Maybe forgetting some obvious ones but when was the last time a b side opponent won a catch weight fight? Cotto Geale PAC Algeri PAC de la Hoya May canelo Even going back to sugar ray vs Lalonde Maybe I'm just being thick but where and when did we get an upset.?
No it was a CW. Hopkins was an underdog to Pavlik and Winky in CW fights as well. Trinidad was the A side against Roy Jones in a CW fight. Pavlik was the b side against Taylor in their rematch.
Are you implying that Oscar WANTED to fight at a weight he could no longer make comfortably? in 8 oz gloves?
No, he's implying that Pacquiao was the B-side as in the smaller draw, which he most certainly was at the time.
i view A/B side as the side that dictates the terms. If oscar wanted to fight pac in 8oz gloves he must have been scared ****less of Money
