WW is 41-47' not 41'-45.

[Addition]

They need another fan man to fly into the arena and protest the weight while the fight is going on.


And he can pass out family packs of encore delight salisbury steak or perhaps lasagna in the 2 pound packages!

Who's the chick in the sig? I'm not into asian chicks but man she's fine.

[MindBat]

Forget official weights.

Watch the fight night weights and that'll tell you how much both fighters really weigh.

Especially Manny, who "refuses to fight at 147".

[crillz]

Thus, Packy is **** outta luck hoping to get that title.

Either fight at 41-47 and NOT at 41-45'....

Or go sell donuts on the streets of Manila.

WELTERWEIGHT IS 147 MAN WTF ARE YOU PEOPLE ON!! all fighters MUST make the Welterweight limit of 147 pound in the weigh in unless there is a contractual agreement such as in this fight which lets A fighter or BOTH fighters come in at a lesser weight, sometimes with no penalties, sometimes you have to pay a fee but if there is no contractual agreement and the fighters didn't make 147 the fight is usually called off, you can probably be 146.8 or something or 147.5 but you can't be a full 2 pounds under the limit and call it a Welterweight title fight. a WW title fight is at 147 NOT 141-147, there is no in-between man, you can add/lose whatever weight you want overnight but going into the weigh in 147 is the limit that WW fighters must come in at, on a normal day if a fighter came in at 141 for a Welterweight weigh in he'd have to put on the rest of the weight, that's just the plainest bit of common sense there is man what's wrong with you?

You fail. You can come in at 41 if you want to as long as you don't exceed 47'...

Noob.

noob? you clearly don't know your ****, you can't come into a WW bout at 141 and expect to fight, THERE ARE CONTRACTUAL AGREEMENTS THAT ALLOW FIGHTERS IN SPECIFIC BOUTS AND SITUATIONS TO COME IN LOWER THAN THE WEIGHT THEY ARE TARGETING TO FIGHT IN, FOR EX. MANNY AND COTTO COME IN AT 145 EACH IN WHAT IS CALLED A WELTERWEIGHT BOUT BECAUSE THEY BOTH CONTRACTUALLY AGREED. this is ****in ****** I can't even believe I'm having this conversation with you man it's so ****in obvious man, 105, 108, 112, 115, 118, 122, 126, 130, 135, 140, 147, 154, 160, 168, 175, 185 and 200 are all weight LIMITS that must be met depending on your weight division, ever heard the term "the fighter made the weight"? that means he met his weight class limit on the weight in date and can fight, now AFTER the weigh in he can gain or lose whatever he likes but he can't show up at 141 and expect **** to still go down unless the contract allowed him to do that..

when you meet a fighter in between a weight class that is referred to as a catch weight, since there is no such thing officially as a catch weight in terms of being a weight class by itself they target a weight, for instance Cotto-Pacquiao is at 145 but they call it Welterweight anyways, why? because for 1 fight that's going to be the weight limit for them, that's what they are training for and since it's closer to WW on paper that's how it goes down but 141-146 is a catch weight while 140 and 147 are REAL recognized weight divisions in Boxing. this is insane that YOU, calling yourself a fight fan, would dispute this with me as not a fact, absurd..

[KingTito]

Very true. If it's not at the WW limit then the belt isn't on the line.

[nujabes77]

Isn't 145 between 141 and 147?

I couldn't care less anyways, this topic bores me now.

41-47 is WW


41-45 is still WW



and for the $10mil+ that Cotto is getting, PAC could tell HIM to sell donuts in Manila...and miguel would do it

dap is trippin lately...

[gusto910]

If pacquio wants to be WW champ, then fight between the weight limits which are 140-147 lbs. Do you know how hard it is to lose a couple extra lbs?

[Bogler]

this topic's getting boring. one side wont be able to convince the other so might as well drop it.
