    so as a boxing fan which would you rather prefer to watch irregardless of the weight class?

    JMM vs Mayweather or JMM vs Pacquiao?

      Pac's basically been doing that coming in at whatever best weight he has to keep all his attributes.
      Pac came in 6lbs below the agreed weight against Margarito.
      @145, JMM can come in at 139 and keep his attributes from lightweight.

Pac's been fighting dudes on average 10 pounds heavier than him and he gets criticized, now you still gonna criticize him for being what 4 pounds heavier this time than his opponent? Not to mention some mother****ers actually want him to fight the MW champ?

        Oh well haters gonna hate.
        see and that's how you and your ilk equate this

        haters gonna hate? really? how was that hating on Manny?

        because I have the opinion that in order for this to be somewhat competitive it should be fought at 140?

        did we not all see how bad JMM looked above 140?

        okay so here is a dilemma for you

        IF JMM looked horrible against Mayweather above 140

        AND most Manny fans here think people are discrediting JMM's chances against Manny above 140 and that this could be a good fight regardless of the weight couldn't we deduce

        THEN that Mayweather is indeed the better fighter simply because you all saw how much he owned JMM yet to hear Manny's fans an older slower JMM has a shot at being competitive?

        ?????

        can't have it both ways

            that is exactly what manny is doing
            if he wants to fight him let it be at 140
            jmm can weigh 137ish and pac would have to weigh exactly 140
            but this is just another sham in the career that is manny pac
            im not getting this fight
            ill check in here for the results

            I cant believe the hypocricy of mannys fans
            its amazing
            i thought floyd fans were bad but mannys fans take the cake and the crumbs

              JMM looked horrible because he fought out of his element. He is supposedly a counter puncher but he tried to force the action because Floyd doesnt want to.

              In Pac's case, JMM will resort to his counter punching because Pac will initiate the action. "STYLES make FIGHTS"

                This fight was propose after the Marquez defeated Katsidis. Posters here were crying why JMM was bypas over Mosley. And now all of a sudden he is no longer a viable candidate just because there is a possibility of a fight realistically happening..

                  As a boxing fan I don't understand what "irregardless of weight class means." Use your head.

                    come on. I mean as to the styles. do you believe Mayweather vs JMM will be a barn burner?

                      Arum and his team are a shrewd bunch; the 145 pound catchweight wasn't to compromise with JMM or to make the fight appear a little fairer... it was so GBP aren't able to match it.

                      GBP could have only matched it with a Canelo fight and the kid might barely be able to get to 147, so they won't even try to pretend to get him to 145.

                      Each fight would be intriguing, but I still want to see Pacquiao-Marquez III. Marquez is Pacquiao's Ken Norton.
