[LeadUppercut]

That 8th title isn't worthy of wiping my ass with. Shouldn't cheat history and fool gullible fans......disgusting.

100% correct.

Alright, you've obviously never seen a shredded person if you seriously think that Sergio can't drop 7pounds more.

You didn't answer my question; why has he only talked about fighting Manny, Floyd and Cotto?

Boxing is about many things, but Pacquiao is so far and beyond Martinez in terms of legacy it's not even debateable. It's like comparing Bill Gates to an average Joe in a third world country in terms of wealth. If you honestly think that Manny only fought weaklings it's sad. Goodbye *****.

Sure, he could probably cut weight and get down to 147 but he wouldn't be at a good weight for himself so why would he do that? Why would he put himself at such a disadvantage fighting the best p4p fighter in the world, who just "won" a JMW title? Martinez said he could get down from MW and if Manny didn't want to fight him at 154 then that was fine. You have to draw the line somewhere as far as going up in weight.

The reason he's talking about Manny, Floyd and Cotto is because they are the biggest possible names he could fight. When a fighter finally gets in a position to get big money fights, they go for it. As a Pacquiao fan, you should know this.

one word............Joke !!

naw..3 words.... Joke Coach Roach

[Bring It On]

Manny is a joke, and so is his legacy.

This sums your post up pretty good. No need to continue really.

[WESS]

but how do you weightdrain a 147 lbser at 150 lbs? explain that.

You can't argue that. There is nothing to argue about. Who ever is telling you that Margarito was "weight drained" is an idiot. Margarito was "picked" to fight at 150 to represent a JMW.

He was "selected" to fight at the weight class and weight that would suit Pac. There was no weight draining for this fight. Just "cherry picking" to get a title at 154.

How about Sergio grows a pair and stops going after small WWs? Just an idea. Who has he called out that isn't smaller then himself?

Manny has no business fighting over 147.

The irony.....
he can fight for belts above 147lbs but he cant weigh over 147lbs?

You didn't answer my question; why has he only talked about fighting Manny, Floyd and Cotto?

Maybe because they're the biggest names in boxing, and will yield him the biggest paydays? The man is 35 years old, he's looking for the biggest money fights, because he has a small window to continue to fight at a high level. He doesn't want to end up like Shane Mosley, damn near 40 years old and looking to secure a retirement fund...

Sergio can't make 147lbs, and Manny shouldn't fight about 147lbs. This fight is impossible to make.

At what weight was the Margarito fight?

[mrjoeblive]

147lbs or no go! no unfair advantage!!

pac has the 154lb strap. how is it unfair for him to fight a REAL fighter as opposed to a slow no defense margarito? if he is greater than the atgs he should prove it vs real fighters not just the ones he picked to look good. and his cherry picking is starting to catch up to him and he is starting to look bad.
