    Some say Pac only wins because he drains his opponents. Why doesn't history support their claims?

    PC: Was coming down to 145 tougher than you thought it would be since you hadn’t weighed 145 or less since 2006?

    MC: I felt really good at that weight. It wasn’t a problem for me.

    Yeah man, let me tell you, that whopping 2 pounds sure gave the SMALLER Pac a huge advantage. Nevermind Floyds quote of there's holes in cottos boxing game after Pac smashed him, but hey, that whole 2 pounds threw the whole fight. NOW Cotto is a legimate opponent after being smashed by plaster and Pac. God i love mayweather, he saved boxing.

    Yes he did. But we are only talking about official catchweight fights. Even then, no light middleweight should ever get beat up by a one fight lightweight.
