    If you are talking about the weight issue I said that there is an advantage to both fighters fighting at 147 for this fight. Instead of dehydrating 9 pounds for the weigh-in for a 140 pound weigh-in, and then rehydrating 9 pounds for fight-time...at 147 you would only have to piss out 2 pounds and then drink 32 oz Gatorade to rehydrate. To only have to lose 2 pounds an then put 2 pounds back on is much healthier and can keep the fighters fresher than the other.

    You said Ricky Hatton has advantages over Floyd at welter.

    Ricky Hatton has never once looked good at 147.

    He has NO advantages over anyone at that weight.

      Please show me where so I know what exactly you are talking about.

      The last two of your sentences were already explained.

        if you think Morales was healthy against Raheem you're nuts. The only thing it meant for Morales was that he didn't have to do roadwork in the hills like he usually does but he wasn't anywhere near his best because he didn't have to force himself to 130 it just meant he trained less and it showed.
        Didn't Morales say he was struggling with the weight and he wanted to fight as a lightweight which was the reason why he took the fight with Zahir...

        Zahir was a very skilled boxer but I don't consider Morales in his prime anyway. Zahir made Morales look every bit his boxing age from wear and tear.

        Do you know for a fact he didn't train accordingly?
        We are talking about Morales...

        And did you see how ill he looked when he had to move back down to 130 for Pac?

        People on these boards were screaming about why Morales would have to move down.

          Floyd of course. Being an ATG doesn't mean you are popular it just means you are the best.

            Michael Jennings is a higher ATG than both Floyd and Pacquiao.

            Real talk.

              yes I do.

              and I was at this weigh in as well and he looked every bit the guy who was thankful he didnt have to train hard to make 130 yet still struggled to get to 134.

                According to Benny, Roach andPac are Cowards doing cowardly acts. True story.

                    Why I don't take the poll seriously?

                    1. People HATE Mayweather
                    2. A high percentage of Pac fans are DUMB

                      So you have spoken to Morales on this?


                      If a fighter is thankful he doesn't have to kill himself to make weight, what's wrong with that?

                      He looked ILL when he moved back down.

                      There is working hard and then there is working too hard. The body can only take so much before you stress it out to the point of lethargy.


                      Maybe Pac just isn't working hard enough to continue to fight at 130-135.
