this means if agieri DID win, no matter what his nickname would be,
he would have both the wbo 140 AND the wbo 147. he has a remote
chance of coming out of this with titles in 2 divisions. if he loses, he is
still the 140 champ. the best pac can do is defend his own title and if he
loses somehow, even by some scandal or robbery, he has no titles.

pac wouldn't have to do very much to make 140 and then it would be
pac who would most likely come out of it with the wbo 140 and 147 titles.
i know the abc titles mean little, but these guys still fight for titles, so
why wouldn't pac want to hold titles in 2 divisions instead of one?
there are arguably better fights for pac at 140, especially if golden boy
is really willing to work with TR, as oscar claims. pac is the one who holds
all the cards and he isn't making the most of it. seems like a bad business
decision. if pac is going to fight for titles and pay sanctioning fees, then
he should go for the 2nd title. algieri can't afford to say no.
no they dont....these broads fight over purses

I am guessing its Roach. Roach is well known for somehow getting the advantage in weight. Sometimes it is a catch weight, other times it is to bring them to a weight they have not been before or would be uncomfortable at. If Roach thought Algieri was best at 147 the fight would be at 140.

if there was a method to the madness, that would be exactly it

I forget, when did Pac fail a drug test to make these nicknames topical?

How about "The Superfight Killer" since he's already knocked Provo out of a potential fight with Pac or Floyd, and beating Manny would finally squash any thoughts of him and Money.

Why do you Turds get all butthurt when someone rags on your boy? This is supposed to be a fun thing, if you don't like my nicknames for him then don't bother to comment on them.

Bro, you get butthurt as well when people rag on your boy floyd. You should probably take your own advice sometimes and not comment on things that bother or fluster you.

LOL, I personally don't care what you or anyone else call Floyd, hell I've called him an idiot for his antics outside the ring but in the ring he deserves all the respect in the world.

Why it hurts you guys to say something about Manny is beyond me.

I retract my statement, I'm sounding like a hypocrite. I'm a Raider fan and I don't give a sh*t about how good the Niners are; I will forever talk sh*t.

You know what's really lol? That Floyd and Pac both employed CWs, probably both used PEDs, but only one repeatedly slandered the other for the same thing. Neither guy proven user, but plenty of smoke all around.

But CW wise, Pac asked for his first in his 7th division. Floyd asked in only his 5th, despite being a 2x champ in the same division and unifying. That's some serious history cheating, a lineal catchweight champ. Ditto for Cotto.

I'm still not sure which drug test Manny failed?

Hopefully the only name we'll call Algieri after the fight is victorious.
