When was the last time PAC fought an...

[pistol whip]

Opponent not coming off a loss near his prime and not at a catchweight. someone that was a good challenge not a Diaz. A fighter coming in hot on a string of wins?

My question to the TS is could you please name which fighters would have been acceptable for pac to have been fighting?

I would of loved to see him fight 03/04 Acelino Freitas, who was doing great at the time, Zahir Raheem,04/05 Jose Luis Castillo, Diego Corrales @ 135 in 04 would have been great. all within his weight range.

He could have fought everyone he fought at their weight. Not at a catchweight. Also to say he was fighting fighters much bigger I think thats awesome. Go up to the weight class they are currently in not drain them. Nobody was fighting to beat pac they were fighting for the pay day. I understand its impossible to catch two fighters in their prime but JMM,Soto,Cotto with no catchweight to many to list would have been good fights. Everything has been a walk in the park for PAC since ODLH.

Why does it matter only for Pac and not for any other boxers especially Floyd. Lets see, JMM vs Floyd was a catch weight, Mosley was 39 vs Floyd and certainly not his prime, DLH certainly wasn't in his prime vs Floyd either, and Judah came from a loss vs Baldomir right before fighting Floyd. If you can defend Floyd, then i'm sure you can do the same for Manny. Done with this guy.

Out of the 3 options Pac has to fight right now, Berto seems to be the only one who "qualifies", yet no one hear gives him a shot and has Berto losing to Mosley lol, so what's the point?

WTF so you wanted him to fight B+ and B- fighters instead?

Oh I see fight guys that would have outweighted him by 20 pounds instead of 10-15 pounds on fight night.


Whats next "oh everyone he fights from now on gets to have a sword".


What other disadvantages would you like Pac to have? Perhaps he can have a handicap match!!!


Margarito and Cotto can Team up against him as a tag team!!!

i dont understand this catchweight king stuff. Oscar cherry picked pac and chose the weight. And every other fighter outweighed him by 10 to 15 pounds. whats worst is asking a lightweight to move up and not agreeing to the contracted weight. Thats far worst in my opinion, but you know how it goes.

First of all, DLH called out Pac and came up with the catch weight for their fight. Against Cotto, Cotto was 145lbs, down from 146lbs vs Marg and most of his other fights, even Cotto himself admitted that 145lbs was his normal weight during weigh ins. Marg has fought at 147lbs many times way before Manny, so going down to 150lbs shouldn't have been a problem and he wasn't "weight drained", considering that at fight night he was 165lbs vs Manny at 148lbs. Furthermore, as i have posted in my last post, Floyd had done the same thing.
