    Why can't JMM/Pac III be made like this....

    Roach says that Manny won't fight below 147lbs right? Marquez says that he will go to whatever weight to fight Manny right?

    So why not just let Marquez weigh in at whatever he wants or where he feels most effective at (weigh in 135-137lbs re-hydrate to 145-146lbs) and let Manny weigh in at 144-145lbs and re-hydrate to 148lbs...

    Probably not as easy to execcute as it sounds....but in theory...both would be coming in well under the 147lbs "limit" that Team Pac wants and both would be re-hydrated back to optimum weight come fight night....

    Yay or Nay?

    Yay.

    even if roach stipulates 147, manny doesnt even come close to it anyway. so both of them can come in whatever weight they want. but this fight is a deathwish for jmm i think. pac's punches are much much stronger than what he felt at LW.

                Goes back again to why not just let Marquez cut to whatever weight he feels comfortable at (135-136lbs) and let Manny cut to 144.6lbs.....and they'll both be fine come fight night right?

                I honestly don't see why this would be a problem....JMM says he'll fight Manny at any weight....translation "144lbs max"....Bob says that it won't be anywhere below "147lbs".....fine...JMM will do what Manny did against Margarito which is weigh substantially less than the contracted weight....and Manny will come in at 144lbs...(138lbs for Hatton, 142lbs for DLH, 144lbs for Cotto) and all will be good....JMM will get his payday and get in some good rounds to remind us as to why he gave a 1 dimensional Manny hell....

                  Dude. Any fight is like that. You don't have to weigh 147 to fight at 147. A bantamweight can fight at 147 if he wants to. 147 is the MAXIMUM weight.
