Maybe the ***** move is the welters looking for a fight with Manny in the first place. They want a giant paycheck, well they need to make some concessions.

It is the only fair way.

The only fair way?

No.


If he can't face the big dogs in their own backyards,

he should just stay out.

Pac needs to keep his ass at 140.

Well look at it from the other side of the fence. Right now, it's the big dogs who want him, so if they want to face the alpha dog and get a big payday, they'll have to concede meet him half way.

Or they can stay in their division and fight each other.

Leonard fought in two championship catch-weight fights.

The rematch with Hearns came at a catch-weight of 163, although it was for two 168 lb. titles.

That came a few months after Leonard fought Lalonde at 168. Lalonde was an 175 lb champ, but the weight was 168, so the WBC could allow two divisional titles to be at stake at once.

If Mosley and Pacquiao are gonna fight they should meet inbetween.

144 pounds is fair imo.

Why not fight the biggest and the best challenges? Why stop now?

1) roach said the dlh fight at 147 was a ONE time deal

2) pac officially weighed 138 lbs against hatton just a few weeks ago. when was the last time cotto/mosley/pbf officially weighed 138 lbs???

3) roach never intended for pac to campaign at WW

4) unless cotto/mosley/pbf agrees to 142, this fight shouldn't even be discussed. Get down to 142 lbs or GTFO and fight mosley

5) Cotto/mosley is a MW on fight night and Pac is a WW on fight night. IS THAT FAIR???

6) pac officially weighed 142 lbs against dlh. when was the last time cotto/mosley/pbf officially weighed 142 lbs???

Exactly man, when was the last time cotto/mosley/pbf weighed 138? Hell of a long time to be getting down to 142 again. It would seem like a move Oscar De La Hoya tried to pull with Pacquiao. Oh no! Please don't tell me Pac wants more weight drained, dehydrated fighters with names on his resume! HAHAHHAHAA

Floyd was a WW, DLH was a MW on fight night. Was that fair?

EXACTLY! so cotto and mosley should fight each other instead of picking on pac.

if pac fights cotto and mosley again, people would just say they are weight drained. so the fight shouldn't even happen.

I dunno why you are so obsessed with pac fighting mosley and cotto. give it up. even you are against the fight but keep complaining about it.

Floyd was a WW, DLH was a MW on fight night. Was that fair?

no but he signed the contract. if floyd didn't like it he could've walked away from the fight, just like if cotto and mosley don't want to fight pac they can walk away from the fight.

its easy.
