there are no minimum weight limits, there are only maximum weight limits...

OK so I think we're finally agreeing in something , my problem wit Pacquiao weighin in at 144.6lbs is that he's fighting for the Jr. Mid title, if this fight wasn't for a title then I wouldn't ***** about the weights cuz both came in under 154

we are saying 2 completely different things.

as long as you are under the maximum weight limit, you fight for the title weighing as low as you want, to your own detriment.

what I don't like, and it's no fault of marg's or pac's, is that the WBC would allow the 154 lbs strap to be on the line, when marg and pac have done absolutely nothing at 154 lbs to put this fight in contention for the vacant title.

of course. we are the rare posters on this board that actually know a damn thing about this sport we love. we are true boxing fans, not some nuthuggers like some of these other fakers.

just because you see **** different don't mean you know more Boxing than those who don't see it like you, the fact that you made a thread about this shows idiocy as is because you know damn well you could have just replied to me you just want to go off indirectly and that's a ***** move

Is'nt it funnt that, when Manny does something it's ok. But if someone else does it, it's not rite?
I agree with the weight thing, but it's all one sided. If Maeg had said no to 150, he'd have lost that pay day. If he'd asked Manny to make 150, he'd have lost the pay day and he knew all of this.

It is what it is, but stop acting like this is not BS.
a 143 vs 150 for 154 vacant belt? Tell me that sounds rite...

It will make 8 titles though ,,,,, all Arum is doing is building Pacs numbers to squeeze Floyd on the cut , and cashing in all the way ,,,, they have played the weight game with Manny brilliantly ,,, there are a lot of WT holders struggling to make the division limit , if you can get to catch weight them smaller it hurts them alot , and so the snowball builds ,,, he is being matched fantasicly in business terms , a master piece , untill he steps in with Floyd .

The catchweight is to eliminate the advantage of being bigger... Pac don't give advantages...
The problem aint with Pac, it's with the bendy twisty rules being changed to cheat history

how is pac giving margarito (a guy who spent the majority of his career at welterweight) 3 lbs to play with not giving margarito an advantage???!!! it's a ****en gift.

gawddamn the ignorance on these boards!!!!

[Pullcounter]

It may not be an explicit rule, but given that the weight classes are so specific I think its more or less implied.

that is some straight up bull***** you just said right there. if it aint in the rule book, it ain't a rule. sorry hombre.

It just makes a mockery of the sport when a guy asks for a catchweight in every fight and uses his sick trainer or the fact that he is "small" to invoke sympathy from everyone.

gawddamn the ignorance!!!

PAC HAS HAD ON 2 CATCHWEIGHT FIGHTS!!! TWO!!!!

Roach can talk endless ****, but if you talk back, you have to apologize.

this got nothing to do with this thread at all.

Pac could have catchweight after catchweight and claim he's the GOAT and we all have to stand by and nod our heads.

2 MUTHA****IN CATCHWEIGHT FIGHTS! TWO!!! hopkins has more catchweight fights than pac dumb asss.

People need to stop trying to make up rules

so if Manny said "**** it" and decided to fight a light heavyweight for his title(s) you're telling me that would be okay simply because Manny didn't exceed 175? you're an imbecile..

there IS a problem with this situation it's just not as big of a problem as I made it in the other thread and how you're making it now, this shouldn't even be a topic you literally just made a thread based off my conversation in the other thread

no dummy. mayweather jr can fight pwill or martinez for the middlweight title and if he only weighs 147 lbs, that is perfectly ok.

I agree with the weight thing, but it's all one sided. If Maeg had said no to 150, he'd have lost that pay day. If he'd asked Manny to make 150, he'd have lost the pay day and he knew all of this.

I dunno why idiots keep tripping about 150 lbs. pac giving margarito an extra 3 pounds is a ****en gift.

a 143 vs 150 for 154 vacant belt? Tell me that sounds rite...

it's the mutha****in rules dummy.

there have always been catchweights in boxing.

there is no minimum weight limit.

ITS THE ****IN RULES!!!!

my gawd!!! the ignorance!!! learn some mutha****en boxing.
