Be honest with yourselves. Is it normal for a 112lb fighter win a title at 154lbs?

    If you toast bread, they call the bread that's been toasted "toast".

    Do you know how much he would rehydrate to when he was fighting at 112?

    NO. No one can do it but Pac and Duran.

    That's it.

    Nothing suspicious about it. A non-champ should not be allowed to dictate his terms to the champ. It's more of pride that Pac did not accept immediately.

    In all sports once in a while a guy comes along who rewrites the rule book, Pac's that guy.

    All this Peds talk shows exactly why he's so great, he shouldn't be able to the things he does.

    Usain Bolt is also doing the immpossible right now, gets more tests than anyother athlete walking this planet, always clean. It's a pity people can't look at Pac in that light.

    Pacquiao is poor half of his life. Had he had the same opportunities as Floyd growing up his greatness would have come out much much sooner.

    Better nutrition and better training can make dramatic changes when you have Pacquiao's poor beginnings.

    Manny started at 106lbs, and won his first world title at 112lbs.

    The reason why he can now fight for a 154lbs title is to be found in your username...

    Whatever way one looks at it, of course its not normal for a 112lbs fighter to win a title at 154lbs, but that's what makes its extraordinary, makes it special, etc.

    Your average person cannot even box, let alone accomplish something like the above!

    Going from a malnourished teenager with little knowledge of strength training regiments to a 30 year old man that can afford to eat and have the best strength training in the world can add 35-40 lbs EASILY. I added 20 lbs in 6 months when I started training with Creatine.
