Manny Pacquiao is a disgrace to this sport....

[XionComrade]

The dude has a point, this isnt a video game, people's life is at stake. Theres a weight class for a reason, and that is to prevent missmatch like this to happen, to mitigate the risk of having the little guy battered that shiet out him during the fight night.

I just hope the boxing committee should reconsider their rules and regulation, this might be the fight that will do it- if pacquiao gets battered to a pulp.

Yes but look at it this way, the corner, ref, and fighters can stop the fight at any time, so it doesn't matter as far as safety is concerned. What is MORE dangerous is a fighter killing himself to drop weight, look at Corrales-Castillio 2, Corrales works his ****in ass off to make weight and is just destroyed fight night, Castillio doesn't even try(The **** head) and is 10x fresher.

A knockout/crushing puncher is still a knockout puncher regardless of 10lbs, Pacquiao can still KTFO Margarcheeto imho, being 10lbs heavier than Pacquiao isn't going to make those punches feel any better.

I dont care about what people on here complain about. All I want to know was if Ray Robinson had to cut weight instead of coming in at the weight limit of their bout.

If Manny doesn't wanna put on weight cause he thinks it'll slow him down, cool. But why make Margs cut 4 extra pounds and lose possible power? That's my beef with this.

And for the record, I want Manny to win, I just don't like how this fight is actually gonna go down in history as a championship fight

i agree...but come on its pointless. Media wont care, nor should they. Leave the *****ing to the hardcore boxing nuts

It's already bull**** that he's making a 154 title fight a 150 lb fight. He makes it looks much worse by weighin in 144.

If your telling me that when you found out that he weighed in at 144.6 you didn't even cringe a little?

Im a huge pac fan remember that, but when something is wrong you gotta call it out.

Why didnt he just make it a WW fight?

Make it a WW fight? How many threads were made that Marg would have been drained at 150 now you talking about 147? How many posters right now are saying that Marg looks weak at 150 and you're talking about 147.

If it is the catch-weight that is bothering you I can see, if it is the vacant title on the line I can see. And, it is bullshit.

However, weighing 144, under the limit is not bullshit man.

I don't care who you're a fan of or not, you don't have to keep saying. However, saying Pac weighing at 144 is bullshit is plain idiotic.

[-Super-]

Because the title organization wants to get a piece of the action that this fight will make. It's as simple as that. The fight would go on regardless of the title being on the line or not.

Aside from the fact that Margarito shouldn't be getting such a big payday in the first place, I would have no problem with it going on if it wasn't for a world title. The fact that it is for a title makes both Pacquiao and the fight a joke.

Epic troll thread. Successful troll is successful

Just realise that the TS is an ALT...Way to go getting points off Pac fans i guess (Baiting them in)

[Bastian Loc]

Pac fans are ******s.

Did you make one like this when Mayweather cheated JMM on the scales?

you are complaining about the catchweight then, not the "minimum weight" issue. the ts was complaining mostly about pac's weigh in, not marg's... in other words, you're whining at the wrong thread.

Did you make one when your hero beat Cotto with bricks?

The joke is on the title organizations, who are selling themselves out to add a little prestige to what is already a big fight on its own.

If they had any kind of pull, they could just say that Pacquiao can't fight for a title while forcing his opponent to come in at 150. But that's how it goes nowadays.

[mikelovesfood]

Exactly right,

really like WTF is wrong with these people?

Yea so why not just let pacquiao fight andre ward for his SMW title at a contracted weight of idk....154! Or even 160.

No matter how you spin its still WRONG! He can't challenge people in the respected weight classes if he can't even make the correct weight.

Hell let Donaire go for the WW title.

This isnt' UFC 1 where weight divisions didnt matter!

God why are you guys so thick headed about this subject.
