Margo was no longer a WW , he was a boiled down JMW that had not fought for years at 147 and he had blown up with age , he couldnt make WW then if his life depended on it , weight is relative to time its not stuck in time other wise Pac would still be a flyweight , lets see Manny make LW or even JWW today its only a few pounds but Manny will not do it , if he fought Bradley at 140 then you might understand what it is to these fighters being forced down to fight him because you would see a big difference in Manny .
Dont give me they are not forced because they are , they are forced by take it or leave it and they dont have the resources to walk away from that kind of pay day , its not a gun at their head but they are fighters and they will fight if they had to take it with an arm tied behind their back they will still take it , put them in the box seat on top of the mountain and they will tell them to go fck themselves with CWs .Last edited by Reloaded; 05-31-2012, 11:40 PM.Comment

Margarito was a natural Welterweight and not only was not asked to come in less than 147 but was allowed to weigh in at JMW and came into the ring at 160. And Mosley was a Welterweight too. No, Pac did not ask Mosley to come in lighter than 147, that makes him a Welterweight.Last edited by richardt; 06-01-2012, 12:04 AM.Comment

Joshua Clottey was also a Welterweight that Pac fought. Next time I charge for this information. I do not accept personal checks.Comment

actually the catchweight was 150, which margarito weighed in at, and he came into the ring at 165. combine that with no skills and a target as easy to hit as a barn door, and you got yourself the perfect pacquiao fight...
so dont say he was allowed to weigh in at junior middleweight, cause if he was, he woulda been 154, not 150.
****** is as ****** does i guess...Comment

This would end up been a real showcase fight for Pac, Because he is actually fighting a fighter who is undefeated, who doesn't seem intimidated, who isn't war-torn, who isn't drained before he gets in the ring etc
Even though i expect Pac to practically destroy Bradley it wouldn't be easy still, Am expecting Bradley determination to play into Pac hands.Comment

January 09 was Mosley and November 10 Pac is nearly 2 yrs shy 2 mths . and he fought at 154 in between , he was not a natural WW he always struggled with weight it just matched his style to be as big as he could be in the fight , if he fought the bigger guys at 154 earlier on he probably would never have won a WT .
After boiling down to make weight after training to make weight it dont matter if you rehydrate , you never had the muscle because you trained to make weight not trained to be as strong as you can be , you just dont know how the body works in making weight .
You really dont have a clue how a few pounds can effect an elite athlete over time , its like a jockey that boils to a set weight for years and then goes up a bit only to find he cant make the lower weight ever again without killing himself . when you starve the body for so long and then give it some more it will retain and you cant loose it , and when these fighters find that out its 30 hrs to fight and its all to late , Margo took diuretics to make 150 , do you know what that signifies ? and then he refused Cotto at 150 because he knows he cant make it , its all there if you open your eyes .Last edited by Reloaded; 06-01-2012, 12:32 AM.Comment
