    To make it fair they should do it at 140 IMO, Both can make that weight easy and fight night they should weigh about the same...

      What does that have to do with a fair boxing fight? Which JMM-Pac at 147 is not.
      Manny does want he wants, and you better not say anything about it!!!!!!!!!!

        I know you get it but are just trying to flame. If fighter A has more options, is the bigger name, and brings more to the table......fighter B has to meet him on his terms. Boxing has always worked like that.

        Lets say if negotiations come down to weight (which it wont). If Manny walks away he can easily get 15-25 million fighting Berto, Bradley, or someone else.

        Marquez walks away....he will never see anything over 3 million unless he fight Khan...and I highly doubt he even makes that. Not only is Manny he biggest payday by far, it's also the only fight at this point that will enhance his legacy. Judah, Morales, Guerrero or Rios does nothing for him, career rise, and at this point he needs Manny not the other way around. These are the fact...........deal with it.

          Since when has boxing been about being fair to your opponent. Come to a middleground on things when both guys bring a lot to table, but when some one is clearly carrying the event (Pacquiao), then the other guy (Marquez) has to agree to his terms.

              It would be monstrous if Pacquiao did go back down to 135 to fight Marquez. I know it won't happen, I couldn't possibly expect it, but man if it did. Really, that's the only way I would care.

                So, I'm presuming you were cool with the Mayweather-Marquez fight when that was signed, yes?

                Infact, considering your fine with boxing being unfair then I can only presume you are cool with the fight altogther.

                  I really didn't care about that fight. I mean I'm not a fan of Floyd and could care less what he does career wise. I joke from time to time on the net....but the truth is he could fight a baby monkey in his next bout and I would give two ****s.

                    Question: Is the TS's question so difficult that it can't be answered by a boxing fan with burner's experience with the use of memory and simple deduction?






                    Why do stars shine at night?

                      Ok, that's absolutely fine.

                      What I'm asking is; Does Floyd get credit from you for that fight just like Manny is going to?
