Probably not.. Cotto was a legit threat, Foreman is just not.. i would laugh if they did yet another Catch weight tho.

as long as Pacquaio comes in at 148 there is no problem.

and anyway Pacquaio can reach the light middleweight no problem.

how can roy jones fight john ruiz at heavyweight and not lennow lewis?

it's called different levels of competition.

there's a lot of guys i think floyd can beat at 168. i wouldn't put him up against abraham at 168 though.

because he didn't want to?

pac has negotiating power.

ask floyd. floyd had to give in to all of his demands too.

I didn't have Pacquiao down as a cherry picker but Yuri Foreman at 154? Christ, he shouldn't get a pass for that one.

Cotto at 145...but Foreman at 154
