    Maybe if Floyd could make 135 he would have, so youre saying Manny cant make 147 anymore?

      Both of them adjusted. Period.
      He's still fighting the bigger man. How much more can you argue?

      About Oscar...
      That was before...

      Is he now?

        Quotes like "All these guys are beating each other but none of them have beat me" are a complete joke and ruin his credibility amongst the hard core fans.

        That was a complete joke from Mayweather and am glad the interviewer called him out on it, How are you going to claim all of them are beating each other when you havent been in the ring with anyone of them?

          floyds natural weight now, 147, pacquiaos natural weight now 135, imo, floyd probably came in 10 to 15 pounds heavier than jmm fight night and pacquiao will probably be 10 to 15 pounds lighter than miguel cotto fight night, so c'mon floyd more of a risk taker, using current logic.

            Pacquiao's natural weight now is 140, At 135 he was reported to be draining himself. Roach himself confirms this.

              How can you say Manny's natural weight right now is 135, how does that make sense.

                Is he now what? Point is Pac fights guys at weights that benefit him and everyone wants to be blind to this. Floyd wanted to fight Oscar at 147, but Oscar said no, 154 or no fight, but Pac keeps dragging these guys to weights where they dont normally fight and all of a sudden he is so amazing, get out of here.

                  manny could probably make 135, and his last fight was at 140. This proves he's not a natural welterweight, so Cotto is moving down 2lbs while Manny is moving up 5. Is this a hard concept to understand?

                  Why is Manny moving up and adjusting in the first place, shouldnt this be floyds fight at 147? cotto and floyd wouldnt have to adjust if they fought each other, but since Manny has bigger balls this is what we're getting. and why did floyd make JMM move up?

                    why not avoid Cotto and retire only to come back and call out a light weigh? Eh, think Ill go with fighting Cotto at 145......

                      Whatever that makes no sense at all, believe what you want to believe. Tell me how much Pac and Floyd gain on fight night.
