Roach: "Pac will fight Mosley @ 142, Cotto @ 140"

[Brail]

that's cause floyd is a big dude and grew into the 147 lbs division.

Pac is a small dude and can still make 138 lbs.

if cotto and mosley don't like the catchweights, they can fight each other instead of trying to make a pac fight.

Floyd and Manny are similar in fight night weight (optimum performing weight).
Floyd just don't like going through the dehydration/Re-hydration process.

They both are also prize fighting (fighting the fights that bring the the most money--regardless the division they campaign at), - Which is the main reason Floyd went to welterweight in the first place (moving up divisions in pursuit of Delahoya).

good points, but can floyd make 138 lbs?

It easier going up than down and Floyd is coming down to JMM after a long lay off so he may be able to make 138 if he had to by the time a Pac fight is on the table , I believe Floyd is slightly bigger than Manny but nothing like the Cotto Mosley deal . I think a fight at 140 weigh-in weight can be made for these too without a lot of trouble , Floyd is on his way to this fight .

roach is ****in nuts man, cotto would get KO'd before the weigh in

***** move by team Pacquiao!!!!!!!

They fought DLH at 147, and they fought a guy who wweights 153+ pounds fight night. So neither should be an excuse!!!!!!!!

Wanting people at unhealthy weights its a ***** move!!!!!!!

If people bashes Floyd for what he did for the JMM fight, pacquiao sould get the same threatment!!!!!!!!

Its nobodys fault and nobodys ***** move its the sign of the times where elite fighters are manipulating the 30 hr weigh-in to gain an advantage over smaller fighters fighting closer to the real division weight , to be fair if your the little guy whats wrong with trying to level the playing field .

ODH didnt weigh 153 he was 145 and dry as as a bone , Roach trained ODH he had a good idea he could not make the weight and for a huge payday and showed smart match making , hats off to him .

First everybody fights under the same rules and system, pacquiao did the same when he was fighting at 126,130.

Second, whe did I said that Oscar weighted 153?

Oscar weighted 145 weight in and 147 fight night. So thats one guy he fought at 147. And then he fought Hatton who came in at 153 and his average fight night weight is 152-157, just like Cottos.


So wanting people at unhealthy weights its a bicth move period!!!!!!

Floyds next fight is at 144.

Then why mention Oscar at 153 as it was not relative to the Pac fight and you used it in such a way that he fought ODH so why not Cotto , yet the real weights are not close , Pac was not making a WW statement he was picking a target they was big money at calculated risk , how on earth came it be a ***** mover for Pac but fair game that Cotto gets to monster a guy by 12 pds at least on the night ,, wanting a guy to fight at level weight is not a ***** move its not Pacs fault Cotto is so much bigger than him .

Cotto comes in closer to 160 , its too much far for Pac who barely breaks 147 thats the bottom line ,, maybe Cotto should go for Pavlik and give him 12+ pounds on the night , would Cotto be a ***** if Pavlik challenged him and Cotto said he wanted a catchweight , I dont think so !!

[fitty_mafioso]

If Pacman wants to fight them and make history he should fight them at a healthy weight otherwise he might aswell stay at 140 and fight the other guys there and the 135 guys
