Comments Thread For: Pacquiao-Margarito: Manny To Demand 150-Pound Weight

[Fistic]

Thats the same argument people were making when he wanted to fight Cotto at 145. People were saying "Oh, Cotto is bigger than Pacquiao, its fair." "its only two pounds under Cotto's usual weight." People fail to realize what really matter which is the integrity of the sport. Instead they spew out enfatuation driven arguments in defence of the catchweight king.

So I guess it is okay for him to win titles at catchweights and then defend them at the actual weight, ala Clottey. Lets just hope he defends the 154 belt at 154 against Mayweather or Martinez-- oh wait, their not TR fighters-- nevermind-- What a joke!

ok enough of your stories where u and floyd held hands ok lol but for once agree wit what u have to say NO catchweights for a Title and and yes let tony come in at 154 if he wants to yes u r right...but saying PAC is not a worrior then u r wrong cuz he has given us some of the best fights in this generation and the last one.. but yeah NO CATCHWEIGHTS FOR A TITLE NOT NOW NOT EVER!!!

no i'm not wrong. you just said he HAS given us some of the best fights ok. i'll agree if that makes you happy. but what does that have to do with now? for all i'm concerned he USED to be a warrior. And if he still wants to be considered a warrior then he needs to prove it. that's all. so what's wrong with what i just said?

[QUOTE=Rip Chudd;8899036]It's bad enough that it's cherry picking a title, throw the catchweight on there and it makes it even worse. Come on Pac, you're better then this.[/QUOTE]

No he isnt.
He already fought Cotto at a catchweight.
Already drained Morales to get revenge. And already fought a shot/old/drained version of Oscar.
Dont act as if this **** surprised you, because it certainly didnt surprise me.

If Pac was fighting a TRUE 154 fighter, then the haters & complainers would have a point. But he's fighting MARGACHEATO...a true 147 fighter, who fought 154 once! Sounds fair to me.

Why is anyone acting surprised?

[counterpunch]

poor bastards. Their in denial, their starting to realise Mannys not the fighter they thought he was.

Exactly, after that he can climb to Middleweight for 9th title division, fighting for 155 lbs. thats what the guy is talking about hahahahaha! THATS FAIR.

[Tweezy316]

Floyd 148 and Oscaar 167??? I doubt the weight advantage was that much.

you know it had to be a considerable gap between floyd and oscar. Did you not see the way oscar was manhandling floyd? Anyway I just brought that up to throw out the arguments of *******s claiming that these fighters are sooo much bigger than pac. cause floyd has had some considerable size disadvantages in a lot of his fights and he's still undefeated. jose louis castillo outweighed floyd by 9 lbs TWICE!!

I'm beyond sick of catchweights.

If a guy is to big for you to fight at his weight class, than stay the **** out of the weight class. What's the point of weight classes and belts anymore?

Oh it definitely didn't surprise me. Believe me I know Pac's history. When I said he's better than that I meant that he could beat Margs without the catchweight. You know Margs is tailor made for him.
