    so why dont they just fabricate the figures instead of not realesing them?

    One of the biggest reasons that people claim Floyd is bigger than Pac is to fabricate some kind of obligation that Mayweather has to fight Golovkin or previously Martinez while at the same time pretending that such a match-up would be far too unfair for tiny Manny.

    As for the talk of Pacquiao going down to 140 in the near future or that somehow proving he was naturally, I'll merely point out that Marquez was brought up in weight for both fights, that Bradley was brought up in weight, and that Rios was brought up in weight. Pacquiao's been fighting at 147 for his own comfort, not that of any of his opponents.

    Floyd started out at 130.

    He weighed 136 on fightnight against Corrales.

    Are you saying he hasnt bulked up too?

    Eyes?

    The guy weighed 136 against Corrales.
    He now weighs about 150 in the ring.

    Is putting on 15 lbs not "bulking up". Its not like he put on fat.

    Why cant you just admit that Pacquiao was simply cutting weight to make those lower weights?

    Floyd never cut much weight. Pacquiao however used to be a beast at 126/130, and put on 15-20lbs over night

    they ain't the same size, people claim floyd is bigger than pac because he is. the inability of some on this site to grasp the most straightforward concepts is bewildering.

    Using the same logic, then Froch is bigger than Ward.

    Yet how many "Ward is smaller than Froch" threads are there?

    What?

    How did Floyd fight in the lowest weight physically possible when he was often outweighed by up to 10 lbs(Castillo/Corrales etc)

    It was Pacquiao that was dehydrating himself to gain a weight advantage over his opponents.

    Maybe not 15-20 lbs, but Pacquiao never put on less than 10 lbs when he was fighting south of 135.

    utter nonsense, all you're doing is denying logic, so you can forget a debate. and this, stupifyingly, is a "floyd isn't bigger than pac" thread. he is, and it's no big deal, unless you're a ***** looking to diminish pac's achievements.

    "midget" - quote floyd.

    Logic?

    This isnt a philosophical debate!

    These are FACTS! This has nothing to do with comparing achievements.

    Unless you think there is a massive conspiracy by all the sanctioning bodies and TV channels to deflate Floyds weight and inflate Mannys.

    They both weigh the same on fight night.

    They both fight in the same weight category.

    They have historically weighed the same on fightnight give or take a couple of lbs.

    These are verifiable facts.
    Thjis is not about "logic"

    The size difference between Manny and Floyd is no different than the size differnce between Ward and Froch.

    If you're going to make an argument that Floyd is bigger than Manny because he has longer reach and is slightly taller, then you have to accept that Froch is a bigger man than Ward.

    So which is it?

    So you're just going to completely ignore that 2 clips I just posted that they were both the same weight going back over a decade.

    Completely ignoring facts is one way to win an argument I suppose.

    The "fact" is, that you have no time for facts

    i told you i'm not gonna debate utter nonsense.

    what is the problem with the fact floyd is the bigger man? it really is no big deal.
