    If he stays at welter, he will catch loads of criticism down the road.
    not if he can MAKE the weight..

    Calzafge stayed at 168 til his mid thirties...

    Dela Hoya is going back to 147 and is the most popular fighter in AMERICA.

      DLH moved up though. And Calzaghe gets nothing but **** from all angles. Im just telling you the way its gonna be CMONMANG. I say **** it, if he can make the weight and is gonna be lousy at the higher weights, then fine. I wont lose any sleep over it.

          It just my opinion of what people are gonna say. Personally I couldnt care less what Margarito does with his career. If he can make the weight, **** it. But there might very well be a day when he can longer make 147....

                What about HOF Bernard hopkins? he stayed at 160 for MOST of his carrer, let's make a thread about that.

                  He has been criticized for this.

                  Its not the end of the world.

                      I don't have a problem with the fighters like Margarito and Williams who may be big for the division but still fairly make the weight.

                      I have a problem with the weigh-in procedures.

                      Go back to the day of the fight.
