    Why was it that the fighters on the undercard weighed in right at the limit of theri respective weights???

    Had it been rigged, they would have been over the limit..ALL of them.:patsch

    That's why its just a tin foil conspiracy. Albeit one that sounds plausible, even fantastical as that may be.

    I heard that there was a deal that DLH had to pay a million dollars for every pound over 147 he weighed on the night. Doubt if its true though.

    i have a conspiracy theory! remember when pac weighed on the scales and he weighed 142 when in the locker room he weighed 144. The team though goldenboy tampered with the weights. Delahoya may have weighed over the weight by 2 pounds because he came in exactly 147.Remember their was a penalty for going over so oscar may have come in lower to distract attention but it back fired and pac knocked him out.

    only my theory!

    Because many people thought this was a mismatch and he was trying to prove he could beat pacquiao by only weighing in @ 147 lbs. If he would have rehydrated to let say 160 lbs then he would have been too big for pacquiao.

    If it was rigged every single fighter on the undercard would have failed to make the weight limit.

    Some people here have a hard time with common sense. :patsch

    Roach said he saw the needle marks in his arms @ the track a day or 2 before the fight. So idk, but he definantly looked like ****.

    Thats what I thought too and they tried to hydrate him after the weight had been taken on fight night.

    If you have any problems understanding what he has written then you must be a very stupid individual

    The comma isn't necessary and is more of a personal preference.
