Pacquiao vs Marquez @ 144

I completely agree but this is a fight that shouldnt be made as pac has moved on and up in weight. If marquez wants the fight that bad then im afraid thats what he is going to have to overcome.

 

Doesn't make any difference. They both almost had the same fight night weights since ages ago. The only difference is they won't be draining themselves as they were at 135.
If the fighters themselves doesn't have a problem with it, I can't see why you guys are having a problem with it.

Marquez looked like **** against Floyd? Hell, That's Floyd. Only a few fighters didn't looked like **** when against Floyd.

 

Agreed

 

You are not only sick . . . you are also a moron.

Jmm doesn't have to weigh in at exactly 144 and he doesn't have to blow himself up to 147.

Welter limit is at 141 to 147 . . . IDIOT! :deal

 

Original offer to JMM was at 147 lbs. but Top Rank lowered it to 144 lbs. in the revised offer so that GBP will have a hard time matching their offer.

 

Wrong. Marquez does not have to do **** as he weighs in around 145 during his 135 fight night and Pac is around 147 fight.
The difference is JMM can't hang at 147 so he has made a living at 135 while Pac can hang vs 147 fighters.

But actual fight night weight has been relatively the same <147.

 

This fight is going to be a total mismatch. Pacquiao is going to blow away Marquez by round 3, "mark my words."

 

As much as I argue with you OnePunch (whether you've realized that or not).. I have to say you're spot on... People don't know JMM can come in between 135 to 144... and that Pac always comes in under 150.. heck even 147 normally.... its a fair fight to me as long as JMM uses his head

 

If it is a mismatch.. is honestly because of skills.. NOT cause of weight... because as much as Manny and his team kill us with catchweights.. this one actually seems fair to me.... So if it is a mismatch.. its because JMM can't hang with manny anymore...


Any this is the best match we can get at the time (Khan, Ortiz, and Bradley have not proven they deserve it til they fight each other)... AND it will be WAY MORE ENTERTAINING than the Mosley fight!!

 

As per fight records, Marquez and Pacquiao usually come out at more or less the
same weight. Pac can't even weight 145.

 

precisely, if jmm's team is happy with the 144 catch weight, why are some posters here complainining.

 

The weight will never be an issue. They are basically the same size. Pac just happened to have fought more because he chose to go up. He could've have stayed at 135-140 if he didnt really care about legacy. JMM chose to stay light, and the only bad performance he had at the upper weights was against PBF, whom he said seemed big when they fought. PBF also happened to be a level above JMM according to some "experts". Pac and JMM wont be draining themselves and would actually benefit at that weight. No draining, no bulking up needed.

 

Fact that JMM deserves his paycheck, and that there's no other way they could discredit this fight. Haters will always look for ways to hate. ESB is the best medium.
