    I think Catchweight is total manipulation in boxing weight divisions. Choosing an opponent and demanding a catchweight limit is absolutely questionable. Manny's guerilla fighting style was perfect for Margarito advancing style...if Mayweather box like what Manny did, he'll be criticized. I dont see any differences on Margarito, Cotto, Clottey and Hatton's style they all advance forward fighters and blocked punches as defense, i think its time to see Manny fighting a different style of boxers. Berto would be nice at 154 lbs. w/o catchweight, Bradley at 147 lbs. would do, and offcourse Mayweather at any weight.

      154 is the LIMIT!!!

          Too bad Mayweather goes back on vacation after seeing the fight last night.

            The idiotic part of all the FLoyd d*ck riders is the fact that they don't realize Floyd's power comes from accuracy, he doesn't have the upper-body and arm strength to punch as hard straight on as Cotto or Margarito; his hands may not even be able to handle the volume of punches to necessary to take down Pac.

            Fact is every fkn Floyd~nuthugging dip**** doesn't understand that Floyd has always won on points and never is out there to "pound" an opponent. A 'bout at WW is the weight class naturally walks around in; he doesn't have to dehydrate and go on a diet. What will Floyd do against Manny? Counter? Okay sure he can do that but he doesn't take risks and he's not going to tear him down with volume punching.

            Floyd never took a fight with Margarito years ago and after the fight last night I can see why; if Margarito applied the same pressure to Floyd, he might've had a chance to KO him. Floyd won't fight Manny and will always toy around with mind games and what not. He can cough up whatever lame excuse he wants but at the end of the day they are excuses. Floyd Sr. is the only one bringing up the issue of drugs and half of the floyd nuthuggers are showing their ******ity just because they are listening to what a crackhead says. In a bout with Pac, Floyd doesn't have any answers to respond to Pac's offense and if vegas was sure about Floyd winning, they'd have put better odds on the matchup between the two but they didn't because the odd makers even know Floyd is the underdog in the bout.

              that fight was at 150 lbs. limit actually and Manny is at 144 lbs. weighing time, same weight he was when they demanded a catchweight of 145 lbs. against Cotto for a welterweight fight.

                If Floyd Jr decides to fight Pacman, then, he might end up Pretty boy no more!

                Pacman has displayed accurate solid punches with speed on the face of Margs!

                He did it not only to Margs but to:

                Oscar Dela Hoya and Cotto!

                Their faces tell all the story on how does it feel to fight Pacman!

                  that's the problem, pac agreed to all of floyds bull**** and he still won't fight. ur right, the ball has been in his court for a while now, he just doesn't have the nuttz to pick it up and do something with it. i hope he locates them soon cause his "legacy" can't handle too much more of this ****. would be a shame for a fighter with his skills to end his career as a laughing stock.
