    Roach: We'll Fight Mayweather at Catchweight!!

    e wouldn’t fight Mayweather (if he opts to come out of retirement) at 147. We might be willing to at a catch weight but not at 147," Roach said.

    Roach also said it would be too difficult for the negotiations because Floyd will ask for a lot of money..

      So Manny can fight a 154 pounder at 147lbs, so long as he drains himself to skeletal status. Now they want Floyd to do the same?

        Pac better focus on Hatton. PBF is a loss waitin to happen. And PBF should go after the top WW if he's gonna fight again.

            A catchweight won't be bad for Mayweather, I think he can make 140 so a catchweight should be OK but as Roach said, money could be a factor.

              oh please, stop making excuses. Floyd was a tiny welterweight to begin with. He came in fight night like at 149, so if he fights at 140 he'll probably balloon up to 149

                i think hatton-pacquiao has a better chance of happening than mayweather-pacquiao.

                floyd's going to want too much of the cut.

                    I'm not making excuses, I'm just pointing it out. I have no problem with the fight being at 140, 147, 154, Manny gets lit up whichever division he decides to fight Floyd in.
