    Just saying Manny beat the brakes off Oscar and Cotto would help you cleanse
    Pac's resume is a joke.
    McGregor could have wiped out half of his opponents....without any clauses.

      Manny weighed 144 pounds vs Morales. Manny weighed 148 vs Oscar , Oscar was 163 against Floyd and was 147 against Manny.

      Its right there and tells you exactly how much weight Manny went up, 4 pounds and he needed a drained Oscar to pull it off. this is reality!

      You like to count the water lol because youre a fanboy blowing fluff, hype is created for guys like you who are blind to the details that tell the true story.

        DLH knew his next fight was going to be his last.
        Pac was the opponent that gave him that check
        Warrior Pac would never run it back to Cotto without a similar clause

        Barrera 2x (4 years apart !)
        Morales 3x
        Timmy 3x
        JMM 4x

        Cotto once.

        I'm an honest fan.
        You're not an honest fan if you don't acknowledge that De La Hoya cherry picked Pacquaio, not the other way around.

          When did I say he was 135lbs on fight night, dolt?

          I said he'd never fought ABOVE 135 & he hadn't.

          De La Hoya dragged him up BECAUSE he'd never fought above 135lbs at that point.

            So are you saying that the weight they fight at is not important because it sounds better to say he was dragged up two divisions when in reality he moved up 4 pounds, and Oscar came down 20 lbs? If you cant see the facts inside this you are indeed a fanboy.

            Even youre terminology reeks fanboy, first of all Oscar didnt drag him up anywhere. It had nothing to do with 135 and everything to do with status, cash out fight and Mannys momentum, I suggest you go and research the negotiation there were more ups and downs than you know.

            I don't hate on Manny, I don't hate on any fighter but I can be critical based on logical fact, there are some fanboys that rave about Manny vs Oscar when the facts are that's its a very hollow victory no real substance because the perceived handicaps of Manny were actually advantages and the real handicapped fighter was Oscar, its why Freddie Roach said at the weigh-in it wont go 3 rounds, anybody that knows boxing new Oscar was fckd when Manny outweighed him and he did it to himself, no fault of Manny at all, but don't try telling me how badly he beat Oscar without mentioning the real reasons of why.

              Do weight classes matter or not???

              There's a reason there is weight classes & fighters typically don't just move up 2 weight classes & take on the biggest fighter in boxing.

              There's a reason Oscar was by far the favorite in the odds.

              Most people thought he'd annihilate the much naturally smaller man.

                They only matter on paper as a category, humans love to categorize things, the real weight they fight at is the only weight that really matters, this is the weight the combat is conducted at, and you want to forget that and claim the weight where they stare at each other and growl is more important, if you cant see the logic here the fanboy in you is too much.

                There was 4 pound rise in Mannys weight and 20lb loss in Oscars , what part of those facts has trouble breaking into your mind.

                    This is the lamest excuse ever

                    Right and next tell us Juan Manuel Marquez was already fighting welterweights when your crush Floyd pulled him up two weight classes
