Martinez is almost the EXACT same size as Margarito.

Duckquiao is nothing but a catch weight king who's fighting weight drained fighters.

For me that man has no class what so ever..I have more respect for JMM who stayed clean and stayed in his division where he belongs..pac made a runner from that division the beatings he received were just too much.

brother man why u mad?

[B.U.R.N.E.R]

What is he? Pac fans will say, at their convenience that he is: A) a Lightweight
B) a Junior WW
C) a WW
D) The Fist of God

Exactly.


I couldve swore he was a light weight right after he beat Marg. Now hes back up to WW...lol.

[AKATheMack]

dude why is it ok for manny to fight to fight margo at 150 but wants martinez under 150?

Hes a WW you douche. How dare a WW want the fight at WW. No catchweights right? so he should fight Martinez at 160?

[Bring It On]

pac did say under 150

If he did, well, it doesn't matter. Because Sergio isn't going any lower then 155.

And today, ABS CBN news.com have a short interview article with Pacquiao, in which the fighter-congressman speaks about who he would like to fight next, in 2011. And guess what? Manny said he IS willing to fight Martinez, the very fighter many fans wholeheartedly dismissed as a future foe for the Filipino legend.

Pacquiao, when asked who he’d fight next, after taking that well earned six month break he spoke about previously, said he’d fight “anyone,” including Martinez. There is, however, a catch: Pac-Man said that if a fight between he and Martinez did happen, it would have to be fought at under 150-pounds. Pacquiao fought and defeated Margarito at a catch-weight of 150-pounds (Margarito, by the way is even taller than Martinez, by a full inch), and he says he would be willing to do pretty much the same with the reigning middleweight champ.

Dude youre way smarter thant this.

Since he last fought JMM.

He has refused to fight a prime guy with some damn elite boxing skills.

Cotto: Nope
Clottey: Nope
Margarito: Nope
Hatton: Nope
DLH: Nope
Diaz: Nope

Gimme a break man. Manny is fighting guys that will come right at him that he can easily slice up.

Who at 147 should he have fought instead? Cottos boxing skills at 147> anybody not named Floyd Mayweather.

i bet he would thats why its called negotiations you dont show all your cards until you have to

[madsweeney]

And he weighed 168 on fight night. Margarito was 167.

So this is just about cherry picking Pac knowing that Martinez isnt some slow, flat footed face first brawler he can just dart in and out on.

Like I been saying it has nothing to do wth color. Its about style. Manny ducks certain styles.

He wants nothing to do with Martinez unless hes drained. Disgrace.

If he's the same size as Tony, he should have no problem making 150 either. 150 lets get it on!

[Dirk Diggler UK]

Exactly.


I couldve swore he was a light weight right after he beat Marg. Now hes back up to WW...lol.

I couldve sworn Paul Williams was the new middleweight champ....



Now hes back down to WW
