    Pacquiao=Martinez

    To ask Manny to fight Martinez when there is such a weight disparity is ridiculous...a better idea would be to get that phony, Mayweather, in the ring with anybody......Manny has a fighting spirit like no other, and he is where the money is, and I believe that in the future, even Klitschko is going to ask to fight him....

      Give yourself an uppercut.

      1.) How the *** would you know? You are not qualified to offer any advice on what effect the weight had on either Cotto's preparation or performance

      2.) Your " opinion " changes nothing

      FACT: Just because a catch-weight was in effect for that fight, automatically raises the question, and minimises the accomplishment.

      I should have guessed that one of Manny's ***wit fan-boys would not be able to draw that same conclusion himself.

      And it is the same re: the testing..... Manny will not test, so I have every right to assume that he is a juice freak.

      Genius, there are only two reasons to demand a catch-weight.....
      * you are not good enough to compete with your opponent at his natural weight
      * you are attempting to drain him to gain an unfair advantage

      Well, you fkn genius..... which one is it ?

        The catch-weight doesn't count.

        * you are attempting to drain him to gain an unfair advantage

        Either of those reasons deem that fight an exhibition match, and nothing more.

            Interesting that Arum would feel the "weight" gap is too much. Arum meant "wait" gap.

            There has been a huge "wait" gap in Manny's "agreeing" and actually submitting to full random OST to fight Floyd.

            There is also a huge "wait" gap in Manny actually fighting someone coming off a win.

            And a huge "wait" gap in him fighting a fresh, hungry challenge in a fair, even playing field.

            There is alot of "wait" gaps when it comes to 'Pitty Pat gloves' Pac'n PED's Quackuiao.

                No excuse Arum. Pac is being exposed daily as a cherry picker.
                Margarito made 150. Sergio says he can make 150 if he cuts off an arm or a leg.

                Margarito out-weighed Pac by 17 lbs come fight night at a CW of 150. How much would Sergio out-weigh Pac if the CW is 154?

                People who demand this fight at 154 don't want to see Pac get challenged. They want to see him beaten.

                  This reminds me of when Yuri Foreman was "too tall" but Antonio Margarito was just tall enough. Both Foreman and Margarito are 5'11. Typical SMH!

                    hahahaha *****s desperately wanting pac to fight sergio.



                    this will be a perfect tune up fight that floyds been looking for,

                    if floyd beats sergio he can then hang with pac.

                      Martinez is too good so Pacquiao won't risk it. I don't blame him though when he can fight JMM for more money. The thing is though that people who praise Martinez and JMM are hypocrites because those guys are starting to hand pick too. Zbik and David Diaz. Lol. Those guys are way worse than the guys Pac has fought. And we just saw Katsidis get beat by Guerrero and the wins over Diaz and Casamayor aint that good.
