    So pacs amazing he moved up 3 weight classes. But dont mean he had to do it against DLH. When he beat DLH he fancied he could do it against marge as well. But your going off on a tangent now.

    So why didnt Floyd rematch JMM at a lower weight like 135 or 140 at the very least? You want Pac to rematch Cotto at 154 as Cotto would have a better chance? So why dont Floyd rematch opponents in their ideal chosen weights? Why didnt he fight hatton at 140 or rematch him 140?

    What are you rambling on about now. Pac beating people easier than Floyd dont mean hed beat Floyd. So Floyd needs to get in the ring to prove that. Encourage floyd to geet in the ring./

      Lol ok this makes no sense you want FLOYD who fights at 147 to go down to 135 to give a guy he beat a rematch. A guy who was the the number 2 P4P fighter in the world when he called FLOYD out. Floyd moved up three weight classes to you know he started at 130 then went to 135 and then 140 and then 147 and then 154 so I guess he's amazing too. How come MANNY didnt give Marquez a rematch at 140 instead of making him fight at 147 the same weight he fought FLOYD but FLOYD's wrong and not Pacquiao lol

This would give him a huge size advantage over Floyd the night of the fight. Look at Ortiz for an example. He is fighting at 147 when he should really be at 154. Ortiz can make 147 but he goes all the way up to about 165 in his fight vs Floyd. These fighters can train their body to make a certain weight then rehydrate back to their natural weight over night. Apparently Chavez.Jr can rehydrate 20 pounds over night back to his natural weight. This is why Floyd vs Martinez at 154 isn't a good idea.
        manny fights all the time with size disadvantages. quit making excuses for your man crush.

          Now i see what you are abut. Just jealous Pac beats commone opponents better than FLoyd and making excuse after excuse. Pac just fights a lot more than Floyd. Floyd has to do more or he will be criticised its his own fault.

          Did you see how much JMM begged Pac to fight? Pac gave in and gave him a fight at. Why dont Floyd give Pac a fight, with all Pacs begging?

                  they might be bigger but they're always drained, old or way past primed fighters coming off recent poor performances.....this is a fact!

                    Floyd Jr and Floyd Sr simply know the simple truth -
                    Money man can't pull the trigger no more; the way Pacman demolished Cotto.

                      Why isn't Floyd Sr. training anyone good??

                      why isn't big mouth Floyd Sr. training anyone good in boxing. If the old ex-con drug dealer is that good as a trainer where are his fighters??? What a waste of air. That old man is worthless.
