Is that when Pac beats him, most likely with ease. We´ll get all the general public and less informed journos telling us how Pacquiao is amazing, the best ever, 8 division champion. They won't mention the fact that he fought at a catchweight and it wasn't against the best of the division, i.e. Sergio Martinez, Paul Williams etc.
But that's ok, we'll just listen to the less knowledgable people and have to put up with it.
what's more shameful is that we wouldn't have to see this fight if floyd had grown a pair :(
you are just plain dumb
he could have fought others like Bradley or Berto or Martinez (who still hasnt signed to fight Pwill) but he and arum agreed that its either Margs or Cotto
hhmmmmm
I wonder why
quit trying to bash floyd
manny is just as guilty for fighting these Bul shit fights
Bro absolutely agree wit u!! There is someone out there who knows what is gng on in boxing....
If he is fightin margacheato at 150 then y did he not fight cotto at 147 ?? any ideas ??
it is all bulshit and im phukn tired of it. 8 division champ my coc, dis is a disgrace and the commission shld not allow dis type ofshit.
Its always harder to lose weight than gain it and it has negative effect on a fighter. What other reason would Pacquiao have to make fighters drop weight? Some just don't understand this.
how bout tyson comes back drops weight to 160 and pac meets him there for the heavyweight belt that mike doesnt have?! 10 division champ pac...please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! dis is ridic!

Ristrict his weight he is a career 147 pounder dummy how is giving him 3 extra pounds on top of his natural fighting weight restricting?
Margarito is gonna way over 165 pounds come fight night anyway, you do know that they don't weigh the fighters in on the same days as the fight anymore don't you?
You're right, Marg is a career welter. Since this is the case, why should a career welter and a guy who has never fought over 147 be able to fight for a vacant 154 belt? The only problem I have with this fight is the title.

Yeah you just have to get over though man... I have. Some people are going to feel that way but you still have your opinion... just gotta let it go.

Because he could weigh more on fight night if he weighed in at 154 instead of 150, so 150 is restricting him dummy.

Weight isn't gonna help Margarito either.
If he comes into the ring at 165 lbs he is going to be a sitting duck for Pac.
I don't think Margarito will have any problem with this, in fact I think 150 is probably the best weight for him. He doesn't have to starve all the way down to 147 and he won't be as lethargic as if he weighed the full 154 for the first time in years.
As I said before Pac would have been able to get away with a catchweight of 147 lbs if he wanted to. Margarito has 0 leverage in this negotiation. When Pac says " jump" Tony says "How high Senor?"
:lol1: We all know why the catchweight is in place, it's to help restrict Margarito's weight to make the fight easier for Pacquiao.

Martinez was the WBC champion and recognized as either the best or number 2 in that division. That's why it matters. Do you really think Pacquiao (or Mayweather ) would fight someone like Martinez?
The WBC title is just another title. How conviient to your argument that you elevate it as anything more.
The Ring "championship" is the only thing that matters and Martinez holds that belt at middleweight.
Foreman won the title from Santos
Meh, that's why I don't remember him.
****in guy never fought for 18 months then showed up fat and out of shape.
Pac-Margarito is still more legit.
Really people??
What a bunch of ****in crybabies.
Cotto gets to fight Yuri Foreman's sorry ass for a vacant 154 lb title and people have a bigger problem with this? Both guys beat the sh*t out of Cotto so they are clearly more than qualified to fight for a 154 lb title.
Sugar Ray Leonard also won his last title, at LHW, at a catchweight of 167 lbs over Donny Lalonde. I don't see people nowadays taking anything away from Leonard, I don't see an asterisk next to his accomplishments...
If Ray Leonard can force a 175lb'er to go 8 lbs below the limit then it's really not a big deal for Pac to force Margarito down 4 lbs when he can make the weight easily anyhow.

catchweight I have no problem with...only casual fans don't want it since they do not understand why it is in place.
