    If you do then you'd realize that he simply couldn't. Let me leave it at that.
    so losses are excusable if you have a good enough reason?

      Only if you don't lie down after those losses and fight your way back up.

        Funny huh?
        I noticed his head back then, wasn't as big as it is now, and I don't mean figuratively, I mean literally. Its much bigger now and its not a coincidence.

        "hes on something".

                Are you a part of Floyd's PR team? In other news, Floyd's 10-year-old son ratted him out.

                  Wasn't this the last guy he fought before moving up in weight - he had trouble making weight, came in overweight. I'm not making excuses, if u can't make weight, move up....but to answer ur question - maybe Singsurat didn't want to move up in weight for a rematch...maybe the answer lies within Singsurat.
                  I just checked and it looks like Pac moved up after that loss and won the WBC International super bantamweight belt in the following bout, perhaps it was the more lucrative bout, more money, being back in the Philippines...rather than fighting in Thailand (Singsurat never fought anywhere else, except for Cambodia or Japan once or twice and once in the US late in his career, it may have made the difference - love Boxrec). But who knows?

                    thats a good one, I know they made him wear heavier gloves cuz of him being overweight, but i dk why he didn't rematch cuz he stayed in the weight division right?
                    hey why do u have some f*g in ur sig?

                      No, no excuse for that loss, what I'm saying is that he couldn't rematch at 112 no more. BTW, he already lost the title even before that fight. I don't have to explain to you everything, but if you want you can google it man.
