    But then again, he weighed in a couple of pounds under 147 if i remember right, so he probably wasnt cutting much water weight either - why bother cut more than u need.

    Probably just Ariza talking ****. He's been doing a lot of that on the 24/7 for this fight.
    I don't think they showed a fight night weight and if they did, I don't think Manny was that high. Makes no sense. But nothing out of these guy's mouths is ever straight.

      Manny normally walks around 150 max when slightly fat, but he doesn't lose much now because he turns it into muscle which is heavier and still can eat almost as much as he wants.
      If Manny walks around 150 max then when and (more importantly) why would he gain three extra pounds during training? I can understand eating to maintain weight but eating to add unnecessary weight that you then cut by a significant margin? Alrighty.

        hahahahahahahah!!!

        so if manny weighs in at 148, you guys think he should head back to the locker room, drink 3 glasses of milk and come back to get weighed again at 150 so that it'll be a fair fight for margarito??

        GTFO

            nope, there really shouldn't. i think the catchweight is ****** too. just an excuse to get another belt, really, it's all about building up the fight to the media.

            but we all know margo don't need the extra pounds. he's comfortable at 147, spent most of his career there, never had a problem making the weight. the extra pounds won't help either of them. whoever wins this fight is gonna win it cause he's better, period.

              Why is it bull**** if it's agreed upon by both sides? IT is a mutual contract...

                it's a weight limit, not a weight minimum

                  There is a weight LIMIT... Fighters should NOT EXCEED this limit... You are not breaking rules if you are under the limit. Mayweather exceeded the limit against Marquez therefore breaking the rules to gain advantage.

                    I know it's a 150 limit, but wer'nt they contracted to meet there?
                    They gave Floyd hell for not losing 2 pounds, cause the extra 2 pounds would have drained him.
                    Now Mannys not putting 2 pounds on, cause it will make him slow.
                    Aint this the same thing?

                    Or is it just me
                    Does anybody else think Cixthree is one of the dumbest Floyd fans along with Reload, Yesir, MIC, and footwork?

                    Or is it just me?
