    I have no problem admiting getting caught up in that Ryhydration Clause theory. I was curious to see if the fight night weight was going to be shown. Manny fought a hell of a fight. When he got caught in the ropes and was getting banged, he fought back didn't run or hold.

    And as far as the theories about Margo getting paid to take a dive. Naw, Margo fought like he wanted to win but just couldn't catch the quicker more skilled fighter. This was a very impressive win for Pac, very impressive!

    Yes....well, Floyd demanded one but he wouldn't have ever gotten it. There wouldn't be any governing body willing to sanction a bout with a rehydration clause that goes directly against regulated 24 hour weigh in protocol for all professional boxing matches. Floyd didn't really want to fight Winky in the first place. There are no rehydration clause in professional fighting.

    i know..

    rehydration clause theory is ridiculous. no boxer, especially named boxers, would agree to this as they know rehydration is a big part of the game

    boxers who have not created names yet may be desperate to agree to one. but there will be no need for it if they are unnamed.

    This is how it works:

    There is evidence that Floyd attempted to introduce a rehydration clause against at least one opponent in the past. The Mayweather's and Floyd's supporters know this makes him look bad, so they accuse Manny of restricting his opponents from rehydrating and loudly ridicule him for it. They call him a coward, and a cheater. Ironically, because Manny has never asked for such a clause, they are in fact just criticizing Floyd.:patsch
