Manny Pacquiao, "If Sergio Martinez can make 147 lbs we can fight"

Bro, in all honesty both Pac and Sergio have viable opponents in their respective weight classes. They need to clear that up before looking for a catchweight type fight against each other. Money and P4P status would be the only reason for making Pac/Sergio.Comment

The same Margarito who kicked Martinez's overrated ass
So now you want Manny to fight Tony's leftovers at a 150 CW, and you wouldn't cry like a b*tch about Sergio being drained at that weight? Come on man, you know and I know as soon as this fight would be announced we'd see a million threads calling for more 'boycotts' and Manny 'draining' Sergio, blah blah blah.
Sergio needs to stop ducking Pirog and get in the ring and accept that $3 million offer Dmitry's team sent his way.Comment

Manny was fighting as a featherweight at the beginning of 2008, but by December of that year you wanted him to fight Oscar at 154? The fact that he even took a fight at 147 was considered suicide by most people until after the fact, then people started rewriting history (:cough: you). Oscar fought at a 150 catchweightagainst Steve Forbes because he was getting ready to go down to 147 for a Floyd rematch. But for whatever reason, Floyd decided he would 'retire' instead and that left Oscar without a dance partner, so he made the 'dream match'. He was cherry picking a featherweight who had just 1 fight at lightweight. He was the biggest star in the sport and called ALL the shots (weight, gloves, split, etc)... but now the way idiots retell history, Pacquiao forced him to be weight drained
And the Margarito fight was originally supposed to be at 147 until Sulaiman and the WBC offered that vacant JMW belt. And don't say that a career WW in Margarito was drained by getting an extra 3 lbs that he didn't have to cut. He even said it himself that benefitted him, not to mention he had 17 lbs on Manny in the ring. But of course the way clowns like you rewrite history, he was a starving refugee in the ring and only weighed 13 lbs.
Cotto was 146 in his fight against Clottey, only had to shed 1 lb against Manny. I'm sure that was the only reason he lost.
Again, Sergio had an offer that doubled his career best to fight Pirog, a MW, but he turned it down. If anyone is ducking, it's Martinez.Comment

This is pathetic. Just what I've come to expect from all peasants.
His reluctance to fight Martinez at 154 shows just how much of an 8 division titlist he really is.
This guy is the recipient of so much hype he believes his own press.
Fighter of the Decade for beating guys that Floyd, Antonio and Shane already beat while they were on top. Manny fought them when they dropped down to fifth rank and got an award for it.
What a joke.Comment

lol, SEE?! I told you guys that Pacquiao wouldn't fight Martinez unless he'd be willing to drop down to 147.
ANYONE dangerous. Remotely dangerous. Needs to take themselves out of a comfort zone to fight Pacquiao.Comment
