Pacquiao weighing 144 for a 150 lbs fight is worse than floyd being 2 lbs over

    even at 154 Margarito would have to cut weight. Pac would have to fight Margo at MW or maybe even SMW for him to come in at 100%.

    99.9% of boxers cut weight and therefore fight at less than 100%

    Yea but each fighter is choosing the weight class they fight and that's the point..u should be able to fight within ur class.....catch weight fights are wack,no matter how u look at it.if u choose to move up that's ur choice deal with the consequences

    Margarito also chose to come down to fight Pacquiao. They both chose to fight each other. They were in different divisions. They met in the middle.

    WBC title aside, I see no problem.

    THERE IS NO MINIMUM WEIGHT

    you can weigh 1lb ( not that it matters as you could wear lead clothes- legally by the way !)


    the IBF or WBC crooks can make some rule but all they can do is remove their sanction- not stop the fight

    I guess Pac fighting wlad is terrible on his part :rofl

    This thread is just as bad as when a Floyd fan suggested for Pac to put in his JWW title against Cotto since they're not fighting at the WW limit.

    In other word you are not a fan of boxing but a fan of a boxer.

    From your OP, You were either a troll or a fool.


    At least you were honest enough to let us know which.

    Genuinely the most stupid comment i've ever read on here.

    Even worse than the "ray robinson wouldn't even be a top 50 ww today" courtesy of pugilisticpower.

    I think MW once said something about someone being 'floored.'
