Comments Thread For: Clottey To Weigh 155 Tops, on Fight Night With Pacquiao

[Mr Reality]

Wrong stratergy if he comes lighter than the weight he usually fights at. When you fight a boxer that is faster than you, it gnerally makes sense to counter him with your advantage which is size advantage.

What I can't understand is why Cotto accepted the catchweight fight. Seems he was conned into believing he could outbox any fighter because he was winning fights at WW by outboxing his opponents.

has there ever been a fight night weight clause? ever?

Yes, there was one in the Pac-De la Hoya fight, the contract said that De la Hoya could not weigh more than 147 on fight night, that is why Pac (148lbs) came in heavier than De la Hoya (147lbs) on the night of the fight.

wrong, no fight night limit, and there never was, ever, for any fight. There was a penalty on the scales.

You don't really believe that do you?

Remember Floyd said Team Pac wouldn't give him any "wiggle room"? I believe was talking about fight night weight.

Floyd, Roach, Arum are walking contradictions though. Maybe he was talking about Roach and Arum not wanting to go up to 154 and fight? Or, maybe all that was just bull****...

I cant think of any reason for him to use that term though.
