    Actually, they should. With the amount of coverage Pac's run has gotten, they've gotten beaten into their head how awesome it is for someone to move up and win.

      They know, because of the news on tv. But I dont think they know the signifcance, the weight drain stuffs and all the details. Im a big fan, but I believe in greatness and resilience, if ur truly a great fighter 2-3 pound difference doesnt matter, 119 vs 122 is nothing. I also believe that the 145 catchweight of cotto against manny doesnt matter as much as people here think it did.

        Even if they completely understood divisions,weights, weight cuts, rehydration, nutrition, PEDs, etc... it wouldn't matter.

        David vs Goliath still sells

          Honestly I dont care all that much about (some) weight classes and I doubt the average fan does either. Its just numbers to them.

            Oh my effin lol.
            This isn't a 2-3 pound weight disadvantage genius.
            And I bet you wouldn't be saying this if you ever had to step in the ring or go on the mat with somebody at a weight advantage

                    "Man, I'd beat that fool Klitschko, I'd break his jaw and I weigh 160" - Casual Fan

                    Canelo is laughing right now, he will break this guy to pieces within 4 rounds tops. They are punishing Lopez for upsetting the apple cart, Ortiz-Canelo was supposed to be THE FIGHT, now Lopez must pay for his mistake.
