If you don't believe me then look on youtube, There is a video of boxingscene's own Fillipino sports analyst Ronnie Nathanielz saying that he believes Marquez won the fight but the judges gave it to Pacquiao because he is more marketable.

Wasn't Pacquiao penalized for beng overweight? He was forced to use heavier gloves to compensate for his weight advantage and he lst his title. Coming in overweight would cost him his title and at that point in his carreer that belt was very important. Even if he won against Singrurat he would stll lose his title.
And another thing that annoys me is that Pacquiao fans make excuses for Pacquiao coming in overweight and getting knocked out by Singsurat yet when Floyd comes in overweight but BEATS a Hall of fame opponent 12 rounds to zero then it's like some sort of travesty and horrible thing that he did?
Hypocrisy at it's finest!

Floyd might have tried to make weight, But he didnt make it so it doesnt matter whether he tried or not. The bottom line is that he came in overweight and had a weight advantage. This is the same situation with Mayweather so Pacquiao fans cannot say Floyd cheated because then Pacquiao cheated also.

I'm not making excuses for Pac. I simply do not believe that he purposedly came in overweight to have an advantage against Singsurat.
Of course he tried to make the weight. He wouldn't have made it to 113 if he didn't try. Remember that Pac immediately moved to 122 after this fight so cutting to 113 would have been a struggle. Is it common for a flyweght to immediately jump to super bantam weight? It's a clear indication that Pac has out grown 112.
Was it wrong for him to come in 1 pound over the limit? Yes. That's why he suffered for it by being stripped of his title and being forced to wear heavier gloves. And he had nothing to gan by coming in overweight since he would be stripped of his title even before the fight.
But did he intend to cheat and gain a weight advantage by coming overweight? No, I don't think so...Last edited by merjohn32; 07-01-2010, 04:43 PM.
