)?

    if you want objectivity leave out baby**** labels, if you want handbags you're doing just fine.

    hatton being undefeated doesnt matter , he left warren because he wanted to test himself more often - and he made it happen from there.

    manny is a swarming and aggressive fighter and floyd breaks people down. different fighters.

    And Mayweather rehydrated to 155-160 or more.
    Pac's max weight will be around the welter limit.
    He and Marquez will weigh similar fight night to what they did in their last bout.
    The only difference is Pac won't have had to kill himself to make weight. Marquez thinks he has Pac's number, prove it by beating him at his best. Take a ****ing risk and quit bitching.
    JMM ain't in a position to make demands, if he so desperately wants the fight as he claims.

    The weight class doesn't make a difference that's just one of many roadblocks Arum has available. Marquez will agree to 147, then the problem will be the money split between the two etc.

    Martinez is too big for Pac etc. Blood testing weakens me etc.

    Fight won't happen until Marquez is shot and coming off a loss.

    Pacquiao wont fight marquez at 140, because hes the Manny Pacquiao with 8 world titles, one of the greats in boxing history. Where was he before the 2nd fight? Bigger name, the bigger the ego.

    Mayweathers win was far better than Pacmans. Arum/Roach took the fight with hatton because he can easily go down, and fights with hes chin forward.

    you know that line "all roads lead to floyd mayweather"? i think they live by that code. 140 between pac and jmm is fine. pac can easily make 140, and jmm wouldn't have to go up too much.

    That's because Mayweather had over 15lbs on Marquez fight night. His ****ing jabs were knocking him about. Marquez even said that and that he feels the fight could've been different otherwise. Pac will outweigh him by a only few lbs. Marquez just don't want to face Pac at his best.

    They should be fighting at 140-142, Anything above that bigger edge to Pacquiao.

    dela hoya deemed it was the fair weight, rather than ask pac to move from 135 to 154 instantly, he made concessions. better move than ask someone to move from 135 to 144 and **** him up to two more pounds on the day of the weigh in if you ask me. floyd, as talented as he is, needs every ounce of advantage he could get, on and off the ring. so why can't pac?

    like i said, this fight should be done at 140. that is the most reasonable weight.

    Mayweather was a welter moving up to 154. Not a big stretch.
    Pac went up from 2 divisions lower to fight Oscar at 147.
    Why don't you ask Oscar the promoter why he didn't make Manny jump 3 divisions to fight him at 154? hint..it would not have sold

    JMM went up from 135 to fight Mayweather at 146, who outweighed him by 15lbs+ fight night.
    He can fight competively against Pac at welter, who will only weigh on the welter limit fight night, like he did in their last fight.

    In an ideal world where fans get their way that's what would happen. It won't be happening here. Marquez will have to step up or shut up if he seriously wants this fight at any cost

    If Pac fought Cotto & Margarito, why can't Mayweather?
    Oh, that's right he ducked them both.... And don't mention
    Mosely as all you *****s are now saying that Shane is shot
    as soon as Arum starting mentioning him as an opponent
    for Pac. Also, how old was Shane when Floyd fought him?
