Can Boxing Fans criticise Pacquiao for his catchweight fights and accept that Ward

[HeroBando]

It is a fact that Pacman chose Cotto in 2012 no higher than a mannyweight of 148, period.

Pac after Marg: I'm never fighting at this weight again. Fact.

Yeah for Pacquiao to be in a constest he has to be outweighed by his opponent in the ring by around 15-20lbs.

Shame on Pacquiao for not giving up that advantage to Cotto.

Pacquiao wanted the fight at 147lbs not 148lbs.

And Cotto at 148lbs is better than Dawson at 168lbs.

All these Pac haters should be banned im telling ya.
Even if Pac asked for half a pound CW, they would hate Pac more than Dawson and blame Pac.

His CW was only 2lb. It seems like the very notion of Pac having the audacity to even request it in the first place as an advantage horrifies them, as if they are angels and Pac has commited some kind of sin.

No one even knows if that CW effected Cotto at all. It may have actually made Cotto be in more shape and actually train harder than he normally would do. At least Pac was brave enough to fight Cotto, and now its time for Floyd to show some of that bravery and ask Sergio for a CW fight of 158lbs

So the hysteria is play acting at its worse. It reminds me of Koreas president who died recently and footage of all the koreans citizens crying their hearts out at the dictators death whenever the camera zoomed on them to make out they loved the dictator. More like they didnt want prison.

Yea cotto volunteered to drain himself for a 147 fight at 145 while he also would put his belt on the line so he can be a champion at a 7th weight class........Oh wait!

Cotto drops 1lb and is drained.

Dawson drops 7 lbs and is not.

Perfect example of a biased poster

how do you know that?
did ward ask for a catchweight or for daawson to come down in weight?
did manny ask cotto for a catchweight?
did manny ask margarito for a catchweight?
1 of the top 2 fighters in the world is the one asking for catchweights

[letsgobrady]

Dawson drops 7 lbs and is not.

Perfect example of a biased poster

cotto walks around at 146?
i'm pretty sure dawson doesn't weigh in at 175 on the dot for all his fights

Pac after Marg: I'm never fighting at this weight again. Fact.

Did you read the post I quoted?? Pacman did choose Cotto, but turned around & ducked him because Cotto wouldn't fight at 147, period. I don't see how or why Margarito got brought up.
