Criticism of Manny "Catchweight King" Pacquiao...

[-----------]

In my opinion...he is NOT that nickname....and I stand corrected on the weight issues regarding DLH and Pac.

It's an unwarrented nickname.

Besides everyone knows Bernard Hopkins is the catchweight king. Pavlik - 170. Winky - 170. Oscar de la hoya - 158 pounds.

So How is Manny the "Catchweight King" again?

Manny shouldnt be called Catchweight king.. cause he hasnt even fought at a catchweight...

i dont think the problem is manny. i seriously think mp will fight cotto at 147. the problem here is roach he wants to protect manny so he is gonna try to get cotto to fight in a unhealthy weight. i hope cotto is smart and dont fight under 147. if he does accept, the fight shouldnt involve the ww belt as they are not fighting at ww level.

Fight JWWs then, or whatever your weight is. if you want to get credit for beatings somebody, you have to fight that guy at a proper weight.

I mean, will you give manny Credit if he KTFO Pavilk at 47? or Kesler at 52? Ect,ect,ect.


Getting people to unhelthy weights is a ***** move, whether is comming up or down.

peopl cant be ****ng on mayweather for taking on JMM at 144, but then praise Manny for getting COtto or Mosley or evev FLoyd himself to lower than 147. thats a ***** move!!!!!

I'm all for not allowing catchweights....lets use this scenario.....Pac unifies the JWW division...which technically shouldn't even exist....and is now "top dog" at 140lbs....what should he do....give up his strengths at his natural weight and move up to 147lbs and get KTFO by natural 147-154lb fighters? The excuses would come flowing out that "he loss due to his size"......and who wants to hear that excuse.....no one....

As far as ****ting on Mayweather for taking up Marquez at 144....Floyd could easily make 140lb....he just chooses to keep his "power" advantage against Marquez....and guess what...becuase Floyd is the draw...Marquez agreed to Floyd's terms....at the end of the day...you want to get in line to get paid and fight the P4P best....sign on the dotted line....if not...someone else will take your place.
