not like he's gonna do any more damage to his reputation. and what are they gonna say, he's a cheater? he'd be weighing in within the junior middleweight limit. also, he'd really increase his chances of winning, since pac's just not a junior middleweight (his walking weight is around 154 even when he's not training).
i don't think the pacquiao camp would back out either after the weigh in, pac's just not the type. they took this fight in part because they believe they can knock margo out. 3lbs won't change the fact that pac's faster, smarter and maybe even punches harder.
what do you guys think?

wtf are you talking about?
he's gonna come in 160-165 fight night.
If Manny can insert a $10m per pound over clause into a Mayweather fight, he can do something similar for a contest that he stipulated a catchweight in.
disagree with you on 2/3. i don't think pac's on roids. i do think this fight will be easy. i don't think margo is indifferent, it's his face getting mashed in the ring. he's gonna do everything he can to win, and he's gonna have his ass handed to him.
and if you dont think manny is on peds you should at least agree that he's cheating history with this catchweight shit. of course it will look good on paper 8 division champ but we all know what kind of record this is.. he is not fighting the best at ww and its not even a real welterweight... still a cheater to me

i dont think margarito believes he can win, he will try no doubt but he just accepted all demands from pacquie and will go there to get his payday but not really hoping to win. again its a perfect matchup for pacquie and what is more at a catchweight for a title ! this fight is just ****ed up
i hate the catchweights too, but pac and floyd are the two biggest stars in the sport. we can't really ignore their fights, whether we like it or not.
i think a third of the threads on this site are about pac or floyd. it's just useless to even try ignoring them
Catch weights piss me off too but Manny is al,ways value for money, only reason im streaming this shit instead of watching in style is i dont think Marg deserves it after what he has done, its my own pathetic little protest! At the same time i wanna see him take the beating Manny will defo give him!
99,9% sure.. margarito is no threat to pacquiao.. pacquie will come in roided to the max and get an easy win.. margo can do nothing to change that and i dont think he really cares bout this fight just a payday

his punches are definitely crisper. but harder? margo beat cotto up pretty bad too, and we're not 100% sure he had plaster in his gloves when he did it. he also beat clottey about the same as pac. the reason pac gets so many KDs is that the opponent often doesn't see the punches coming; hatton, diaz, barrera, morales, cotto, all these guys were put down by punches they didn't see.
aside from those punches, i'm guessing pac and margo have about the same power.
I hear u man, but to me the better puncher is the guy who's shots are more likely to take a guy out and however u slice it thats Pac.
And im of te belief Marg Did have loaded gloves against Migs.

I hope people ignore this fight,by buying it we are just setting ourselves up for more shitty catchweight fights.
