If his optimum weight is 135 why doesn't he come in at that weight? Pac came in at 144 for a JMW fight so it's not against the rules. At fight night he'll be withing 2-3 lbs of Manny anyways so he won't be at a disadvantage.
JMM should come at 140, I don't think there will be any penalty for it.
Plus, he has to come at least at 140 because Pacquiao has become a full blown WW, he needs the weight.
There is no minimum weight for a fight, JMM can come in at whatever weight he wants. This blows the entire "He was uncomfortable with the weight" excuse out of the water.

**** weight he needs speed.....
no they do not weigh the same
if so they would fight in the same weight class
You've never heard of weight cutting? JMM and Manny are the same size, JMM cuts weight to fight smaller opposition, Manny does not.
yes
he waited nephew
no matter how many smiley faces you put it, that's what it is
yeah, Pac waited for Floyd to comeback and fight a LW at WW
while he was planning a fight with Hatton at 140 too :laugh:
were you watching boxing in spring 09? :laugh:
JMM beat Diaz, then called out Floyd to spite Pac
NOBODY took that challenge serious
well, nobody except Floyd of course :laugh:
He's not, they weigh the same it's just that JMM cuts weight and Manny eats.
no they do not weigh the same
if so they would fight in the same weight class
he is nephew
don't be fooled
he waited until the little man got beat by mayweather at this weight then decided to face him there
"waited?" :laugh:
NOBODY ever foresaw JMM going to WW :laugh:
he's not
JMM has been calling for him, not vice versa
and JMM getting KO'd no matter what he comes in at
he is nephew
don't be fooled
he waited until the little man got beat by mayweather at this weight then decided to face him there
The 2nd fight was only 3 years ago and JMM has only lost to Floyd Mayweather in that time period. JMM has earned a chance to redeem himself for a fight many people thought he won.
No question Marquez deserves the fight, he deserved it three years ago. But, at this point in time, the fight has expired and JMM though a great technical boxer, is over the hill, slower, reflexes fading and past prime. If they had been fighting at the same weight class for the past few years, it would be a little more of an interesting fight.
Pacquiao carries weight better, and it'd be stupid to give an advantage to pac in lbs, when he's already the way faster guy.
If JMM weighed in between 135 - 140 on fight night he would be around 145 at fight night. Pac would be at around 148, 3 lbs on fight night is not a big deal.
Hell even if the weight limit was 135 or 140, they would still come within 3 lbs of each other on fight night!
Exactly, these imbeciles, act like Marquez coming at a "comfortable" weight will somehow level the playing field. This fight should have happened years ago. Now its nothing more than another sham to steal more money from the casuals and give yet more paper accolades to a paper champion.
Smoke and mirrors.

for the millionth time, there is no minimum weigh limit , only maximum...
jmm can weigh whatever the fukk he wants just as long as he does'nt go over the contractual limit during the offical weigh in....
but why the hell should he cut weight to 135 when he can come in at already comfortable weight of around 144?....that sh1t is stupid to me....
I agree, he should come in at the weight he's most comfortable at, whatever that weight is. Flomo's act like he's being made to come in at 144 which is ludicrous, he can come in at 135, 140, 144 ... anything he wants under the limit!

Roy Jones Jr. 193 pounds vs John Ruiz 226 pounds for a Heavyweight title.
If Marquez learned anything from the Floyd fight, it is that he should have came in at his most comfortable weight so that he isn't sluggish in the ring. Weighing in at 135 will be better then trying to make the contractual limit.
I agree, why do people still think that JMM has to weigh 144. That is the weight limit, he can come in any weight that he wants as long as it's under 144.
So what if Pac has weight advantage? i thought JMM beat him twice? so you Pac haters mean weight advantage would make Pac more superior? is that what u haters were saying? or Pac is really a beast above 130 lbs? Pac wouldnt even reach the welterweight limit come fight night. If JMM is really that good i dont see any problem.
for your information JMM in his best weight, best division couldnt even beat Pac. so you can make all the excuses you want but Pac in his best weight would annihilate JMM. end his career.
