    Floyd looking for any and every advantage

    March 13th - Manny has little time to rest from Cotto fight, less time to learn Floyd's style and his body seems to grow every fight.

    154 lbs - Are you serious? Floyd only fought there once to get the ODLH fight, why the hell would he want Pac to fight at 154 unless he's scared and needs size advantage? Even more of one.

    10 oz gloves - Again, I'm pretty sure Floyd used 8 oz normally but for Pac he wants 10 oz? Chicken **** right there..

    You know, I started this by going 'Oh, would you stop?' Then I saw it...154. That is a bit much.

    But really, stop complaining. You know damn well that roach is not going to allow too much crap to go on. He is VERY protective of Pacquiao.

          Margarito and his Plaster of Paris is a lesser cheat than this. AN intelligent move by the Mayweather camp. Cunning but still cheating

            Now you're being a frigging idiot. This is NOT cheating. Just like 145 catchweight is not cheating. It's bull****, but it IS NOT cheating.

                Funny ****, eh? Yesterday Roach is just talking out of his ass. Today however, he's had a change of heart, and is the most honest man alive.

                *******s credit Roach ONLY when it's convenient for them.

                    It's a ploy by Mayweather to try to get more money. You say you want the fight at 154 but you'll take it at 147 if, say, they agree to 55-45 split in his favor. As for the gloves, I'm pretty sure that they'll have to wear 10 oz gloves if the fight is in Nevada. The NSAC mandates 10 oz gloves for any fight north of 140 lbs. If the fight is in Dallas, tho, they can choose 8 oz gloves.

                    BTW, Manny will still wear puncher's gloves, which means that the 2 extra ounces will be near his wrist, not in the padding. The glove just has to weigh 10 ounces, it doesn't have to have the padding up front.
