    i feel this fight is going to make less and less money the longer it takes to make

    the peak hype point has been passed and is now decreasing....like a chart with a line that goes up and down

    If there's anything inaccurate about what I said, feel free to point it out. I suspect you'll both remain quiet or come back with some more vague childish bullshit that doesn't address the point whatsoever.

    Floyd agrees to fight the smaller weaker man at the agreed weight - oh wait sign this contract with a get outta jail card - the biggest l4l bitch ass move in recent years.

    Frauds legacy is just that - say what you will about manny but compare and contrast their opponents. Manny is the greatest fighter by a country mile and he will get into the ring and prove it fight after fight.

    Manny looks for the challenge, Floyd looks for the easy way out every time. Manny beats Mosley in a similar fashion to PBF and look at the reaction. The pac man is done, he should retire blah blah. Compare their level of performance, PBF wins - Manny destroys

    And he has the nerve to tell me not to open my mouth. This guy is the biggest fucking nuthugger EVER.

    The contracted weight for Floyd vs JMM was 144. So sorry, I was off a pound.

    Loadedgloves is correct.

    That fight was at the 147lb maximum, and the catchweight was a contractual agreement between the two fighters that Floyd bypassed by paying the sum disclosed as part of the agreement.

    Yeah, he paid the fine as a PENALTY for not making the contracted weight and it was 144 not 145. JMM weighed in at 142, how much more of an advantage does Floyd need? I mean the guy had never even fought over 135 to begin with.

    It's odd that you'd say that considering this is about the third time Manny has beaten someone that Floyd has already beaten.

    Not sure how for one fighter it is a challenge and the other it is the easy way out.

    As far as the whole weight issue, no better than Manny demanding catchweight title fights at every moment and forcing fighters to be weight drained in order to fight him.

    He paid a FINE for NOT making the contracted weight. Period. What the fuck was there a fine for if there was no breach of contract? Why didn't they just agree to 147 and pay JMM the 600K more in his purse?

    The contract stipulated that Floyd could weigh in at the WW maximum if he paid Marquez a certain sum of money.

    Therefore, the weight for that fight was 147lbs, as per the last minute changes to the contract.

    How ever you want to word it, the end result was Floyd got himself a nice advantage over an already much smaller man. Slice it however you want. What ever makes you feel better.

    Why would I need to feel better? Floyd is a WW, the fight was at WW.

    Catchweights are inane, and Floyd had to do what he had to do to get the urine drinker in the ring with him. Marquez took the money, got whooped on and that was that.

    mayweather jr fights at welterweight. marquez went on HBO and asked to fight him. marquez asked for a catchweight with financial stipulations. when did mayweather jr ever ask for a catchweight?

    Did what? Fought a WW contest at WW?

    Pacquiao fights WW title contests at 145 and Junior Middleweight title fights at 150.

    A little different.

    I figured after you defended your hero a bit you might feel better. If you do it enough you might even believe half of what you post.

    To be fair, he's basically a midget. I guess that doesn't mean anything to anyone though. What he's doing against these bigger guys is nothing short of crazy, if you can't see that then I don't know what to tell you.

    Nope.


    Especially considering Floyd himself is an undersized 147lb fighter.

    "Marquez called Floyd out"

    Yeah, and all of the sudden Floyd was in the business of accepting challenges from other fighters. When it's a fucking lightweight calling him out. Where was Mr Challenge Answerer when Margarito was calling him out?

    I didn't say Floyd asked for the catchweight, I said he agreed to it.

    Oh and when he went up and won a Jr Middleweight bout, HE weighed in at 150, but unlike Pac did not force his opponent to drain himself down to the weight.

    He also fought a vastly superior Oscar De La Hoya compared to bum Margarito.

    Margarito is, was , and always will be a nobody.

    He never deserved to fight Floyd.

    Hindsight in 20-20, but nobody was saying that when the fight was on the table.

    I know, he took the Baldomir fight instead of fighting Margarito. Save the response though, I know what you're going to say.

    Nobody cared. Floyd would've beaten him, and it would've been just another fight for Floyd.

    OR actually, just another bum that Floyd cherrypicked on. :rolleyes:

    This is like a broken record, I will post about Mayweather when he actually has a relevant fight announced. Until then, I am done talking about old news.
