Alex ariza: "it's safer for manny to fight at 147"

Didn't emmanuel say it str8 out of his own mouth the other day that he's a natural light welter?:nut

 

Yep and I think Airza said before that Manny can easily make 140, but I guess here he's just saying he's better at 147 which doesn't make any sense to me.

 

And when did he supposedly say that?

Makes sense that he'd be stronger at 147 then at 140 though.

 

Pacquiao probably walks around 150 but not over and with a few extra pounds of fat. He can easily fight at 140

 

So, at 147 Manny has to lose no weight and at 140 he would have to lose a little. Either way he is not weight drained and fighting at or near his optimal weight.

I have a feeling if the show was about a fight at 140, the trainer would have said that is his best weight.

 

enough of this **** drinker at 140 crap, he hasn't proven **** at 140

talks would be ok if he's a proven 140lb but he's not

ol coke head beats **** drinker at 140

**** drinker didn't even want none of el terrible at 140

everyone needa stfu bout **** drinker at 140 when he aint even proven **** yet

 

There's nothing left @147 except Berto (overpaid, overhyped, refused to fight mandatory)... Floyd is irrelevant right now, too many legal problems outside the ring, I wouldnt blame Floyd if his mind is not focus in boxing.

140 is hot division right now, we got KHAN, BRADLEY, JUDAH, MAIDANA, MARQUEZ, ALEXANDER.

Pac is a cash cow right now, any fight with these guys would surely bring more than
1 MIL PPV.

Pac can still demand a 22.5 million payday against any of those guys.

 

I'm willing to bet that if Sergio had a bigger name and had struggled against Dzinziruk, Team Pac would have no problem making Pac-Sergio happen at 154.

But fine. Pac can choose to stay at 147. After he sends Mosley into retirement, I expect Pac to fight Berto, Williams, Canelo, and Bradley.

Obviously if Floyd miraculously works out a deal with Pac then that's the fight that is 1st priority. Berto has to beat Ortiz or keep winning to get a shot. Williams has been KO'd and would be drained if he comes back down to 147 which he will do so for the money, therefore Team Pac shouldn't have a problem facing him. He needs a win or two before getting a chance though. Canelo and Bradley are in different divisions but I don't think they'll have a problem making concessions for Pac.

 

u sure bout that?

i only see khan and bradley

khan (won't fight manny since they're friends) bradley (khan will take care of him) judah (got his ass whooped by clottey) maidana (just barely got a win over el terrible who many say is past prime) **** drinker (yea he's really a proven 140lber) alexander (what?)

 

pwill vs. pac would b awesome. Give pac a commom opponent wit martinez to gauge his chances.

 

Ariza says in this same interview that to fight at WW Manny has to "constantly be eating all the time, making himself miserable." Is it the opinion of this strength and conditioning expert that gorging oneself to the point of misery is a boon to one's athletic ability?
