Only reason that Roach/Pac were CONSIDERING 154 was for a TITLE at 154

      floyd weighed in against jmm at 146, so that proves he can make 147, so no point in wanting it at 154lbs, and manny has the WW(147) belt that floyd wants, so the fight cant be above 147.


      however floyd has had hand problems so that is probably why floyd would want 10oz gloves, but imho floyd is probably trying to get an advantage against pac.

      floyd already has a huge advantage, since floyd hasnt fought since september and he didnt take many hard hits, pacquiao on the other hand fought in november and took a hell of a beating. that imo is a big enough advantage
      Why did Manny accept then if the bold is true?

      Manny wanted this fight, I refuse to believe that he was "forced" to fight.

      He has said more than once that he wants to fight Mayweather then retire.

        But he wasn't ducking.

        Appeared is the operative word.

          Get real with this one.

          P.S. - So Pac could only go up to snatch a title from a mediocre titlist? Got it.
          exactly man..but to his credit, he was not around yesterday.

            discussing my options with the head CEO of my company. Either I move with them to Dallas or look for another job by Feb. Who knows? Might be a sign that Pac/May may be heading there?

              Giving Yuri the 154 weight advantage was acceptable due to the reward (belt in 8th) and Pac is a better skilled fighter.

              Requesting this kind of weight/glove advantage by someone who is arguably more skilled than his opponent is just a plain ***** tactic.

              IF WHAT ROACH SAID IS TRUE FLOYD IS A BIGGER ***** THAN I THOUGHT!!!

                anyway, I'm just doing my part to make this forum unbearable. I just wanna see them fight. I would prefer May IF it's gonna happen in Dallas because I wanna go all out for the weekend and plan to spend ALOT of money doing so

                  man why is this even an issue?? the yuri talk was all talk and was probably aruma and roach showing floyd they have other options and they dont need him.

                  and more importantly YURI FOREMAN SUCKS, team pac respects floyd's skills they're not ****y idiots. theyre not gonna give him all the advantages in the world.

                  everyone knows this fight should be at 147 stop justifying floyd's demands (if theyre real)
