roach sure was not complaing about pac being 147 for the dlh fight
Well, Manny actually weighed 142, but wasn't the Oscar fight / 147 just a one-off? I thought it was. Roach also said later that he wants to keep Manny closer to 140. Don't hate. This is lil' Pacquiao here, not some legit Welterweight. He weighs 148-ish on fight night... so is it really fair to pit him against guys who enter the ring as Middleweights?
works both ways its not fair for pac if he fights a heavier fighter,its not fair to any other fighter if they go done in weight to the point that affects their ability to fight and not fair to the fans because you only see one fighter at their best.
What a joke. Manny wants to fight the big dogs but the big dogs need to drain their body's for the fights to happen. I like Manny a lot but to ask the 2 best welterweights in the world to fight at 140 and 142 is a ***** move.
He knows Cotto and Mosley will kill him at 145 or 147 so he wants them tu put their health on the line to fight him.

***** MOVE!!
the bigger ***** move is that Cotto and Mosley want to fight a jr WW.
Dude.. Neither Cotto or Mosley can make those weights.
Now who is really ducking who?
Vlad could not make it either does that mean Manny is ducking him , Manny is at least 12 pds lighter on fight night than those guys get that through your head , you dont see Mosley and Cotto wanting Pavlik which is the same scenario .

Exactly.
It really does work both ways. It's a ***** move asking him to compete with much bigger guys like Cotto. WTF. How difficult is it too see this? He is out-sized and out-weighed at 147 going against dudes who enter the ring at 160 with height and reach advantages. F'king ridiculous. People, stop bitching about Roach for wanting to level the playing field and make sure his fighter doesn't end up dead. Can't make the weight? Then **** off and find another fight. Simple.
