Is Pacs 150 lb demand reasonable?

Personally I think its a bitch move. . I'm right there. Pac has used up his "I'm the small guy" points. He uses that sh1t like some folks play the race card. As a fighter that is attempting to secure a top 10 ATG slot, he has to win fights that the average fan would find unfair. Beyond the pale. But if that mealymouthed mf ,Roach continues to secure unnecessary advantages, Pac will be viewed as a "could have been" in an ATG sense.

Well I guess we all know how people feel about Pac and his bitch move..A few pactards are hanging on for dear life.

Belts dont mean shit anymore, and havent done for a long time. I think its a good fight, and a catchweight is reasonable seeing as Marg has just moved up and Manny has never fought that heavy before. I think everyone is too caught up in the politics.

The title means nothing and he is fighting an opponent who is 5 inches taller then him and naturally much bigger. Also, it won't have an impact on the fight itself and Margo won't be drained. 4 time lineal champion is all that counts, and it counts for a lot. Well yeah he's moving up in weights. Comes with the territory.......

True warriors or boxers who just want to fight should not be put at a disadvantage simply because they want, and have the "no fear" attitide to fight. Pac is looking like a financial bully. He figures he has money and pull so he will make other fighters kneel to fight him.(sounds familiar Pactards?) The only difference is Floyd does not put the fighters at a disadvantage by making them take a test....If anything it makes them more even. The testing part, Pac was not link to any reports of taking illegal substances, like how Mosley was. It all came from the Mayweathers. Mayweather is a financial bully also. Don't you think it was a disadvantage of JMM going up 2 weights to fight Floyd, even though JMM called him out. Even at 144 catchweight limit, Mayweather had the advantage but by not making it, that puts more of a bigger advantage for PBF. As far as true warriors, this is professional boxing, not amatuer. Boxers can say they fight for pride and country, but when it comes down to it, they fight because of money.

LMFAO at the third option in the poll. I'm somewhere in between. I'm not happy about the 150, but whatever...

Well the opponent is agreeing to it. Cotto could have said no to the catchweight but he did. Marg can say no too. Marg can even agree on the catchweight then break it, just like Mayweather against JMM.

It doesnt make sense just let Tony come in SUPER SLOW at 154 and pick him apart!!

If you think a small man asking for a catchweight against a bigger man is a BITCH , you're flat out stupid. 148-154 is the Junior Middleweight Class. 150 is still Junior Middleweight. Margarito won't have any problem making weight. You wanna what a bitch is? Is when Welterweight makes an old lightweight fight a catchweight of 145 ,then cheats him by coming in at 147. That is a BITCH. His name is Floyd Mayweather Jr. Please use your brain. The problem is not the catchweight itself, it is that there is a title on the line for a non-standard weight limit.

QUICK QUESTION; Can you fight for a vacant title at a catchweight?

Last time I checked 150 lies in the jr mw division. Haters gonna hate! But seriously, I'm a pactard but I don't think it should be for a belt. But at least he's thinking about boxing though. Good for you pac, stay active and treat your fans to another fight. unlike the pussy who went straight to vacation.

I agree with other members in here is that the most sensible/reasonable thing is the fight should be at 147. But the one pushing this thing in my opinion is Arum, Konz, and other Pac's advisers. With Arum, he wants to be known to have a boxer to win 8 titles, legacy for him, more bling bling for him.

pacman is going to get what is coming to him eventually:nonono:

Has Pac ever weighed over 150 on fight night? 149 is reported on his last fight, so that is Pac's heaviest fight night weight. Oh wait, you have to ask Jinkee about his fight night against her.

the most sensible thing i've read is to have the fight at 147 for manny's belt. looking at it with the integrity of the sport in mind this paper belt business is awful. the only reason its happening is cuz the wbc wants the sanctioning fees for a big money fight and bob arum wants to use another "title" as a promotional tool. its meaningless otherwise. if marg had the belt and agreed to a catch weight fight...that would be a different story...but basically they are manufacturing a jmw title fight as close to ww as possible. its pathetic they think fans are that stupid. i hear it from ex-boxing fans all the time..."theres too many belts, you never know who the real champion is." i don't care who i'm a fan of...i'm not down with shit that makes people walk away from the sport.

Id say it would be a more competitive fight if the Pac/Cotto fight was made at 147, Cotto drained himself for that fight, but hey he agreed to it so its Cottos fault for his loss, + that kid trainer with no direction. Even at a limit of 147, maybe Cotto would won 1-2 more rounds then 8-12 would be the rounds 6-12 on the actual fight(hope you get what i mean).

And that makes anything less wrong? Margarito used plastered hands, so that is cool! Oscar is a bitch for not fighting Hopkins at 160. Are you saying Manny is a bitch? If you think a small man asking for a catchweight against a bigger man is a BITCH , you're flat out stupid. 148-154 is the Junior Middleweight Class. 150 is still Junior Middleweight.
