ITs not like Margarito has been a life long 154 pounder.

If you remember he weighed 145 for the Shane fight and was the welterweight champ. I think it is dumb the fight is at 150 but dont act like Margarito has been a 154 lb fighter his whole career. its not like he is asking Angulo or Sergio Martinez to come down to 150.

It has little to do with them simply fighting at jww at 150. It's everything else that matters. You are oversimplifying and diluting the real issues.

are you daft? seriously??? its not a case of 'PACS GETIN ADVANTAGES!!!!',

Its the case that at the end of the fight, Michael Buffer is going to say '...and NEW junior middle weight champion is...' when the fight is not at the limit of 154lbs, but rather 150lbs...

How much would you laugh if Buffer said accidentally or otherwise, "...and the NEW junior middle catchweight champion is...'?

Margarito has fought as a Jr Mid for a long time. I wish people stop making excuses for Pacman's demands. If you want to win a Jr Middleweight belt, fight and beat a Jr Middleweight. There's NO crying on Boxing! Come in at whatever weight you want, just don't ask the other guy to come in bellow the limits of the belt you seek.
So sick of this catchweight BS.
