    He's the one moving up, from what 110 pounds? He's already moved up in weight enough. He's also the smaller fighter so if anyone wants to fight him he can make demands because he's also the main man in boxing right now.

      Manny isn't moving up from 110 ... he was fighting at 140 his last fight vs Hatton.

      the fact that Pac was once 110 .. not very relevant to today as Floyd started at 130

      and just because he's the main man doesn't mean he should be able to push around demands.

      as when it comes to weight, it can seriously have negative effects on the fighters

      where things like ring size or glove type do not directly effect the fighters nearly as much.

        I don't think Mayweather ever intended to make 144. He was training for 146 or 147. I think if he really had to make it, he could do it. Too much money in penalities if he was overweight.
