Of course because EVERYBODY loves to love Pacquiao, this is going to be shrugged off by a lot of people. If this was Mayweather asking Clottey for a catchweight the message board would explode. :deal
J.S: If that did come about, though, and they asked you to fight at, say, 145-pounds, would you do it? J.C: That's never been talked about. Bob Arum got him to agree to fight at 147, and I want to thank Bob Arum for that. If I had to [come in at 145] I don't think I could really do it. I wouldn't want to drain myself. Boxing is dangerous and I wouldn't want to fight while weakened.
http://www.mb.com.ph/articles/239294/clottey-not-going-a-quick-ko Clottey, looking robust and upbeat, said he currently weighs 162 lbs and that making the 147-lb limit wont be a problem. stop making shyyyt up... this fight is at 147 :hi:
And what? fight at the Tick Tock Inn for $5K per fight for the rest of his career. Arum has Clottey over a barrel when it comes to this and he knows it.
This is b.s. How can he defend a belt at a catchweight? I can see Sillyman bringing in his prized Diamond belt.:rofl
AM I wrong, or is this creating more fuzz than Pac's refusal to blood testing? Don't get me wrong, I do think is time 4 Roidiao to defend @ 147 but 2 lbs is nothing compared to no steroid testing with blood!! Either way, hope history remembers him as what he just demonstrated he is, A CHEATER with no respect for his fans & his country.......
Shut the **** up please. the fight's been signed and they are going on a press tour and the contract says 147. please kill yourself now
I'd wait til confirmation of it to lose my mind. If it's confirmed that they'll have the fight at 145 THEN you can begin to freak out. If it is at 145, It's a waste of time.
