    That's not for either of us to decide. They came with different circumstances.

    Technicallty sure. But to me, just a fight. I'm not gonna make a fuss over that belt since I doubt it'll be a key to his legacy.

    Pac should have the belt now since he wasnt in the JMW limit

    JMW = 148 - 154lbs.:deal

    As long as Pac comes within the 148-154 limit he should get Mosleys belt.

    I could care less about the belt, in this instance, because, it's paper. It's the principle of the matter, that is raising eyebrows, yet again.

    Principles in boxing? :think Hmmm...

    And what principle is taking a beating here? Boxing has done nothing but shoot itself in the foot for ages now. I've given up on boxing doing the right thing, because those involved in boxing don't give a **** either. Not the promoters, not the ABC's, not the established fighters, not the networks.

    This fight does ntohing to hurt the integrity of boxing because boxing lost all it's integrity a long time ago.

    BTW, no where, and I mean NO WHERE, has it ever stated a title fight MUST be at the upper limit to be legit. IF that was some rule, why are weight classes proven into divisions that span 2 to 5 to 7 to 9 to 15 pounds?

    I don't think anyone takes Pacquiao's paper titles at catchweights serious anymore anyway so I wouldn't worry about it.

    Hey screw weight classes. We don't need those anymore. Let them just fight at whatever weight they want

    Those taking it serious were some of the first to condemn those same titles.

    If you don't care about the belt then there is no principle.

    Unless it's the principle that if something suits your agenda, you will argue it.

    "possible" to defend. What does the "possible" mean exactly?

    People are all over his nuts about "possible", pathetic, me? I like to wait until FACT before criticising.

    I'm speaking on this title fight in this specific instance. If the title meant nothing, why would Pac be willing to pay sanctioning fee's for the title?
