how's this for commission rules eh *******s?

LOL not so fast.

This is contractual in nature, the first step before NSAC steps in on an irregularity.

[flint]

another slow ass fighter in front of manny to make him look really fast with a high volume punch rate with no jab. as soon as he gets in there with a real fighter his ass will be out.this is the reason pac won't fight bradley or mayweather.holt,and both peterson brothers were killin pac in sparring.

[NECK SNAPPER]

So what. Pac always makes the opponent come in weak.
Maybe this time he'll bit off more than he can chew.
I wonder what freddy is going to say when somebody ko's
little pac.

Floyd is miles bigger than Pacquiao.

You guys make Manny is still a flyweight. The dude is bigger than he is made out to be. Check the fight night weights when he was at 130.

edit: And this fight is even wacker since it will be at a catchweight.

I'm sick of these bull**** catchweights with him, be a man and fight at the damn weight your supposed to be fighting at!

According to Inquirer.net, the 31-year-old Pacquiao will be fighting Margarito at a “catch weight not exceeding 150 pounds.”
Well, let’s do the math. If the junior middleweight upper limit for the division is 154, then Pacquiao will be fighting at four pounds under the limit, and only three pounds above the 147 pound welterweight limit.
It's closer to a damn welterweight match then a light middleweight fight,
The vacant title should not be aloud put on the line!

How can Pacquiao feel good about not fighting at the full weight for the division? I don’t understand that at all. If he wins the fight, he doesn't deserve the title.
I can understand a catch weight if there’s a wide gulf between two fighters, but I don’t think a catch weight should ever involve a title.
It's wrong to have two fighters at a catchweight for a title.

Margarito hasn’t looked like the same fighter he used to be in his past two fights, and I don’t see how a catch weight is really even needed to beat him.
Why is Pacquaio be a god damn ***** looking for these damn catchweights?
He’s slow as molasses, doesn’t use his long reach, has no defense, comes straight at his opponents, and throws wide shots in close. Margarito is the perfect victim for Pacquiao. So why would a catch weight be needed when you got a fighter that is so tailor made for Pacquiao, and who appears to be fading fast in terms of his fighting ability.

Yeah your right its a complete joke -

I don't know. pac just seems like a hypocrite. he always has all these stipulations or demands but if someone else does then he says i will fight under the rules of the commission. he just sounds like a *****

What little interest I had in this fight has just gone out the window.
