    ... because making 140 has become increasingly difficult for him.


    As reported by Kevin Iole.


    Can we all agree not to take anyone who complains about weight in this fight seriously after this?


    (By the way, according to boxrec, Bradley's been coming in over 140 for about half his career).


    Apologies if this has been posted before, but I didn't see it, and I was still seeing people complaining about this over the weekend.

    They are about the same size-Bradley is probably a little bigger-

    I expect a competitive fight-Bradley has a lot of skill but lacks power.

    You don't need power to keep Pac off you.

    I don't think the weight will be that big a deal since Pacquiao is a small WW, but really, what do you expect a guy moving up in weight to say?

    Unless Pac has slipped considerably then he should batter Bradley - at whatever weight class.
