    He should move up to 154 and fight Sergio Martinez.

    To say something controversial: I think he could beat someone like Sylvester or Sturm, even if he only weighs in at 155, and pick up a title at MW.

    Pac already said 147 is his last stop. He's already small at 147. At 154, he'd probably have to box more, as going toe to toe with the likes of Sergio Martinez would be extremely hazardous to Pac's health.

    Well, Roach said 147 is his last stop but he changes his mind about every half hour. Remember, he was considering Yuri Foreman as a possibility after the Mayweather fight disintegrated. Sergio/Pacquiao would be an action packed fight, one in which I'd expect Sergio to win but that would be an awesome fight.

    He can't go any higher, not without potentially doing damage to his body and losing his speed and movement.

    From 106 lbs. at 16 years old to 147 or 154 is impossible, right? :-(

    I think Pac would beat Cotto regardless of the weight so it'll be interesting to see how Cotto handles Yuri Foreman.

    I don't see him meessing with PW & Martinez at 154 but I think Pac would **** up Cintron and I'm dead serious about that one.

    I'd say his limit is 154 with mixed success

    I was actually trying to be funny. Guess my jokes aren't all that clever.:verysad


    Sergio Martinez would beat Pac like a drum. The extra weight required for him to make it to 154 would severely hamper his speed, movement, and stamina. He's a dynamic fighter, but he's just not big enough. Sergio has lightning-fast handspeed at 154, and has enough pop to get the Pacman outta there fairly easily in my opinion.

    At 154, Sergio, PW, Santos, Kirkland (if he can still make it when he gets out) would speed up his political career.

    He'll have no choice but to move up or down after Money gives him an old fashion Michigan ass whooping at 147.

    Santos is done I think. He's probably heading into another long ass inactivity period

    What the hell is a "Michigan ass whooping"? Getting laid off from a job at a motor company?

    Apparently staying behind your guard and occasionally throwing one or two punches at a time for 12 rounds counts as an ass whooping now.
