    I'm only nitpicking that part because its really the only part that's blatantly incorrect.

    You're saying Pac can look shredded too. I never said he doesn't, and its irrelevant when discussing the sheer muscularity (NOT shreddedness, but actual SIZE and depth) Bradley is displaying in some of these pics, in which you insinuated that he didn't have

    Pac is smaller but if you look at some of his weighin pics of 130 and 135 he looked ripped to ****.
    Bradley is a natural 140 to 147lb with extremely low body fat (ive seen the types in my gym actually)
    He clearly lifts weights (he even said so himself) but hes not super bulky.

    You are also only looking at the torso now, take a look at Pacs legs at 130/135 they are HUGE especially his calves.
    Where Bradley is very skinny from the torso down.

    I feel kinda gay now paying so much attention to male physiques tbh thanks for that.

    Anyway i worked in nutrition my entire life, my theory is simply that Bradley at some point in his life dieted down to that type of bodyfat and after that kept a very strict diet to not compromise his strength and not gain fat.

    For what i know though he is a vegetarian and getting enough protein into him has to be challenging.
    I think he looks bulkier than he is because hes probably at only about 6% body fat.

    I don't know why you keep bringing it back to Pacquiao, it's really not about him at all. I know what he looks like at 130-135, that's nice. Except Bradley's just as shredded if not more in weigh ins at a higher weight. And during fight night Bradley balloons in size.

    It would be more appropriate to compare him to a fighter like Jones.

    Top Rank should really play the huge muscular guy angle with Bradley. Hardcore fans know that physique isn't so important however casuals would look at Bradley and see he's undefeated and think "Wow, Manny's facing that?".

    You confuse shredded with bulk.
    If you take some lanky guy like Khan and shred him down to 6% bodyfat he would look muscular as well.

    Someone like Shannon Briggs is bulky, 260lb+ with visible abs and bulging muscles.
    Bradley has some bulk on him but not that much it only looks like it because he has extremely low body fat.

    Bradley takes his training very seriously. I've read that he fasts for a few days before every camp to get rid of any toxins in his body, I also read that he goes vegan & lives on rice, beans & vegetables.

    I'm sure like all other top athletes he takes lots of supplements but I'd be surprised if he ever failed a test.

    Yes. Why doesn't Pac demand the test?

    Yes, why, indeed? Hmmmm.
