    Isn't the answer to the question very easy?

    Pacquiao is the A-side on most of his fights. He dictates the terms of course.

    As with Oscar, well, it's Oscar who gave the go signal and agreed with everything.

    Thats the difference between oscar and floyd who is willing to give a little to get fights made, and pac who needs everything in his favour.

    I don't know. Was the mediator a ***?
     
  6. Mayweather agreex to a catch weight of 144...what happened there? Exactly! STFU!
     
  7. No, you for sure are though. I remember him saying Floyd walked away from negotiations...I'm taking about Greenburg here.
     
  8. Yeah, Floyd is awesome. He agrees to a catch weight and doesn't even try to make the weight :lol: Very honorable :patsch

    No Floyd wasn't there for negotiations. Why would he be? The terms were already set, and Pac still wanted a cutoff. No sense in wasting everyone's time when he and Mosley just had huge success testing with no cutoffs.

    He paid the price for not making weight and I've said I hated that he did that.
     
  10. Yet you still appreciate guys like him huh? At least Pac sticks to his catchweights. Pac has never sucker punched anyone either :deal

    You seriously don't consider PAC a "warrior" because he moved up 8 weight classes to fight men clearly a LOT bigger than himself because he requested "catch weights".:think Interesting...

    PAC has only 3 catch weight fights.....Cotto....Marg and JMM.

    You realize DLH has 2 catch weight fighst....Jones Jr has a few....Ray Leonard has a couple....Armstrong...the list goes on and on.

    You drive a hard bargain bro.

    no1 thinks any of those catchweight bouts r hardly legit though. but pac and his **** fans believe it's something special when he wins his paper belts at catchweights

    Who consists of this group you called "no1"? PAC got major props for beating up Cotto at 145 homie....it was a tremendous win....The way he dominated Margarito at 151 was also very well received by the majority.

    Controversy surrounded the 3rd fight with JMM but it was a close fight regardless of how you scored it. I had JMM winning.

    PAC and his "**** fans" give PAC credit for those wins....as do A LOT of other boxing fans, insiders, analysts and reporters.

    There are always haters who will look to discredit the person they are hating on.....it comes with the territory. But by and large.....PAC's accomplishments and feats are not considered "easy" or somehow "don't count".

    He's without questions going to the hall and an ATG when it's all said and done.

    i meant about jones catchweights with trinidad and oscars with forbes and hopkins. put a damper on their legit'ness. whereas all the pac fans who know nothing think pacs catchweight wins are something special :blurp
