    Pacquiao @ 140

    If the top fighters or big names at 147 are Haymon fighters and he's holding his fighters hostage, Pacquiao needs to do what's best for his career. Fighting at 140 is not an issue with me IF HE CANNOT GET BIG NAMES AT 147. Pac and Co. have been name dropping yet end up fighting Algieri :huh. Now I have no issue with Pac @ 140 if he can comfortably make weight, my issue is the possibility of Crawford and Mikey Garcia. He's going to move to JR welterweight so he can fight lightweights and super featherfights? His fans claim: "they're bigger than him and will fill out fine at 140 and weigh more". Uhhh, that's great and all, but they are comfortably making 126 and 130, going up 10 lbs will most likely put them at a disadvantage. They'll be blown up lightweights because they haven't naturally progressed up in weight. I'm against Pacquaio vs Crawford/Garcia @ 140 until I see all 3 of them get tune ups at that weight. And please, when making your argument, don't be hypocritical.

    Does Pacquiao moving to 140 to fight even smaller guys hurt his legacy?

    Broner's name dropping

    Do you guys take him seriously? To be honest, and I don't like Broner, I think he'll fight anybody. I think his loss to Maidana helped him a lot. He's an idiot but respect where respect is due. He's doing what other fighters get criticized for not doing: calling out and claiming to be willing to fight anyone. And people are still talking **** about him. I don't think it matters who Broner fights, who he wins or loses to, people will always hate him for his personality. People are so caught up in their emotions they won't recognize his talent and/or potential. And you got to take him serious when he calls these people out. Pac's camp has called out big names but end up fighting Algieri, I bet he's taken seriously.

    People say you have to be willing to fight anyone, does "fighting anyone" even matter if you're losing?

    Broner loses via wide UD

    Something like 120-104 after numerous knock-downs.

    Broner has heart of a warrior , he proved that in the chino fight .

    Unlike his big Bro , when AB says he wants to fight everyone . I believe him when he says it .

    Given the fact that he started out at flyweight , I don't think Manny dropping down to 140 is going to hurt his legacy . Its a bit of a risk... Especially with brutal punchers like Matthysse and Provodnikov (Former sparring partner) licking their lips waiting for him @ 140 .

    We all know Floyd is never going to fight him

    Manny and Roach have long time ago acknowledged this which is why finally dropping back down . They know the fight will never happen .

    What else is really left @ 147 ??

    Broner is 24 (I think), he's not a bum, he just hit the limelight too quick. Of course he'll lose now stepping up because he's not ready. You're just a hater and it's too obvious. Broner ain't world class but he isn't a bum either. Become a fan of boxing, not a fan boy.
