[KickAzz]

would floyd's career be tarnished for fighting martinez at a catchweight for his middleweight championship?

[pbftxrs316]

ret, it would imo----i don't see floyd doing that though----he would have done so with oscar----but i tell all this now, manny's last title win was bs---it wasn't from 146 to 145 either----it was 147 to 145----i don't know why he gets credit for that---when he fought oscar at 147, and there are people who said he made oscar weight 145 also----idk if that's a rumor or not, but the fight was advertised at 147----but even though a pound or 2 doesn't make a difference to you people, it makes a difference to a fighter---i know---weight means a lot when you fight---if it didn't, manny would have fought at 147 wouldn't he have? floyd came in over 144 against jmm and was bashed---manny should be bashed for winning a title 2 pounds under the official weight and have the nerve to be called the ww champion of the world, when it was a vacated title cotto won again anyway, if i'm not mistaken---

so, if manny does it again, it's another non legit title he won----*** the record books if they recognize him as the champ in a legit manner anyway---floyd beat the official ww champion at 147, and floyd was 146----he fought oscar at 148 when oscar gained 12 pounds the night of the fight----and was healthy looking also--that being oscar----

and mosley didn't get a fight with manny twice in 2009 coz he couldn't go down to 142--and shane said 143---so that one pound does make a difference people----you have to realize how hard it is for us fighters to make weight and fight hard without feeling weak----or drained----boxing weight is very hard to maintain---trust me----

it's funny that manny makes shane go down in weight, but not oscar(or did he), then fights cotto at 145, but couldn't fight shane in 09 at 143? then fights clottey at 147, coz clottey didn't have a belt----then doesn't fight floyd last spring or now------priced himself out and wants cutoffs on blood tests----the cat is coming out of the bag---arum is a slimeball and manny is feeding off of it arum's ball----or balls----

if manny can't make 154 which i believe he cannot----then he doesn't need to go for the title----and he's going after either a guy who had 1 fight in over 16 months or a guy who he already beat up just last fall-----at a lower catchweight-----for titles also---what a skam----anyway, what do you people think---more responses please----

[Carpe Diem]

Catchweight King..Nice nickname.

[roxy]

This is a weak thread. Making up this kind stuff just because Mayweather is running from Pacquiao! Why not make simular threads about all the other fighters Mayweather avoided too?

[royin]

catchweights are ok. it has been done many times before and is necessary for the safety of the boxers.

[cupocity303]

that is bull**** and you people know it-----if he fights for no title, it's okay with me, there's nothing wrong with that in my book at all----he goes for a record breaking 8th title, his last 2 title wins don't count-----agree or disagree?

This is indisputable fact, truth and nothing but the truth...

They are fine but not for world titles, the title should be defended while giving both fighters the opportunity to weigh in at the weight class limit I think.

[Weebler I]

Pac isn't scared to fight at 147 or 154, it's just Roach being cautious as he steps up. And no, it won't affect his legacy because he's shown he can fight at those weights (well 147 anyway, although I'm sure he'll hack it at 154) with equal success.
