Why doesn't margaritto just man up and fight at a higher weight class

[Fidayeen]

as long as he makes the weight, i dont see what the problem is

its just pride, i would feel bad fighting guys that short

Troof......

seriously he is 5"11. He should man up and move to middleweight and stop picking on lil kids

Caballero is also 5'11" and fights at 122.

seriously he is 5"11 and has a muscular type of body, he doesn't belong in welter. He should man up and move to middleweight and stop picking on lil kids

marg already tried to move up to 154 and failed.

You guys make it seem like Margarito is the only one doing this, If he can make the weight whats them problem? when is the last time you guys heard of him having problems making weight?

maybe they could go back to same day weigh-in, that would probably make him move up a division or 2
as it would with alot of other fighters as well though

i dont even know who the **** he is , if he ever becomes a big name i'll make the same thread about him.

He's been making Welterweight for like 8 years now. It's clearly a pretty natural weight for him, so I don't see what the problem is. If he can make it without draining himself, than good for him.

He was blessed with a great boxers body. Can't condemn him for that.

When he ko'd Cotto and the steroid crap didn't stick this was the next excuse, even though Cotto did the same thing at Jr welter.

bad argument, by that logic we should bring back smaller gloves and 40+ round fights like in the old days

I'm for bringing back 8oz. I'm tired of seeing 10 oz in Vegas. 8 oz for Heavyweights as well. Maybe even 6oz for fighters from 160 and under.
