    140 is his best weight. At 145 he had a hard time with Cotto.

    You know his optimal fighting weight but you can't dare say it because that is not good for the image of Floyd. :lol:

    Can you enumerate all his weight drained opponents?

    Do you think Floyd will dare go up in weight and ask for a catchweight of 158lbs against Pavlik? Of course that is after Floyd dared to fight Martinez at Jr MW limit.

    that's why i really like the catchweight of 145 for this fight so that floyd would get more credit if he wins. we all know that pac's optimum fighting weight right now is 140. he was forced-fed and given an insane amount of protein already and he was barely 144 in his fight with cotto. too bad, alot of people seems to have a phobia of the word catchweight. catchweight is not that bad when we are trying to get a fair fight weight for a two different sized fighters.

    The difference is pac would happily continue fighting at catchweights, :rofl:rofl

    I bet if he was to fight any other WW he would demand a catch weight. I bet if he was to fight Yuri for Yuri title at 154 he would demand a catchweight.

    TELL ME THAT IM WRONG? I DARE YOU!!!!

    That's the difference, but pac knows that catchweight bull**** stops when it comes to floyd, he can do that **** with cotto and mosley but you aint draining mayweather:hi:

    Hold up lets cut the bull**** right now. There are a number of big fights that Pac could fight at 140 right now. But he isn't he choosing to continue fighting at a higher weight to get more MONEY the greedy ****.:rofl

    At 140 we have Bradley, Maidana, Khan, Alexander who a lot of people are sleeping on. Then there's IBF champ Urango and we also got Pac's nightmare Marquez who will be campaigning at that weight.

    All of these are exciting fights. But pac going where the money is.

    Who said Pac ducking? I never heard that did you? :patsch

    What i am saying is that there big fights at 140 still for him, so no i doubt feel sorry for him the way you fans go on about him fighting at 147. If he dont want to do it, then fight at 140. But no he aint because there more money to make at 147. Therefore his judgment is based on money just as it is opponents.:good

    Okay Troll, let's cut the BS. When Floyd came back from his retirement how come he picked JMM, who was a 135pounder? Why not fight Bradley, Maidana, Alexander or Urango? If he is going to pick a smaller man, why not pick someone at least closer to his weight class? How about this, why not fight Pacquiao himself or Berto or Mosley or Cotto? Wipe Floyd's wad off your mouth, you ***!

    Floyd is good, but you, homeboy, have a pea size brain. Like I told you before this converasation is for grown ups only. Now go take a hike.
