Floyd came in at 146 against Marquez instead of the agreed upon 144. Still within the 147lb welterweight limit. He pretty much just said **** it Im cool at this weight, and paid the fine. Mayweather isnt a very physical fighter who uses his weight as a means to win anyways, so 146-144 with him is no big deal. Team Pacquiao only included that stupid stipulation for three reasons. 1. To avoid what happened to Marquez, which is stupid because Mayweather vs. Pacquiao would not be a catchweight fight. Its not like he would show up at the weigh-in over 147. 2. Because they could, and wanted to show Floyd that theyre calling shots and not being pushed around in negotiations and not having that ****. And 3. BECAUSE THEY THOUGHT HE WOULD NOT AGREE TO IT!
No & No. A Margarito win crushes the prospect of a Floyd-Pac fight, it will lose 90% of its value worldwide. 2012 is about 3 yrs too late & late 2011 is unacceptable as well, they`ve dragged this bull**** on long enough... it will get to the point that everyone will hate both these pricks by the time they get in the ring, Im just about there right now.
What you mean he they thought he wouldnt accept it. manny said he would give them blood right after the fight.
Man if pac wins against margarito which is likely the fight will remain in value. even in the year 2011 the only fight that could make more money than a manny vs floyd fight. the only fight that would make more money than that would be if the klitschko brothers fight each other which for danm sure wont happen.
