Why does weight of 140/147 matter for Pacquiao/Marquez?

[scap]

thats what im asking, you have a answer?

What makes you think PAC can make 135 without seriously hurting his performance in the ring? What-because some crazy PAC fans say making 140 is easy? What do they know what is easy and what is not for Manny at this point?

5 pounds is huge-ask Diego Corrales and JL Castillo what the big deal over a few pounds is.

Pacquiao weighed in 144.6lb for the Margarito fight. He was on heavy calorie shakes to keep weight on, etc. We can safely assume Pacquiao makes 140lb easy.

What's being talked about is 140lb and 147lb
Majority of the Pac-haters were saying they want to see the fight at 140lb. I simply provided some info on why it doesn't matter.

it matters because the fight is not only about manny what about the other man in this equation? do u think marquez rather the fight be at 140 or 147?

I think he makes 140 as well-it is most likely his most dominating weight....135...that is a completely different thing to ask.

Who would he be making 135 for...Marquez? That would be crazy.

Why doesn't Marquez come in light? I mean he can come in 140 Fight. Now matter what weight they fight at, Manny is gonna be 148 on the day of the fight...so what does it matter.

FWIW....I don't want to see this fight as it's a waste of everyones time. I expect a TKO stoppage within 5 rounds, with the possibilty of Manny one punch KO'ing Marquez' old @ss.

it matters b/c we all seen the difference in JMM at 147 and 140

What I'm saying is, it DOESN'T matter if the weight is 140lb or 147lb, Manny will still be 146-148 come fight night. I'm pretty sure this is why JMM doesn't care if the fight is at 147lb.. jeez

The people that are saying 147lb is BS... they're idiots with low IQ because JMM doesn't have to come in at 147lbs.

Bump. Some education

Correct me if I'm wrong.

No matter which weight they fight at, 140 or 147, Pacquiao would Still weigh the same on fight night. If the fight is at 140lb, Pacquiao will just rehydrate to a comfortable weight easily. (Obviously Pacquiao can make 140lb easy)

JMM DOESN'T have to come in @ 147lb, right?

So I really don't see why some peeps are making a big deal out of this.

for the same reason that people said it mattered in mayweather-hatton.
