:cheer:
So be it...the fight is at catchweight...period.
In the meantime, Pac is being scrutinised over steroid issues. From what I hear anyways, Wally Matthews, is the man.:crafty:
Fine then. Mayweather agreed to weigh X and then reneged on that. JMM got hit with 2 different agreements. Nice. I suppose we can say he...
Maybe he could have made 145 easy. But he could have made 147 easier.....he was asked to weigh an amount he had not weighed for quite some time....
Dont mix Cottos "choice" with the fundamental nature of divisions. A proper welterweight fight in a proper welterweight division sees fighters...
BOLLOX. He had a choice. Yeah, sure, fuck off and win a fight at 147 for $2m less. Some choice. The fight was a WBO title fight because that...
Oh, cry yourself to sleep with that. The upper limit on any weight division is imposed as both a right and an obligation. You have the right to...
Despite the fact that there never ever was any such an era.
And besides, they already remedied the problem by increasing Cruiser to 205lbs from 190. If a guy weighs 230 and his opponent weighs 250, then...
Vitali thrives off the relative uselessness of Sdunek. Sdunek keeps his mouth shut and gives Vitali a solid training camp, and Vitali does the...
Dude, you can be a dick all you want, i never called you a dick, but being a welter means two things, both of which must take effect: 1. The...
Mosley took the steroids unwittingly, I believe him because I want to believe him and because I think he deserves due process. However, that does...
Only when the participants are allowed to reach 147. If one or both of them are proscribed from reaching 147 on weigh-in then it is a...
He admitted taking a proscribed substance. Once. For an injury. As any juicer will tell you, its the cycling and stacking of steroids that does...
As I keep saying.....I think the were great fights. I just dont think they were welterweight fights. Valcarel, the guy who runs the WBO, is...
He did not take a performance enhancing product. He did not take products offered up by a company in the business of producing illicit junk. He...
I knew it. You thought this was an Anti-Floyd thread, didnt ya??? The name of the thread is "The WW div is Dead"...not..."Floyd is a Cunt" Floyd...
Coolio......
I never made that argument Reed, so, please, dont try to muddy the waters. If a fighter wants to be a welterweight Champ, he should accept that...
Any luck with that anecdotal klitschko doping evidence?
Yeah. Why are they agreeing to it? Because their arm is twisted. PS I understood that the WW limit was 147.
HBO invented it with the tacit approval of fight-starved fans, who were prepared to see tradition trampled in exchange for marquee events. Do I...
I dont mind catchweight. What I mind is catchweight masquerading as welterweight when the only true welterweight in it has been forced to make a...
Yes. Essentially, Welterweights must be allowed to weigh in at 147. Forcing a fighter to weigh less than the division permits is arbitrary,...
I will give you an example of what does tarnish the division: Tiger Flowers being allowed only 10 rounds vs Mickey Walker. This put Flowers at a...
Which must be a false premise. Welterweight is both fighters being allowed to reach but not exceed 147. In forcing Cotto to accept 145 {a weight...
Precisley Baron. There are two aspects to being a welterweight, one is that your opponent may not weigh more than 147 at the weigh in, the other...
That is irrelevant. You said that it was "commonly accepted" that the Klitschkos were roiding. Commonly accepted by whom and based on what?
It isn't. What is hard to understand is Val's hesitancy in accepting my argument about denying a "Welterweight" fighter the full breadth of the...
