[Kagami Taiga]

what i wanna kno is why is it discrediting pac when a mayweather says it but its totally ignored when ariza, pac's nutritionist, says he exact same thing??? maybe, just maybe, these guys said the same thing because theres some truth to it???

What's funny is these *******s and *****s are all the same. They argue for each guy as if they work for them. *******s say "Floyd avoided Margs to fight Baldomir" but didn't Pac do the same when he fought David Diaz instead of say a Nate Campbell or somebody else with more skill then Diaz? *****s say "Pac beat a washed up Hoya" Well here's some news for you, Hoya was on the downside of his career when he fought Floyd too.
LOL it's a never ending battle.

What you say is tru about it being a never ending battle.

But to your points..... Floyd wasn't moving to a foreign weight division when he fought Baldomir. I don't hold it against a fighter when they move up in a weight and dont take on the lineal champion - those are very strenuous expectations. For example I wasnt screaming bloody murder when RJJ moved to heavy and fought John Ruiz ionstead of Lennox Lewis LOL.. Pac fought a washed up DLH, True, but nobody was picking him to win that fight so its only with hindsight that it looked like a mismatch. In fact, I read that they tried to pass a bill quickly in the PI preventing pack from fighting in the US before the DLH fight because they were certain he was going to get annihilated. Its only now that we see how easily Pac handles these bigger fighters. I give Floyd credit for the DLH win altho is a SD and he's actually kinda lucky they gave him that decision in DLH backyard.

In the end it honestly does not seem debatable or up for interpretation at all which fighter is more accomplished and more willing to take on all competition. I fear the rest of Pac's career will be man-handled by Arum milking the biggest money fights possible, destroying what made Manny so unique in the first place.

Well, it's common knowledge that with age it only gets harder to cut weight. Margarito has stated that he struggled to make weight for the Mosley fight. Not using it as an excuse as I believe Mosley would wax him any day, but watching 24/7 it's plain as day that Margs doesn't belong south of 154lbs.

Truth hurts, don't it!

i guess marg shoulda asked to fight mosley at 154 lbs then.

please post a link where ariza said margarito will be weightdrained.

2 years ago..manny was fighting at 130....can he make that weight now??? NO!!!!!

your right, thats what manny said, he will not go back down below 140...manny is smart. delohaya on the other hand didnt have to go down to meet pac, noone to blame but himself.

and lets point out that margarito have to lose about 10 lbs for pac, while martinez have to lose a reported about 20 lbs to fight williams.

[Jim Jeffries]

So Margarito lost to Mosley because he was weight drained now?

And he had so much difficulty making 147, that he decided to come in over a pound lighter?

[sigrab jr]

how does a guy to be in great condition come official weigh-in, then bulk up as much as 160-165...how is that being weight drained?

LOL at bulk up. No fighter bulks up, they rehydrate with water and other liquid, meal, etc. Bulking up is working out/adding muscle.

[megas30]

damn, *****s will definitely duck this!...lol

You guys are missing the point...the OST is not to catch ppl cheating but a deterrent in case someone might want to attempt cheating.

[sigrab jr]

Weight drained? Margarito has fought a large part of his career at welterweight. An additional 3 pounds is going to strengthen, not hinder him. Christ the Mayweather's are some ignorant f**s.

His last fight was at 154. He's going DOWN 4 lbs, not up 3lbs
