    i give pac all the credit in the world for beatin these guys, i'm just not a fan of title fights being fought at catchweights if ur gonna fight for the title, y look to have the advantage of making ur opponent work dat much harder to lose the weight, i believe he should've fought these guys at the weight limit the title belongs in, even if he feels it puts him at a disadvantage(even though i still believe he would beat these guys) it would make those victories that much sweeter for him becuz the common excuse (he was weight drained) wouldn't be acceptable

When I made this thread I should have went more deeper into it because my concerns were more about "why do people love to hate and discredit so much". This goes for fighters like Floyd, Williams, The klitchkos etcc who always get criticized instead of paid homage to.

        What most people don't understand though is that it's more healthy to appreciate and hate. Hating will always lead to bad things in life and doesn't reflect too good on your personality.
        I guess it's human nature. It's easier to discredit and find flaws than to give props. It's not just boxing though, it's like this in any sport.

          Skill's and a lot of other factors win fights not only skills. Power, heart, will to want to win etc... Can't take these things away from margarito. Just because someone doesn't have skills and good teqnique doesn't mean they're easy to fight.

          In my experience it's very hard to fight somebody that has good skills and movement though. Someone who dances circles and is hard too hit. If Pac and Mayweather fought it'll be a problem definitely for both fighters.

          I never understood the catchweights too. After the Delahoya fight it should have been clear that he belongs in that division with bigger men. I think roach used as an advantage over the other fighter both mentally and fisically though. There definitely shouldn't be any more catchweights int he future
