    They'll probably come in the same as they do now, very close at least. Pac at 130-135 used to rehydrate to high 140s. Once he settled in at 147, his max fight night weight was like 151. I don't think Crawford and Garcia will be much different. The welters Pac fought were bigger than him, we're talking about current lightweights now... Crawford was hurt by a small Gamboa, Pac will probably KO him. Take Algieri, pretty big Jr welter, couldn't handle Pac's strength because of their size difference. Pacquiao is short, but he's not "small". He weighed 156 at one point for the Algieri training camp, very early in camp.

    I doubt it. Both guys have bigger natural builds than Pac. Do you have a link of Pac weighing in at 156? I find that extremely difficult to believe...

    Oh, sorry.

    You think he could make MW?

    He'd still be pretty big at 140.

    This was on a thread here, and the YouTube video is Philippine language, Philippine media. So finding the video on YouTube is difficult because of the language. And the video wasn't about his weight, it was about media day training camp, his weight just happened to be revealed when he stepped on the scale: 156.3.

    I don't make this **** up.

    I step on a scale fully clothed, it adds 1-2 lbs TOPS. How did I know you'd make the same excuses these other fanboys made? :patsch

    Just face it, Pacquiao isn't walking around at 135-140 and ballooning up to 147. He's walking around at 150-155 ish and cutting weight.
