What other reason is there? Williams had a reason for the catchweight

Hear come the excuses. Man just grow a pair.

he'll lose 10lbs easily in the first week of training. the other 20 will fall off by fight night. p will is the one whose shocking. ppl look at martinez and are shocked but its really not that bad. he's where he should be. the bigger u are, the easier it is to lose weight.

He's been training for 4 weeks already which makes you wonder if he not training hard or is walk around weight was 190+.

So why do you think Williams' people demanded a catchweight when it is obvious that Paul is still very fit at 160? I mean they are fighting for the middleweight title. It's no mystery why Pacquaio wants a catchweight. So why did Williams?

williams excuse was that he was too low in weight because he was moving down to 147. take it for what u want, but it is a pretty legit excuse even tho i blame williams for movig to a weight where he should have knwn no1 would fight him.

this dont look good for sergio. alot of weight to cut unless this is normal for him. and even if this is normal its not healthy. he's also 35, sometimes it harder to cut weight as u get older

That might be dangerous as hell. He shouldnt waited this late. His stamina is shyt as it is.

Not true hes got good stamina(obviously not on par with a pwill) he does get a bit tired in fights its because he uses so much movement, its similar to Dirrell, he got tired at the end of the AA fight but it wasnt bad stamina just to do with the large amount of stamina it takes for a fighter to do what he does for 12 rounds.

Anyone know what Sergio's usual weight cutting schedule is? 20 lbs in 30 days seems like a bit much, especially considering he's 35 years old...

Paul is basically ready to go weight-wise.

there are training regimes u kno??? maybe he was focusing on muscle growth as opposed to weight loss/cardio. i dunno...but i doubt martinez; team would **** up that badly. he's always been in good shape.

Theres like a million threads on this. Its because Paul was training to get to 147 Pounds. Hes been eating and training and is now at a healthy 162.

He also wants to give off the illusion that he can fight at the lower weights. I mean jsut 2 days ago he said hed go to 147 for Floyd or Pac.

Martinez needs to be bustin his ass. Period. 20 pounds heavy 4 weeks away is just being lazy. All the photo ops, interviews and tours, hype have gotten to his head.

If Martinez thought getting to 157 would be this grand problem. he wouldve demanded that the fight be at 160. I dont want to hear excuses. NO ONE saw this coming. No one.
