    Im just highlighting the point that a 140 fighter looks bigger then Pacquiao.

    Pac didnt look any bigger then Marquez who had come from lightweight.

    As others said Pac was a kid when he turned pro, as he grew his natural weight division weight is around 130-135, at 145 he's fully hydrated and glycogen loaded. There's nothing amazing about it.
    He's a fairly muscular guy so when he was 16 the hormones wouldn't have really kicked in yet, as he got a bit older they would've and his DNA would've signalled the inevitable muscle growth. Same thing happened to me, I was a stick thin 16 year old but a couple of years later without even doing any serious exercise I just stacked on muscle out of nowhere.
