There is NOTHING wrong with Floyd facing Martinez at a catch weight.

[Calilloyd]

it's not a lie. team pac wanted 143. team cotto wanted 145. team pac gave into team cotto's limit. so 145 was cotto's number, not pac's.

Who wanted the catchweight? Pacquaio or Cotto? You're trying to make it seem like this was for Cotto's benefit. If Cotto had his way it would have been at 147. So no, 145 was not HIS number.

Catchweight or no catchweight....we dont care if floyd faces martinez later on...we care about seeing floyd / pac for P4P #1 Place and supremacy....everything else is in deal but floyd being himself wants more then a 50-50 split even after pac accepted the 14 day deal which is now apparently expired but when floyd fighted mosley he had a 18 day window deal??? if Pac and Floyd fight and if floyd win or lose then i wouldnt mind watching him fight martinez then....

145 was cotto's number. it is 1 lbs south of his weight against clottey.

for the title?

no 100% wrong

When I read the thread title I thought it was meant as sarcasm. Then I read the thread author and realized he was dead serious. Then I laughed.

bingo

this is in no way about Martinez and his choice in fact I commend him like I did Cotto for taking a fight regardless of the silly issues being put in front of him

People do not realize how "little" some guys get paid. If your sergio and you are 34 you'll fight floyd at 150 because no one else can guarantee him $5 mil plus.

lol a lot of hypocricy in this thread. not surprising in the least.

Elaborate or enlighten us please......

But 3 lbs south of the tune up before pac.

Will you criticize Floyd for making JMM fight @ 144 (and originally wanting it at 147)

Will you criticize Floyd for making Hatton fight at 147?

Or is it "different" when it comes to Floyd? Am I about to see fight nights weights and all that jazz because its "different" when it comes to Floyd?

pac wanted the catchweight, but 145 was cotto's number, not pac's

We're not talking about his fight with Clottey. Different training camp, different fight. The fight with Margarito he came in at 147. So? That has nothing to do with it. And the limit for Clottey was 147, not 145.
