    First of all, that was a welterweight fight with a catch weight clause written in.

    Last time I checked, catch weights weren't weight classes.

    The catch weight was written in to the contract, as was the penalty clause.

    If you want to get technical, there you go.
    So,

    why the fine?

    Last I checked, boxers who make their contracted weights don't pay fines.


    Can you clear this up for me.

And who can forget about that robbery a few weeks ago where Guzman got a nice candy bar for a gift?

      Golden Boy is trying to shove another fight that doesn't need to happen between Hatton and JMM down our throats and you suckers are just letting them pawn this mismatch off on us. Golden Boy has also tried to keep Shane Mosley as a yes man for their company as well so Mayweather can keep avoiding him just because Hatton and DLH had a bigger fan base.
      Paulie got robbed the first fight, the forums blew up about it. If it's a fight people want to see, how is it bad for the sport?

      I agree on the Mosely thing, but whatcha gonna do? Bad matches are ruining interest the sport, but on the promotion side they're probably making more money than ever. Whats the answer? Not watch/buy PPVs and let the sport die?

        And you honestly think that someone who smuggles and sells drugs isn't using it?

          I totally agree with Jake Donovan.
          Very complete and accurate job.

          Greedy boy promotion exposed.
          Manny said "**** yall"and he is right.

          They disrespected Manny,boxing is a sport and business,so you have to respect the persons you work or want to work with.

              Why the catch weight? It was negotiated in to the contract.

              Why the fine? It was negotiated in to the contract.

              I can probably reduce it to grunting noises beyond that.

                Then you need to apologize to the writer for saying his piece is biased.


                Floyd came in above 144 with intentions of cheating the system.

                    Pac is the king as simple as that and he should not be push around by the challenger by so many wishes. First, the venue, the size of the gloves and the bloody test. MP agreed then the next day an addition etc. Pacquiao has nothing to prove but the father and son and GBP has the burden of proof. You prove in court that MP is really a user. BTW, the family of the pacman has no any criminal record or of drug pushing or anything about drugs huh! I don't know about the father and son and family.
                    About the fight? Let MP fight Shane Mosley who is the real fighter who fights anybody, not a choosy undefeated who only fights those lower in class.

                      I agree with you on this one. You forgot to mention that the suit settlement should have a big impact on their wallet. The case will not go to trial and will be settled out of court.
