    That's why 138 catch weight is very fair game. Pac going down 9 lbs from 147. Loma going up 3 lbs. That's more than enough for Loma to consider. Like you said at 135 lbs, Pac will be unhealthy to fight at age 41. @ 138 I think it's definitely feasible.

    I think that’s where the money is.

      I'm a big fan of Loma, but he knows Pac would take his head off even at this stage.

        Are you nuts. This is a good fight. 2 fast elite fighters boxing it out in the ring. This is a super fight worth watching. If you can't even see that. You are in wrong sport doll.

        Why do you think the press was asking Loma about Pacquiao coz it doesn't make sense? lol

          Well here's the proof. As I said Pac's camp, Roach himself saying Pac's can weight @ 138 lbs.

          No reason for Loma to duck now.

            Pacquiao can't go down anymore without severely injuring himself, he's too old and his body has been acclimated to 147. If he tries, he'll be drained like when Canelo went to 152 for the Floyd fight.

              @ 1:50 mark - Even Bob Arum wants this fight at a catchweight @ 138

              It's only Loma who can't pull the trigger. Says it all right there who's ducking.

                Watch this video. Pac is a small dude fighting in the Weltwerweight. He can go 138 lbs with no problem.

                This is coming from Roach himself.

                saying Pac can weight @ 138 lbs.

                  It’s a joke of a fight. I like both fighters but seeing them meet where neither is at their best serves no purpose.

                    OK so Pac apparently walks around at 138, it would be very easy to tip the scales at 135 then, 3 pounds isn't even a cut.

                    No need for a catch weight at all, I mean loma walks around at 144, thats what he was 30 days out form Campbell. Loma is actually the bigger guy, who knew. Looks like the fight all 3 people want can happen after all.

                    You know your video is 3 years old too right?

                      That video of roach was in 2016. Pac is fuller now. So 135 is too much.. 138 is the sweet spot. Fair game. Loma goes up 3 lbs. Pac goes down 9 lbs south of 147. Can't be any fairer than that.
