    And now he is willing to compromise to make the fight happen. Still haven't grasped that concept? Instead of appreciating a boxer willing to try and make the fight happen, you continue to dwell on the past.

          IM 100% sure all big fights have weight penalties in the contract, whether Floyd, Pac, Cotto or Marquez

          And they followed the rules, didnt cheat and there was no penalty.

          I mean why did Marquez have one if Floyd never weighed over? Think about it

              I beleive he is fully justified in his demands IMO
              He is justified to ask for an unprecedented weight penalty when the commission takes care of that?

                  I honestly think that if a fighter weighs over, then the fight should be cancelled and the fighters would weighed over should be financially responsible.

                  Other then ****ing with the gloves, it is the biggest way a fighter can cheat

                  You hear people saying that Cotto Lost because of the 2 pound Penalty and then you hear the same person saying the 2 pounds floyd weighed over wouldnt have any effect on the out come

                    Answering a question. with another question I see.

                    I already answered that many times. You have yet to grasp the concept of compromising.

                    Clogged with yesterday's excess, the body drags the mind down with it.

                      I agree with you. But the Commission fines fighters that miss weight. Let me ask you this, Manny put his own weight penalty on both Morales and Cotto and they had never missed weight...was he justified in doing so?
