Why won't Pacquiao move to Welterweight?

[ßringer]

alright good, lets keep this place respectable guys! lol

I'm still loving the NEW Middlweight Champion of the Woooooooooooorld! Sucks I can't get paid what someone owes me though. Damn Taylor fans bet and run away.

I dont know why people keep addressing the myth of the Pac nuthuggers...imo it doesnt exist. Sure he has fans but I havent read anything particularly crazy. The only crazy stuff Ive read has come from Floydboys or our friends south of the border, with some hate-speech coming from both white and black racists and some english vs American hate.

Well already today I saw a Pac nuthugger say that Pac KO'd Morales 3 times, and that Morales on his best day could never beat Pac..........

so pacquiao weighs 144 on fight night. big deal.

welterweights like cotto, williams, and margarito all weigh around 160 before the fight. what about cintron?

pac would look like an ant compared to kermit the frog.

Because the guys at 147 weigh 155 for their fights, big difference. Mayweather would pound pac to submission, I will bet the house if that fight were to happen.

thats an error though. theres no insanity there, it is logical to think that IF Pac had beaten morales 3 times that he would have always beaten morales.

That's why I want him to move up.

I'm sick of reading Pac nuthuggers saying he would crush Mayweather. I wouldn't even consider myself a Mayweather fan and I realize Pac would be schooled. If Marquez could do it, Mayweather certainly could.

I'd bet everything I have, plus my username, user title, and avatar and sig on it.

Being right about Pavlik from the start is worth much more than 10K. And having a Middleweight Champion who's not afraid to fight anybody is priceless.

He just weighed in at 144lbs on Saturday night against Barrera, Welterweight is 3lbs north of that with much better competition including Mosley, De La Hoya, Mayweather, Hatton(if he stays there), Cotto, Cintron, and Williams.

I post this question because I keep reading Pacquiao fans saying Pac would annihilate Mayweather, if so, why not move up?

The only real fights left in his division is a Marquez rematch, and a war with Katsidis. Guzman is an overrated hype job who will get KTFO when he steps up in competition like Rey Bautista did, and he hasn't even earned a shot at Manny.

So why not just move up? The competition is there, the fights are there, and if he wants to be considered an all time great, his legacy requires it.

Let Floyd go back to 135. Then Pac, the most exciting p4p king ever would gladly OBLITERATE him.
