    Could Pacquiao even make 140 and remain effective?

    Hes 147 on fight night, maybe this thread is pointing to fighters draining to 10lbs above their natural weights these days and they couldnt do that in the 80s because they had same day weigh ins back then

    He is a question mark at 135, I think he would be found out at 140, and thats 140 in any era, his been exciting at lower weights, but his KO power becomes almost redundant when your travelling through the weight classes.
