    Most boxers can fight in three to five weight classes in their careers and as they move up their punch count numbers drop as they get older.

    Am Im the only one who finds this very strange that as Manny has gotten older he still throws more punches now than what he did as a featherweight ..the smaller the weight class on an average throws more punches than heavier class boxers...on top of that he also seems to be stronger.

    Ray leonard ...5 weight classes
    oscar dela hoya 6 weight classes
    roy jones jr 4 weight classes
    wifredo benitez 4 weight classes
    pernell whitaker 4 weight classes

    These guys punch count went down on an average

    Manny pacquiao his punch count keeps going up and up

    NOW TELL ME THIS ISN'T DRUGS...STOP CHEATING THE SPORT.

    For him not wanting to take a simple blood test ...this is very strange.

    He turned pro at 16 dude.
    Perfectly reasonable.

    You aren't concerned that mayweather was the same weight at 16 and went up to 154?

    On his way up the ranks and weights, he did not have the training that he does now.

    Well you need to preface this by stating that Manny began his pro-career at 16. If we use the same logic then Floyd's success is equally suspect as he has technically moved up eight classes. Most elite pro fighters turned pro around 20, so your best bet is to see where Manny was at 20 and how many weight classes he has moved up since then.

    This is definitely A-Meth. Imagine if Floyd would've taken that! He would be 10 weight division champion now!

    And? What's the point? They are not the same person. You are plain dumb and don't have any logical argument
     
  10. All those guys put a lot of weight on as they moved up. Pacquiao's put on barely any fighting at 130, 135, 140 and 147. The reasons for him looking stronger at higher weights is threefold:

    1. He has hardly any extra weight on to make him tire out quicker from throwing punches.
    2. He's able to eat better and train harder.
    3. He's no longer draining himself to make weight.


    I honestly can't believe this concept would be difficult for any sane human being with an IQ anywhere near or above the mentally ******ed threshold to ascertain on his own.

    Mayweather had one fight at 154 and weight in at 150

    Proving he's not a jr middleweight and still today mayweather fighting weight is 147.

    Not that strange.

    Pac turned pro early. Picked up two titles in the Philipino circuit while his body was still maturing.

    If he had turned pro later like Mayweather. He would probably have done the same thing but 5/6 weight classes considering he skipped a division when he was younger.

    If you seen the way this guy trains, you would see. He's still hungry.
