    Just a question about Mayweather vs Pacquiao...

    Right I aint bitching or moaning, or calling hate or any ****... this is a simple question.

    Let's say Floyd beats JMM convincingly... and then fights Pacquiao, I have heard people say the fight MUST happen at 140, but what I am asking is would it make any difference whether its at 140 or 147 because on fight night Pacquiao weighs 148 anyway.

    Once again, I aint bitching, or moaning... it is a simple question, if I am wrong just tell me why and that's fine.

    Ignore the poll, I somehow did it completely wrong!

      Apparently Roach and the fans who agree, doesn't mind fighting Cotto and Mosley at 144 but will only fight Floyd at 140?

      What does that tell you?

          Pac ain't a WW. They should fight at jr WW, tho Mr boat buyer beats him either way imo. The fight is simply more credible at jr WW.

                I get what your saying, but how does it make a difference when in reality they will weigh the same on fight night? Wouldn't it just be a waist of tie getting down to 140 to fight at 147-8 on fight night when they could have just put the fight at 147? Just a question, like I said I aint bitching...

                  Still disagree.

                  Until Pac and the rest show up at JrWW by the actual fight, I cannot accept your arguement.

                  Pac showed up at 148 = 1 pound over WW/147.

                  Let's just skip the charade of the scales and have two fighters healthy.

                  Tell me why it is "credible" at jrWW/140 when NEITHER WILL BE 140 POUNDS WHEN THEY ARE ACTUALLY FIGHTING?


                  Pac already fought at 147/WW against Oscar and won....so why not fight Floyd there?

                  When Floyd was active, he was showing up under 150 for his WW bouts by fight-time.

                  I would rather TWO healthy fighters fight without the risk of one or both showing up flat.

                    He could make 140, he stays within 147 at all times.
