    150 is very reasonable, I would have made it 147.5

    This isn't a mandatory fight for the LMW title so if Magarito don't like the terms he knows what he can do.

        Margarito used plastered hands, so that is cool!

        Oscar is a ***** for not fighting Hopkins at 160. Are you saying Manny is a *****?

        If you think a small man asking for a catchweight against a bigger man is a ***** , you're flat out ******.
        148-154 is the Junior Middleweight Class. 150 is still Junior Middleweight.
        Margarito won't have any problem making weight.

        You wanna what a ***** is? Is when Welterweight makes an old lightweight fight a catchweight of 145 ,then cheats him by coming in at 147.

        That is a *****. His name is Floyd Mayweather Jr.

          Even at a limit of 147, maybe Cotto would won 1-2 more rounds then 8-12 would be the rounds 6-12 on the actual fight(hope you get what i mean).

            the most sensible thing i've read is to have the fight at 147 for manny's belt. looking at it with the integrity of the sport in mind this paper belt business is awful. the only reason its happening is cuz the wbc wants the sanctioning fees for a big money fight and bob arum wants to use another "title" as a promotional tool. its meaningless otherwise. if marg had the belt and agreed to a catch weight fight...that would be a different story...but basically they are manufacturing a jmw title fight as close to ww as possible. its pathetic they think fans are that ******. i hear it from ex-boxing fans all the time..."theres too many belts, you never know who the real champion is." i don't care who i'm a fan of...i'm not down with **** that makes people walk away from the sport.

              149 is reported on his last fight, so that is Pac's heaviest fight night weight. Oh wait, you have to ask Jinkee about his fight night against her.

                  I agree with other members in here is that the most sensible/reasonable thing is the fight should be at 147. But the one pushing this thing in my opinion is Arum, Konz, and other Pac's advisers. With Arum, he wants to be known to have a boxer to win 8 titles, legacy for him, more bling bling for him.

                    Last time I checked 150 lies in the jr mw division. Haters gonna hate!

                    But seriously, I'm a ******* but I don't think it should be for a belt.

                    But at least he's thinking about boxing though. Good for you pac, stay active and treat your fans to another fight.
