  • Can someone please LINK me to Pacquiao's Catchweight no rehydration clause contracts?

    I see a lot of floyd apologists repeating what Roger Mayweather said about Pacman not letting fighters gain weight on fight night.

    Now they are using it to say that Floyd's catchweights will be legit because there is no rehydration clause like Pacquiao did to Oscar and Cotto.


    Please show me a contract or legit proof that Manny Pacquiao had a clause in his contract that fighters were not allowed to weigh more than the weigh in weight on fight night.

    thanks.

    DLH was allowed to rehydrate. It didn't help him though...

      Yup, nobody has any proof, its funny how these Pac haters can lie so freely and make stuff up as if its true, just like how they call Pacman Pacroids.

        Go back and watch the fight. HBO did a fight day weigh in. Oscar weighed 147 and Manny weighed 148.

          Actually Pac was 148.5. That's just more evidence there was no rehydration clause, not that more is needed:

          1. You could not sanction a fight with 2lb overnight rehydration in the US, or anywhere in the western world, for medical reasons
          2. If there was a limit, wouldn't the bigger guy not come in under by 2lbs+? Unless he screwed up his weight, which he obviously did even without a clause
          3. Nobody takes such debilitating clauses, especially the guy calling all the shots

            What it proves is Manny, the smaller guy, weighed more than Oscar. And your gonna sit there and say there wasnt a no rehydration clause.

              So Manny was allowed to rehydrate but Oscar, the guy who calls all the shots wasn't? Stop the bull**** man. Oscar messed up in more than one way that night and Manny punished him for it.

                I agree with this.

                I have a hard time believing that Oscar, who was still a mega star, and much, much bigger name than Pacquiao at the time would bend over and sign a contract that prevented him from rehydrating...

                  if anyone had the disadvantage it was Pacquiao. De La Hoya went down to a division he hadn't been in years, Manny went up to a division he had never fought

                    Oscar was the shot caller.

                    He was too drained to actually rehydrate at all. It wasnt in the contract. He needed an IV afterward because his body wouldnt have been accepting fluids.

                    His fault though. Nobody was telling Oscar what to do.
