Can you duck a fighter who isn't even in your weight class?

[SNVDoublePunch!]

If the fighter can make the weight and wants the fight yes. Pacquiao is a 154 title holder, Martinez was a 154 fighter a few fights ago and can still make the weight.

You didn't vote, Blobby...

If your answer is yes to this question, you are ignorant, and college probably isn't for you.

[BattlingNelson]

It's not possible unless some extraordinary circumstances occur.

So wait, is Bute ducking Pascal, or not?

^^^^ Like Bute-Pascal.

[Steak]

technically you can....If the boxing world is REALLY calling for the fight, its usually for good reason. its your obligation to the fans and as a champion to fight the best available.

generally it depends on the weight differential though, of course. but in this day and age simply moving up a weight class is far from a huge deal.

You didn't vote, Blobby...

Because the poll options are pathetic.

Because the poll options are pathetic.

It's a simple yes or no, sweetheart. I'm sorry if it offends your delicate sensibilities.

[Malius]

If you and your coach believe that you cannot perform at your best at that wait no. Hatton could of technically fought as a HW on his off time if he wanted to.

If your lazy yes.

Co-sign here,if this is indeed about Pacman,there is no defense for him not fighting dangerous fighters that are (not top rank)promoted!!Pacman fought Margarito for a title in a division where Martinez was ranked absolutely no less than # 2 in,this is a fact!!Cotto went to 154 & beat a champion who the greater fighter in Pacman said was too big!!Great fighters shouldn't get a pass,that lesser fighters don't,that **** doesn't make sense!!"I'm so great I'll just go whoop up on a cheating stablemate right quick that 2 fights prior was beaten from pillar to post by Mosley,was caught cheating & beat a cabdriver in his return fight"!!If that's what great fighters do,I'll watch the not so great then!!

that was a one time thing like floyd at 154 like roy jones at HW. Did u really expect pac to stay at MW?? he ****in weighed 144 on a 150 catchweight he can't even reach 147. Wake the **** up.
