    [FONT=&quot]"Pacquiao's weight increased from 106 to 113 pounds before losing in his 12th bout against Rustico Torrecampo via a third-round. Pacquiao failed to make the required weight, so he was forced to use heavier gloves than Torrecampo, thereby putting him at a disadvantage."[/FONT]

    First of all, the fight you brought up (Pac-Torrecampo) wasn't at light flyweight. The Torrecampo fight was at a catchweight of 111 pounds, 1 pound below the flyweight limit. And Pac weighed 112 at the weigh-in, so he was 1 pound over the catchweight, but actually did make the weight limit for flyweight.

    Besides, Pac not being able to make the weight shows that he was TOO BIG for light flyweight, which would support the argument of somebody saying it wasn't that hard for him to move up, not your own argument of him being naturally too small.

    In other words, you're making yourself look like an idiot here.

    And he thought Pacquiao was too light that's why he was forced to wear a pair of heavier gloves :p
