    I'd say both Marquez and Pacquiao are roughly 2 inches smaller in height in comparison to Mayweather (Mayweather being closer to 5'8 than 5'7 judging from the many photos my mate has of himself and Mayweather standing side by side).

    Manny is a little shorter, he is the smaller of the two but its not a massive difference

    what's more important than the weights is how they got there.

    pacquiao eats like a horse to get to these higher weights. ariza has gone on the record in interviews saying that manny eats as much as 5-6 thousand calories a day and more during the heart of his training, to keep the weight on. ariza has him eating rich, drinking protein shakes, and god knows what else.


    in '09, when manny fought hatton, he was 138 lbs eating in this manner. he was 143 against marquez in '11. he was 144 for cotto. 144.5 for margarito. these are weights that floyd mayweather would have to starve himself to get to. manny got there whilst essentially "bulking up"

    mayweather's also 2-3 inches taller by the look of things at 5'8", and he has a five inch reach advantage. he's got long arms, yes, but he's also got a more spread out frame, which will carry more muscle easily.

    remember how small marquez looked against mayweather? did he look so small against pacquiao? the answer : yes, NE, marquez looked small against mayweather and was of a similar size to pacquiao.


    -NE, prolific bscener.

    PS: i want my bscene homies to friend me. i need credibility in this hoe. nobody here realizes how real i am. who knows if they even read my posts.

    Shane Mosely is 5 foot 8'5/5'9. That makes him almost 3 inches taller than Pac. Who is listed I beleive correctly at 5'6 1/2 (JG said he was 5'7 and he has met him, so this sounds correct)

    Marquez is listed as 5'7. He always looks the same size as Pacquiao.

    Floyd, consistently looks inch taller than Marquez. (Floyd is barefoot here)

    Floyd certainly isn't 5'9, and Pac certainly isn't 5'5...

    Floyd and Manny are of a similar size, Floyd is maybe an inch and a half or an inch taller, but they weigh the same, Floyd has a longer reach however

    Exactly. Floyd has the more muscular arms, Pac the legs. Its not difficult to decipher.

    Pac and Mayweather the same size :lol::patsch. Even a ******ed person can see that Mayweather is the bigger man. Mayweather is always in shape with very low fat that's why he weights what he weights. Pac only weight along side with Mayweather because of his huge calves and he now come into fight not as lean as he used to be as in the lower weight division. Even Floyd called Pac a midget.

    Cotto & Pac, same height^

    Mayweather barely looks taller than Cotto, not sure he would be noticably biger than Pac

    To be fair, Pacquiao has his trainers on whilst Cotto does not.
