Not asking for catchweight is ridiculous

[The Big Dunn]

He wanted Mayweather and that little slag punked out so he move on. Don't even mention Bradley or Berto as being possible opponents!!!

Wait a minute! When floyd fans say this about marg and cotto in 2005 pac fans take great offense. You can't have it both ways!

pacquito wants none of mayweather that lil chicken **** is scared of Money May ;D pacquito is scared of everyone who could pose the slightest threat

[Chuckguy]

I just realize this whole fight is ridiculous.. it is so mismatch than ODLH vs Pacquiao..
Margarito is 5'11 he is a giant compare to Pacquiao.. remember how Pacquiao wanted to fight Margarito we all think "no way.. this fight isn't happening.. Margarito is too big"? Pacquiao is requesting to fight in a catch weight and now everyone seems to against it.. I mean c'mon the fight should not been taken place to begin with.. and you thought ODLH was bad.. Margarito is alot taller than him...
Im sick and tired of ppl here bashing Pacquiao about catch weight.. This fight should at the very LEAST fight in a catch-weight..

Ok Ill give you the catch weight but then why not fight at 150 just for ****s and giggles
why for the belt?
cause its a fooken sham
Pac is a fraud and is now being exposed

Then you should be allowed to fight at 154.

It would be like challenging Usain Bolt to 100 meter sprint, but first to 65 meter mark wins. It defeats the purpose of calling it a 100 meter race

haha, awesome post. will send green k when i reup

Though I like your comparison, I think it would be more like a Sprinter challenging a Marathoner to a short distance race and then claiming to be a champion Marathoner. It just don't work like that.

If you're not big enough to fight for the 154lb title... then don't fight for it.

[Mushroom]

Don't try and justify this catchweight bull****.

If Pac steps up to the JMW division, he should be fighting guys that weigh-in within the 154 limit. Otherwise his little paper belt means ****.

' Oh but Margarito is huge compared to him '.

Duhh, no ****. That's the whole point and the reason why it's a hard thing to do, because you go up against guys much bigger than you. Where's the fun if the other fighter has to fight at a catchweight to make things ' fair '.

On top of that he's fighting Margarito, who isn't even the best at 154.

Exactly...........

There's no such thing as a 154lb title. Its called a JMW title, and that falls anywhere between 148-154lbs.

This is true, between 148-154. You shouldn't challenge for a title at that weight if the only way you'll fight is with a limit between 148-150.

short and clear

So why can't margo weight in at 154 for the 147.1 - 154 title bout?

It isn't the 147.1 - 150 title bout.


(and why is Manny getting a shot at a vacant 154 title when he has never fought ar JrMW?)
