overwieght in wieght-in is now called "pulling a mayweather"

[Benny Leonard]

Maybe we should call him "Shylock"?

HAHAHAHA...you said it, not me...although I was about to put it down but then took it back. Trying to calm the ***ish stuff right now.

Pacino popped into my head as I was thinking it.

He didn't make weight and he still drawed?

HAHAHAHA...you said it, not me...although I was about to put it down but then took it back. .

I just went ahead and assumed that only a select few people would get it and that they would also find it humorous.

So pulling a Pac would be to....be "The Butcher": he'll take you after you're shot, aged, and is allowed to chop off pounds of flesh.


I had to; that was to easy.

aged? the oldest guy PAC fought is JMM
shot? aside from probably PAC-EM3 & Oscar who else?
chopped pounds? aside from cotto who else, oscar wanted to fight him at WW?

anyway the butcher in boxing may not be so bad ... lolz

Well it would only be a select few I guess...although doesn't everyone read Shakespeare's work at some point?

When I get into my moods I've written down some things that went unnoticed many times but it is funny when someone catches it.

I suppose most everyone reads Romeo and Juliet and then maybe Hamlet or Othello.

Merchant Of Venice is one that isn't widely read in the schools in my experience.

Yup. Big disappointment for me, I thought Sonsona was a star in the making.

He didn't just miss the weight, he was a full 2.5 pounds over.

Ah, first it was a joke that was played off of other posters and...not everybody ages the same. You are going by birth age...doesn't work like that...ask Freddie Roach. But either way, it is meant to be closer to hyperbole.

My sister had the complete works of Shakespeare soooo.......no gay.
I was trying to build up my reading skills... dyslexia.

good luck with that one ask the espn writers to use your idea ... but ive been noticing that pulling a mayweather has been used in some article even before the cotto-pac fight.
