    IF Pac beats Mosley at a "catch weight"...will Pac get credit?

    If Mosley comes down to 143-144 to fight Pac, will Pac get credit if he beats Mosley? Mosley has been more active than DLH and made 147 easily against Margocheato....losing an extra 3-4lbs of muscle (since Mosley doesn't "walk" around bloated between fights) in my opinion, shouldn't be too hard for him, and thus should equal to Pac getting full credit for a win against him, be it a SD, UD or heaven forbid...TKO....
    Come fight night though...guaranteed...Mosley WILL re-hydrate back to JMW weight...

    He got credit for fighting a corpse the other time so he will be hailed as someone who's better than Sugar Ray Robinson,Ali,Fraser and anyone you might think of

      I'll give pacman full credit, may it be ud, sd, tko or ko, mosley is the naturally bigger guy but shane doesn't walk around bloated like hatton in between fights, so i say he can (with a little struggle) go down in weight for this fight, but unlike DLH, i think his body will adjust to it quite fine.

          He would

          But he shouldn't.. Mosley is 38 and hasn't fought below 147 for 10years..

            Co-sign Pacquiao should be fighting JMM and Mosley should be fighting Cotto.

                    I hate these "catchweights" as much as the next "boxing fan"...but if all people want to see are "MEGA FIGHTS".....unfortunately that's what we have to accept....if we say that the fight will take place at 147lbs...we all know that Manny will be coming in at around 140-142 at weigh in...and Mosley would come in at 147....come fight night..Pac would probably come in at 147-148....while Mosley would come in at 154-155....
                    I can see why Team Pac, more specifically Roach, would want to fight WWs, but only if they come down...he is protecting his fighter or at least...just trying to "level" the playing field for Manny against bigger fighters....but then again...there are no more "Big Money" fights for Manny at LW/JW except for JMM...and even then...IF Manny beats Marquez...no credit would be given to Pac..."Marquez is shot...Marquez is too old....Marquez is now a ***** after he fought FLoyd.....blah blah blah..."
                    As long as money rules who fights who...catchweights are here to stay...
