    If you guys checked Pacquiao's weights during his days in 130, he weighed around 144 during fight night regularly. He's not actually gained weight fighting in the higher weight classes. He's just fighting in his natural weight instead of starving himself to death to make weight. Even these days, he's not far from the welterweight limit at fight night. He makes the welterweight limit easy with several pounds to spare.

    That's why his speed never changed. That's why his workrate never changed. Because he never really changed. The fighters he just fought only became freaking slower than he is compared to the guys he fought at lower weights.

    Haven't you been paying attention? Pac's been using PEDS his entire career! What you just said is utter bull****!

    TSS: You’ve fought in both boxing and Muay Thai and fought more than 150 times. Who would you rate as the best puncher you’ve faced?

    Chatchai Sasakul: Manny Pacquiao!!! One good punch from him and I was out. He has very heavy hands.

    what is he talking about all of a sudden pac's got power. he had it already even when he was skinny and not properly nourished.

    A Floyd groupie?:lol::lol::lol::lol:

    I've been complimenting Mayweather's talents in this forum since I first registered, but been the first to point out that he ducks tough matchups......his first retirement to avoid Margarito and Williams are evidence of that.

    He's he ducking Pacquiao now? Dont know for sure, but I dont think so, as its my opinion he came out of retirement for the sole purpose of a money match with Pacquiao.

    If I was advising Mayweather I'd tell him to forget about the random drug testing and announce he'd going to put up a boxing clinic with a fully roided up Pacquiao.
    For as far as the negotiations have come, that would really embarrass that whole Pacquiao team
    ....and the boxing clinic that would follow would be even more embarrasing.

    Mayweather imo does'nt even need to have Manny tested to thoroughly outbox him.

    ......but that just the way it is with Mayweather. He wants to minimize the chances that he'd get beat by a PED user.

    There is no question about it. Mayweather lacks the guts to face fighters that may pose difficult style matchups for him.......that however does not excuse Pacquiao who did not want to go through with those tests.

    Check his losses. He was weight drained in those fights. Also, he had to wear heavier gloves in one of them.

    yup, you're right but at fight night pac's weight going up to the 140's was due to rehydration. this time his 140 something weight is now additional muscle.
