Done being a Pacfan.

You don't get it. Pac is asking for the catchweight because he's scared. Scared that Marg may be too big or too strong for him at 154. Why else would there be a catchweight? Of course he's scared. But Margarito mainly fights at WW, Pac doesn't fight at LMW, so I don't have a problem with it. The problem is the issue with the belt, and I was not aware it was for a WBC 154lb belt. That's the WBC's fault. They should not sanction this. It's bullshit and I hate it. It's not Pacquiao's fault the WBC are a bunch of crooks. If he wants to fight Margarito at 150lb and the WBC are crooked enough to sanction it as a Championship fight that is the WBC's fault.

The majority of "fans" already buys into this shit, and they have all the fact provided to them 24/7. How do you think Boxing-fans 50-100 years from now will remember it? 99% will be too lazy to even lookup the facts and only go by the numbers "OMG 8 DIVISION CHAMP!!"... This is why i don't like the tactics that are being used. In a way, it's cheating history. Especially towards lesser educated fans. I'm not sure, man, look how critical fans are today of older fighters, and we are living in the global information age now. Facts are just a click away. That sort of trickery won't fool people looking back. I don't believe so anyway.

Ok I just checked up Boxrec and see it's for the WBC 154lb title... that news kind of escaped me. You don't get it. Pac is asking for the catchweight because he's scared. Scared that Marg may be too big or too strong for him at 154. Why else would there be a catchweight?

His ATG great status is already etched in the history books. It doesn't matter who he fights next. He would have fought Mayweather but he wants nothing do to with Pacquiao. Everyone is overreacting to the 150lb "catchweight". They could have easily fought at 147. Pac just wants the belt for his 8th division championship.

Everyone should have Sexy Sergio as their new hero. hes mine.

I'm shocked to see this. Punchingbag is a long time Pac fan and has always defended everything he does. Props to you.

They can market bullshit all they want. Boxing fans are in charge of the history. We know the real story. I don't care about belts anymore, but unfortunately, every big fight has to be for a belt. Whether they fight for a WBC Silver belt or for Pac's WBO belt they are both pieces of junk. If people want to say John Wayne won 10 Silver Belts in 8 divisions, it's a new record, go ahead...I'll know it's bullshit. That's enough for me. The issue for me is 150 not being a 'genuine' boxing weight. I'd rather they do it at 147, sure, but if neither will go to the other's preferred weight 150 is acceptable to make a fight since Margarito has fought at 147lbs 90% of his last 10 fights...150 is hardly limiting.

That is bullshit then. But the issue is why would the WBC sanction a 154 pound title fight at 150 pounds. That is a non-championship. I'm still fine with the fight at 150lb. **** all these belts.

Because a belt is on the line. Ok I just checked up Boxrec and see it's for the WBC 154lb title... that news kind of escaped me.

my pac-fandom is on life support. if it turns out that the catchweight is just a negotiation ploy, or if the catchweight gets dropped for any other reason, i think my fandom will pull through and be back on his feet eventually. if pac goes through with the catchweight, i'm pulling the plug. i will be monitoring the patient very closely.

do cungle and vegan 101 know there more to boxing than floyd and manny..they act like its an election that you have to pick one of them.

The problem is, even tho you might not care, it is being used to justify Pacquiao as an ATG in the same league as Henry Armstrong. It is being shamelessly used for marketing and legacy building.

Too funny, first the deniles about Mayweather avoiding everyone then people are pretending they were Manny fans and aren't now because a compromising weight is asked for. The same ones that are moaning are also the exact ones that defended Mayweather for making Marquez move up and not making weight to fight a featherweight-lightweight. as I said 2 funny!

floyd and manny were my top two in tht order. im done defending either one. ill watch their fights and ill enjoy them. thats about it. neither of them care about their fans and they let themselves be controlled by a buncha money grubbing idiots. they are singlhandedly making boxing the laughinstock of the whole nation and us as fans continue to stick up for them. enuff is enuff. why do any of us even defend these guys nymore. im a fan of boxing, no fighter is bigger than the sport.

Margarito fought 9 of his last 10 fights at Welterweight. What's the big deal? Because a belt is on the line.

Calzaghe have that belt for decade and that belt was bigger then Lacy s IBF belt,or Kessler s WBC,WBA belt! And how did Calzaghe conquer his?

It's the least credible of the big four, but thats not what im talking about. It was a belt that Cotto won vacantly from Michael ****ing Jennings. That's like having a titlefight vs Bobby Pacquiao.

He is undercover Flomo all the way,trust me! They are making thread like this since dinosaurs age! Cungle what does Pacquiao camp have to do for you to criticize Pac serious question man what needs to happen for you to say wow thats not cool

I don't care if it's for the belt on my trousers, 150 is a viable weight. The problem is, even tho you might not care, it is being used to justify Pacquiao as an ATG in the same league as Henry Armstrong. It is being shamelessly used for marketing and legacy building.
