floyd is taller, had the longer reach and has the bigger build. furthermore, he is much settled at 147 where pac had just one exhibition fight against oscar which he weigh-in at 142. anyone who says pac is of the same size as floyd are either delusional or plain joyboy.
False. Pacquaio has grown into his frame and is naturally a 140lber now. Floyd had 4 fights at 147. He's gained 2-4lbs since moving up from 140 after the Gatti fight. Well Floyd has cut 8-9lbs before to fight at an even lower weight class. He weighs 147-149 on fight night as a WW I would say they are far from assumptions.
pac has 1 fight @140lbs but he's already a natural 140lber while floyd has 4 fights @WW and 1 fight @ 154lbs but still a natural 140lber!!! hmmmmmm...nice!!!:thumbsup
There's a difference when you have to cut 9lbs to make weight compared to having to cut at most 2lbs to make weight. Pac is a naturally LWW. Look at how much he was adding on going back to the Morales 3 fight...
tolindoy - If we went back to same day weigh ins for fights, Pacquiao and Floyd would both be fighting at 147.
oh ****, i am a huge EM fan and second only to pac in terms of being my favorite. :rofl:rofl oh ****, lets give it a go. sure, pac beat morales who had longer reach and size advantage. pac beat jorge solis too. tell me, at what weight did pac fight morales and solis? pbf and pac equal in weight?:rofl do you really believe that **** that pbf will weight at 149 during fight night for a 147 fight? if pac and jmm will fight at 140, how the hell can pac be bigger now? did pac suddenly grew taller, enlarged his frame? guess what, pac weighed in 138 during a fight for 140. does this not give you an idea of his true fighting weight. whereas your idol refused to go to 140 because he is having difficulty attaining it. considering he is going to fight an older and smaller man. no wonder the floydettes are becoming the roast of the town. :tired
how can you compare floyd to morales, floyd's body frame is a lot wider and significantly bigger than morales..
Yup, i know..But the funny thing is Floyd a natural 140lber..:rofl:rofl:rofl If he's natural 140lber then he would have accepted JMMs offer to fight @140lbs....:rofl:rofl:rofl NATURAL WEIGHT - means thats the weight you're comfortable fighting...com'on man you must be out of your mind if you say FLOYD is natural 140lber...
He does it for everyone of his 147 fights what makes you think he won't do it now? He already said he was down to 146 a couple weeks ago. Pac can easily be bigger by adding muscle to his frame, you do realize when you add muscle to your body it makes you bigger right? Pac weighed in at 138 for 140. Congrats, he cut a few extra lbs. He still weighed 148 against Hatton. I find it funny that because Pac is in the driver seat and forcing challengers to come down to him is okay but when Floyd is challenged and he has someone move up it's not okay. Considering Marquez doesn't have to add anything and he'd still be only a few lbs away from Mayweather on fight night.
Why fight at 140 when you can fight at 147 and have the same exact fight? Specially when you are challenged. Comfortability? But if you dont believe Floyd can make 140 then you shouldn't have a problem with the fight happening at 147 then?
Thats the point, Floyd prefer @ 147 while pac and JMM prefer 140 lbs...why??? because floyd is naturally bigger than them...Thats the point of this thread..Its not about who challenge who or what weight should they fight...deal:deal
Floyd prefers 147 because he doesn't have to cut weight and he's been the one being challenged. Why go down for someone who challenged to fight you?
Hey Floyd - I know you fight at 147 but I can kick your ****ing ass! But you have to come down to me.
truly, fans idolize athletes who they think share the same values and therefore live vicariously through them. :rofl:rofl:rofl sure man, jmm will just be a few pounds from mayweather during fight night right. 1. a few pounds lighter. 2. 5 inch or so reach difference. 3. 2 inches shorter. 5. just 5 years older. :rofl:rofl:rofl. give me some of that **** you are taking. one great hallucinogen man.
Nothing to do with anything By your justification Floyd should never fight Cotto. You act like size differences aren't part of boxing. You act like Floyd is the first do this. But then again Im talking to someone who doesn't believe Floyd has ever weighed 149 on fight night as a WW.
