You ever heard of a search engine, or was that a failed comeback since you've been owned?
I did look it up and yes there was a link but it was this thread.

Originally posted by PureBoxer View PostManny Pacquiao has put massive weight penalties on several opponents.
1.) Erik Morales, after struggling to make weight against Raheem in a one-sided loss, fought Pacquiao in a rematch at one weight division lower. Pacquiao put a massive weight penalty in the contract with an absurd fine if he came in a single lb over the limit. Morales killed his body to make weight, couldn't hydrate properly, and Pacquiao came in the ring bigger to add insult to injury.
2.) Manny Pacquiao put a weight penalty on Oscar De La Hoya. If he came in a single lb over the limit, he would be fined an absurd amount.
3.) Pacquiao forced Cotto to fight him at a catch-weight and forced him to put up his belt on line even after Cotto said he didn't want to since he wasn't allowed to weigh-in at his full limit.
The commission has it's own rules to punish anyone who fails to make weight. It is not a boxer's job to set the fine amounts. An example is below:
Manny Pacquiao, in 1999, around the same time Mayweather was dominating opponents such as Hernandez and Manfredy as the official champion, failed to make weight. Pacquiao lost his title on the scales and was penalized by the COMMISSION. Pacquiao was knocked out in the 3rd round by Singsurat despite having an unfair weight advantage.
Pacquiao has requested Mayweather wear 8oz gloves. This is only allowed by the commission if both fighters agree, as 10oz gloves are standard. Mayweather, showing his desire to get the fight signed, agreed to Pacquiao's demand.
Pacquiao then requested Mayweather be fined $10M if he weighs in a single lb over 147. This is the job of the commission, not Pacquiao, but Mayweather once again agreed.
Mayweather's only demand, was OSDT, which would be done to both of them, not just Pacquiao. This is allowable by the commission if both sides agree, just like Pacquiao's glove size demand. After initially agreeing, Pacquiao would change his mind and once again try to change the rules of an official organization, by requesting the USADA to change their standard rules and set cutoff dates which would render the random testing useless.
It's time Pacquiao stop trying to change the rules and let these organizations do their job. His behavior has been a total embarrassment to the sport of Boxing.

To IAMDAZED adn Pure boxer, just to be fair, i did search for it till i found it. But you are misquoting Ariza. Either you didn't understand what he said or you just posted that quote and explaining it in your own way that you want peope to believed in. Did you guys read the whole interview? It was the same link also that one of you guys posted.
Alex Ariza: “Just that’s it. It’s almost like a witch hunt. None of it is warranted. I’ve read, I’m in charge, he doesn’t know what he’s taking.
Ariza was saying what he read about him being critized in the media/Mayweather-GBP. Meaning he read that some media/Mayweather-GBP said that he was in charge of all supplements that he gave to Pac and does not tell Pac what those supplements are.Last edited by loui_ludwig; 04-12-2010, 11:32 PM.

The initial quote is somewhere in BoxingScene archives.
