    Facts

    - Chad ASKED To come down to 168
    - 143 is not a weight class
    - Pacquiao fought at 147 vs DLH
    - Cotto wanted 147
    - Pacquiao has made a habit of manipulating fighters weight to gain an advantage (ODLH, COTTO 1, tried to in cotto 2, he bought JMM up in weight....)

    Definitely worse having to cut to make 175 then for one fight breaking the norm and having to cut an extra 7 pounds its so much worse it takes away from the win

    Pac was a ***** but ward a bigger *****.

    Cotto had to come in two pounds lighter than his previous fight. Dawson had to come in eight pounds lighter than his previous. That's the end of the discussion.

    Chad asked him for a catchweight at 170 Ward wouldnt take it demanded 168 meaning Chad who already has to come down to make 175 had to lose an additional 7 pounds, plus we have the WBC rule in which he is not allowed to add more than 15 pounds over night.

    This is much worse than Cotto vs Pacquiao... Yes Pac did request a catch weight in recent negotiations but Pac is the draw he is the star he can do that as did ward.
    The difference here is Pac when he did fight cotto it was at welter weight and Cotto only had to cut 2 pounds, while Chad had to cut 7 Big Big Big ****ing difference here this is no different than DLH vs Pac I mean after all Oscar asked for the fight at 147

    Regardless coming down 2 pounds is easier than coming down 7 pounds though.

    Chad said he would come down to 168 but preferred the fight to be at 175 or a catchweight

    Dawson as an Amateur fought as a light heavyweight

    Whats your point :huh

    Both signed the contract and lost more because of technical reasons than physical ones.
