Why doesn't JMM come in at 135??

[straightleft]

Both JMM and Pac can easily fight at 140lbs, but dont want to cause they both know that Humberto Soto is moving up to 140lbs and desperately wants to fight both.

many people dont realize this, but Pac, JMM, EM, MAB, Guerrero, Linares, and so many others are so damm scared to fight Soto, cause they all know that Soto has the most brutal left hook-to-the-liver than anyone else in boxing.
Just look at the first 15 seconds of this vid, and you'll see how vicious Soto's left hook is:

when Pac was at 135lbs, he jumped 2 weight classes to avoid Soto and get a FIXED win with his co-promoter-DelaHoya.
JMM also vacated his WBA/WBO 135lbs belts to avoid Soto too.

right now, only Rios is the one that would fight Soto, but it dont mean nothing cause Rios has no idea the danger he's getting himself in.

but now that Top Rank ripped off Soto and owes him over $1 Million, Soto cant fight a TR fighter, cause it wil tie him up to TR and TR wont pay him what they owe him.

Who Soto did beat?

I was wondering the same thing as well. Perhaps not 135 but at least 140.

I think it'd be the perfect situation for Marquez to go into the fight with as much chance as possible.

Well then Pac haters cant say that JMM was bloated, fat and slow if he looses. JMM can come in any weight that he wants as long as it's not over 144, I don't see why people have a problem with this.

Roy Jones Jr. 193 pounds vs John Ruiz 226 pounds for a Heavyweight title.

If Marquez learned anything from the Floyd fight, it is that he should have came in at his most comfortable weight so that he isn't sluggish in the ring. Weighing in at 135 will be better then trying to make the contractual limit.

So what if Pac has weight advantage? i thought JMM beat him twice? so you Pac haters mean weight advantage would make Pac more superior? is that what u haters were saying? or Pac is really a beast above 130 lbs? Pac wouldnt even reach the welterweight limit come fight night. If JMM is really that good i dont see any problem.

for your information JMM in his best weight, best division couldnt even beat Pac. so you can make all the excuses you want but Pac in his best weight would annihilate JMM. end his career.

I agree, why do people still think that JMM has to weigh 144. That is the weight limit, he can come in any weight that he wants as long as it's under 144.

for the millionth time, there is no minimum weigh limit , only maximum...

jmm can weigh whatever the **** he wants just as long as he does'nt go over the contractual limit during the offical weigh in....

but why the hell should he cut weight to 135 when he can come in at already comfortable weight of around 144?....that **** is ****** to me....

I agree, he should come in at the weight he's most comfortable at, whatever that weight is. *****'s act like he's being made to come in at 144 which is ludicrous, he can come in at 135, 140, 144 ... anything he wants under the limit!

Pacquiao carries weight better, and it'd be ****** to give an advantage to pac in lbs, when he's already the way faster guy.

Exactly, these imbeciles, act like Marquez coming at a "comfortable" weight will somehow level the playing field. This fight should have happened years ago. Now its nothing more than another sham to steal more money from the casuals and give yet more paper accolades to a paper champion.

Smoke and mirrors.

The 2nd fight was only 3 years ago and JMM has only lost to Floyd Mayweather in that time period. JMM has earned a chance to redeem himself for a fight many people thought he won.
