    From the hype of the fight:

    "Despite trainer Freddie Roach and promoter Bob Arum declaring no need for a catchweight in Manny Pacquiao's upcoming March 13th welterweight title defense against Joshua Clottey, apparently there's been a change of plans. According to Pacquiao's lawyer, Jeng Gacal, the WBO champion will indeed request his challenger to meet him at a weight south of the 147-pound limit. "We will push for the 145 [lbs.] catchweight," he would tell ABS-CBN as he revealed the deal is virtually done except for the matter of the weight."

    =========================================================

    Does anyone else think there are too many chiefs in Manny's camp? Seriously, all he needs is Roach and a lawyer to read his contracts.

    Care? Why don't you just wait until the fight is signed then you can sling all the mud you want?

    I'm not a mudslinger, I consider myself a Pacquiao fan.

    However, how can a camp be this disorganized?

    I thought Arum said there was going to be no catchweight.

    I'd love for Clottey to say no.

    Seriously what the ****?

    I dunno, I just wouldn't be running around exclaiming why oh why on the word of a lawyer. It's obvious someone is making a mistake.

    It's just getting tiring with Pacquiao always requiring guys to drain themselves to fight him.

    Everyone would be better off if Manny fired Koncz and Gacal. I have no idea how these two leeches have stayed employed.
