Comments Thread For: Arum: Pacquiao vs Marquez Will Be at 147 or No Fight

[GRUSTLER]

Did you hear how Bob Arum described catchweights? "STARVIN".
I remember Manny "STARVIN" Cotto and Margarito. Margarito had
to use some BS drink to make weight. Like I said, everything will
be revealed in due time. Arum sounds aggressive and angry when
it comes to Marquez. Comes off as worrying and or stressing a lil.
Arum does not want to make the fight happen at all. Looks like
Mosley got his big shot. May even turn out to be the next Hatton.
Beat up by Floyd and Pac. Mosley was a great fighter in his prime
but could have been greater if he made smarter decisions in certain
aspects of his career.

Arum is so full of it. I guess catchweights only when it benefits Pac. Looks like Clottey was the only one that got the fair deal out of the wieght issue

I have a feeling that pursue split will be an issue as OST is If/when negotiation take place for Floyd and Manny.

At this point, Manny Pacquaio could claim that the poor Filipinos are a strain on their economy and order all of them to be executed on via the firing line. And the boxing media and fans would excuse it, citing that it is Floyd Mayweather's fault.

[The Evil 1-2]

WBA/WBO lightweight champion Juan Manuel Marquez is pushing very hard for a third fight with Manny Pacquiao. The three division champion from Mexico would like the fight to take place at a max catch-weight of 144-pounds. Top Rank CEO Bob Arum, who promotes Pacquiao, is not going to budge on the weight. Arum, along with Pacquiao's trainer Freddie Roach, are taking a hard line with Pacquiao's next fight taking place at the full welterweight limit of 147-pounds.

Now they want to fight at the true welterweight limit??? Really laughable. Cotto must be thinking WTF?

I guess Arum showed Mayweather how to quack and he's teaching it to PAC now

Floyd is p4p king he really dont need to prove anything after the little video ive seen.....but the regular boxing fan not the hardcore fans like ourselves wouldnt understand...becuz they only watch mainstream fights the dont read between the line.

[DigitalBeast]

So..Marquez simply wouldn't have to dehydrate himself for the weigh-in, it appears...

Agree to this "147" and get it on!
