Pac/erik Rematch At 132lbs!!!

[czars_salad]

Erik needs his own weight class. He was too small @135 and was beaten to pulp @130 by a smaller fighter. Erik will make history in boxing by creating a new weight class of his own. This is truly amazing.

what a spoiled brat!!!

Because of Morales' difficulties making weight, Arum said the rubber match would be at 132 pounds, not at the junior lightweight limit of 130 pounds. The option language contained no specifics on the weight, Arum said.

Finkel said he didn't think the weight would be an issue.

"Bob would like to do the fight at 132 and we'll be able to figure something out to make it happen," he said. "It's not going to be a deal breaker."

WTF, Arum will do anything to make this fight happen on Sept. 21 at 132. I think Arum is full of bull****. I think the original contract really says 130. Even tho it is only 2 lb over than what was in the original contract, that is still gives Morales a breathing room. I hope Finkel would not give in easily. They have to use this to get some thing in return like more money for Pac.

what the **** is 132 lbs? are they creating their own division

They are fighting at catchweight. If it was anyone other than Pacquiao I think 130 would do just fine for Morales.

this guy is a real sucker...stike the iron while its hot (so to speak)...good businessman if you ask me...and a cunning one at that...he wants all the advantages he could get!

i just hope finkel and shaw play their card right and manny not get suckered easily.

Hopefully this won't happen. Paq should be fighting MAB before a Paq Morales 3 is even considered. No matter what the weight is that the fight is agreed upon, I think Paq would put another beating on Morales. **** I want a rematch between Paq and JMM mutch more then another Paq Morales fight.

I told y'all but you guys think I was just full of it. In reality this isn't a new scheme, catchweight bouts happen all the time. It's all about the $$$, I mean if the world was fair then the only fighters that should be next in line to step in against Pac should be Raheem(if he wants it @ 130lbs.), Juarez(I don't know what he has done lately), and Marquez(gave the toughest test out of the 3 jotos). The casual fans I guess would rather see a rematch of a fight that is fresh in their minds, I mean if Barrera wasn't so squeamish about fightin' Pac again he would probably be the one on the September date w/ Pac. Marquez on the other is just plain ******... Turnin' down SEVEN HUNDRED and FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLARS, WTF!
