"Jr middleweight is anywhere from 148-154lbs so its OK" the problem with that is...

[Allucard]

If Pacquiao wants a 154 title he should fight using the division rules, if he doesn't think he can win then he shouldn't be moving up. Pacquiao supposed to be the best P4P fighter so he should act like it instead of stacking the deck in his favour.

He's not the best p4p fighter and he never was. He has an HUGE flaw: He gets hit too easily. In order to make him look like something special, they have to match him up that carefully. They don't care what people might think.

Pacquiao just keeps growing and growing. If he didn't eat so much, he'd be a lightweight though.

Nothing solid will come out of this, i assure you. If anything, it will make people look at his other conquests and start wondering "what's going on here". 145 for a 147 tittle, 150 for a 154 tittle. Beating up old legends, drawing with Agapito Sanchez and getting beat by Morales and arguably Marquez, twice. Ducking harder competition and on top of that, as if it wasn't enough, he MAY be cheating through it all! That would absolutely KILL boxing.

its not a 147 title its a WW. not to exceed the weight of 147.

its not a 154 title. its JMW title. not to excees the weight of 154.

I think you got the #s wrong so I fixed it for you.

And is Tony compplaining about it? No! Seriously stop crying over spilled milk!

If you can show me any boxing rule book where it says that championship bouts "have to" be contested at the full weight limit and not at a catch weight then you have an argument. Otherwise it's just another case of a bitter Floyd stan being all sour g****s over Mannys accomplishments and making up their own requirements and rules to how Championship title bouts should be conducted.

Seriously man thats exactly what you are doing. Just making up **** as you go.

I'm trying to choke you right now. Let me know if you can feel it.

Of course it's not against the rules. No one said it was. I said it was cheap. Learn the difference. And I've always prefered Pacquiao to Mayweather. I'm allowed to criticize fighters I like. In fact, I'm usually harder on them because I want them to be legitimately great.

Ugh 150 pounds is within the junior middleweight weight class right? Isn't 175 pounds a full 25 pounds under the HW "minimum"?

Yeah I hope you see why your analogy is a complete and utter failure?

It was a joke. That should have been obvious.

[pistol whip]

If 4 pounds isnt important then WHY THE HELL DOES PAC KEEP "changing the rules"?
If Pac won heavyweight there would be a 180 lbs catchweight.

Imagine if when Roy Jones fought John Ruiz he mad a catchweight for Ruiz to drop weight...ridiculous.
Forget so called *****s debating this A BOXING FAN SAYS THIS CATCHWEIGHT STUFF IS DUMB! and anyone who backs it.
Commisions are already watering down our sport with a million belts why is Pac creating 2 million?

150 pounds wasn't considered a Junior Middleweight fight till this week? Seriously can I get a link to the rule in the rule book that states that all Junior middleweight fights have to have a weight limit of 154 pounds. Show it to me then I will agree with you 100% that Pac changed the rule. oh and roy only went up 4 weight classes from what he originally started at. Anology once again has no relevence in this conversation.

Not to mention Pac first 35 fights were mostly in Phillipines where he lost 2 by brutal ko Then next 12 fights loses again and gets two draws THEN AFTER FORTY SOMETHING FIGHTS HE PEAKS? Then starts KOing and beating guys at a heavier weight ? It raises eyebrows and if it dont then your simply dumb or a blind obsessed fan.

i think JMM was taggin floyd too.

not too mention that Floyd got hit with an overhand right that he shouldve seen coming by Shane.

Floyd ducked pac.

So suddenly eating a lot of food doesn't make you gain weight? Is this some anomaly that was just discovered by humanity? Who would of knew? Eating a lot of food over and over again everyday of your life will actually make you weigh more?


The hell you say!!!

Stop whining. Just keep defending your hero taking a second tuneup on PPV for a catchweight paper title.
