WTF are people crying about Pacquiao coming in below the weight limit. There is no such thing as coming in below the weight limit. LOL. He could come in as a flyweight if he wanted to. Henry Armstrong anyone? Ring a bell. Cry about Pacquiao giving up more advantages to Margarito.
Now, if Pacquiao is truly the Henry Armstrong of this generation, he would still KO Margarito.

so margarito will be the only one that will get the super welterweight belt since pacman came in under the welterweight limit.

Fortunately they've also said 150 appears to be comfortable for him

Actually he weighted 144 vs Cotto on fight night I read that he was 152, but those were rumors cause he didn't want to weight in on fight night...but I say he will be around 151-152 lbs on fight night and Cheato will be like 162-167 lbs...

and I'm not saying it hasn't been done before but it was corruption then and it's corruption now, just because it happened before doesn't mean it should be able to happen now with no problems, there should be some sort of penalty

And to those saying that it's illegal or some **** for Pacquiao to come in at 144, it's not. 154 is the maximum limit of the weight division, but it doesn't mean 147.1 is the minimum weigh in, it's just where the distinction between welterweight and Jr. middleweight is. Sam Langford, Stanley Ketchel, Henry Armstrong, were giving up more weight than 5 and weighing in a full division less than opponents.

To be honest it's like you are trying to hard to come up with a reason to discredit this fight.

I just hope they both step on the unofficial scale before the fight. Im guessing pac will weigh around 147-8 and Marg will weight around 159-60.
