    Is 2 pounds difficult to shed so close to the weigh in? Will Matthysse miss weight or be drained making weight?

    Pacquiao will probably weigh in at 145-147 and rehydrate to 148-149. Matthysse will most likely be 155+ on fight night.

    Two pounds is nothing, he seems to be right where he needs to be at this point.

    1lb a day to lose is fine.

    It all depends on what the fighter will weight on fight night and how they loose it.
    And proper dehydration is also a key factor.

    But these two have had a lot of experience with making weight and they should handle it with ease.

    Pacquiao was at 145 yesterday, bro. The only possible question mark is Lucas.

    In Pacquios case, it could be that he lost too much weight too soon. But highly doubt it. That would be a serious wtf case.

    Huh? Pac doesn't lose weight to make weight, he has to eat more to make 147.

    I call BS on that. Pac moved up to 147 before Horn made his pro debut. Pac has settled into it.
    Maybe when he moved up they had to feed him like crazy because of how much he worked out, but that was a long time ago.
    Dude is 5´6 and carries plenty of muscle. He is a natural/true welterweight.

    He is 150 tops. Meaning he can take a **** and make the weight. Aka a true welterweight.
    Manny doesn't have to work to drain himself to fight at welter. Rest of the top guys do.
    Manny could move down, others could easily move up.

    Again, Manny could make the weight during the same day weigh in era.
    How many other welterweight could do that?
    When was the last time Manny said he had to eat to make 147? 2012?
