Rewatched Pacquiao vs Clottey ... and

[TDEEZY58]

You guys are forgetting that Oscar had to come down to 147. Oscar hasd't weighed 147 in almost a decade. So while did have to come up they made Oscar come down. Roach new that was too much weight for him to lose and that he would be too drained by fight time. On top of that Manny never should have made Cotto come down to 145. Manny had proven that 147 was comfortable for him. He also was fighting for a welterweight title. The weight limit should have been 147. Manny makes just as many demands as Floyd and Oscar so you can't believe what you hear and read but know that there are some things that don't get reported.

Pac will beat Shane now. A prime Shane vs Pac would be a very evenly matched fight. Two fast hard punchers with alot of energy. At this point Shane is too slow and doesn't have that young mans stamina to just stay busy for an entire fight.

Floyd will beat Pac and Shane because he has mastered his Offence landing at 60% and his defence where he only lets you hit him with 10%

A slap on the wrist... Fight might not continue if the weight limit is breached. It is the weight class maximum... More complications if May decides to get an advantage like he did Marquez. The penalty is good for sneaky no principle fighters like Mayweather.

lol so Pacquiao will make more money out of Mayweather by being over the limit.

if the fight is not a catch weight why would you put a penalty. I think pacquiao and roach used this to put stress on the fighter, so instaed of training to fight they train to make weight. That's what they are trying to do with floyd.

Sorry to tell you but every fighter trains to make weight. So while your training "to fight" your also cutting weight...It's called boxing.

I watched the fight today from O.S.I.R.I.S first thx for that. Manny Pacquiao is an awesome fighter I like his style a lot everytime he fights you see a lot of action even the ladies in the audience go crazie. But I can not agree what Lampley and Steward were saying in the end of the fight. I like Pacquiao but the fact is in his fight he made demands like the catchweight for the Cotto , De la Hoya fight and nobody criticise him for that. I mean he is great but I would not say he is great like Ali,Sugar Ray Robinson , Sugar Ray Leonard, Hagler, Tyson. Manny did not want to fight Mosley, he did not give Marquez a third fight and what is the worst thing is the catchweight. I can imagine that Pacman beat even stop Floyd but I do not accept his demands for his fights every pound 10 Million $ as a sort of punishment or the catchweight clause . Much worse is that nobody mentions that things. Do not get me wrong I love Pacman's fighting style but I just want euquality.What do you guys think of that ?

Cotto has weigh in before at 146 at ww. So 1 pound did not make a big diffirence.

Against Dela Hoya, Pac jumped at 2 weight division, while Dela Hoya moved down 1. It was the most fair thing to do. You cannot blame Pac for Oscar coming in 145 at official weigh in and below 150 during fight night. Oscar over did his diet. Oscar should have hire an expert dietician/trainer so he can reach 147 limit then come in at least 160 during fight night.
