Comments Thread For: Pacquiao-Mosley Possible at 148, For WBC 154 Title

[eltoro]

It's not the ***ing 154 pound title it's the junior middleweight title! Just because you word things diffrently doesn't change the fact that the division itself is from 148pounds-154pounds.

When you hear Junior Middleweight Title you know the weight limit or 154 vice versa etc., I could have easily written Junior Middleweight Title but my lazy ass fingers didn't wanna type that much so 154 pound made it easier for me. So its ok to say Pac beat Mosley for the Junior Middleweight Title But at the catchweight of 148lbs not at the division limit which is at 154lbs. Many of his followers don't understand the weight limits that are in relation with the titles since they are not full boxing fans and argue hes the best for going up in weight to another division but don't understand how lame it gets after a while not allowing the other fighter to come in at the division limit. Yea its not his fault the other guy wants a big payday but why do a catchweight knowing you can't beat the guy at his division limit and stay in your own damn division and defend or unify your title.

lol, there isnt a pac thread made without the words 'floyd' or 'mayweather' being mentioned

Can't let lord Manny take the heat alone.

[CrackYourJaw]

You have to be kidding me.

This is absolutely ridiculous. He shouldn't be fighting Mosley in the first place.

[brick wall]

But who perpetuated this nonsense! Seriously all I have ever asked for is an explaination as to "why" a catchweight is bad. And all I ever get is "because the max limit is 154". And??????????????? Thats not a ***ing explaination!

the 148 catchweight is bad for boxing. there have been catchweight title fights before but those were only off by 1 or 2 pounds...6 pounds off is bull****. and what for really? pac has a 147 title why not just defend it? why defend a 154 paper title when obviously he's too small for it?

as far as shane is concerned...fighting at 148 will work to his advantage than at 147. still this matchup is ****.

Another catch-weight fight huh?

[pistol whip]

dude how does mayweather even factor in here????? its not about the catchweights at all its about pacs opposition! the guy is deemed the best but fights nothing but washed -up ex-champions coming off of bruatl,brutal ko defeats.and on top of that asks for a catchweight! if hes soo good why does he face guys like that exclusivley ?why only sloppy 3rds and 2nds??? why not berto? or martinez, or jmm or somebody thats actually winning not losing?? its sickening to watch. theres plenty to knock on pac for, like agreeing to all the ridiculous fights. again even delahoya was a more legit champion than this clown. pacman is a self obsessed-weasel clown. martinez too big(margs bigger) berto nobody knows him( like anybody knew clottey) jmm ( nobody wants to see that fight_) oh yes we do!, mayweather ( oh no drug tests please im afraid of needles) all we get is sorry excuses from pac and his whole team as to why he wont face top opposition, and ridiculous justifications to face dudes that have zero chance at winning and moreover nobody wants too see him fight.his last 5 fights were total ripoffs and garbage!!! here we go again!

I'll give you Mosely it's a terriable fight but everyone else pac has fought it's the same story. The fighter is "conviniently" washed up after they lose to pac, it's the same argument i've been hearing since he beat marco Antonio barrera the first time and it holds little water when before the fight nobody was calling the guy washed up to begin with.

But to address the other fights OSDT is unpresedented in the sport of boxing why does Pac get held to a higher standard above all other fighters when it comes to drug testing? mayweather SR is hardley a reason.

Martinez cant go under 155 pounds, the man said it himself on HBO and come on man you seriously didn't think Pac was gonna continue to go up and up in weight did you? So if hypothetically he beats martinez whats next? Are you gonna say he's ducking Bute?

He fought Marquez twice already and as much as i wanna see third fight with my boy marquez Im not gonna say pac is ducking him when they fought twice already. Makes no ***ing sense and for berto it's ***ing true nobody knows him and you tend to forget that clotty was a last minute throw him in there fight because the fight they really wanted (Floyd) fell apart. Top Rank had a date reserved they needed the fight on that day and who easier than clotty to get a legitimate top 5 welterweight in their with Pac with only a month and a half to promote the thing.


It's real easy to make an argument against pac when you forget all the details!

*** ... Sulaiman "peeleft: WBC "peeleft: Arum"peeleft: Worthless Belts "peeleft: they are ruining Pacs legacy

[sapo#1]

Boxing is my favorite sport but this kinda **** is destroying it!!!!

Why is it bad for boxing and why is 6 pounds bullcrap if everyone agrees and everyone makes weight? Like I said the "division" is 148-154 so whats the big deal? nobody said that title bouts "have to" be held with the full weight limit in effect.
