    Lol, and thats without trying to cut weight. Pac is pretty much the same size as most LW's. Most LWW's have to cut weight to make 140lb, thats why most LWW's are bigger than him on fight night. Rios, Bradley, Algeiri...yet *****s will claim why is Pac picking on LWWs.

    True.....but Manny has power. Naturally.....he's just a small welterweight. But to beat Floyd he definitely needs both. I just think Manny is focusing on speed moreso than power so he can ensure his stamina is on point. Work rate, speed, power......all that needs to be topped off before the fight so Pac look like he does from round 1 thru 12, if necessary. And even having all that working for Manny won't guarantee him victory on May 2nd. Manny really does need to fight the perfect fight to hand Floyd his first "L". It's a tall order but Manny has all the right qualities and style to do it. Will PAC be able to put everything together come Saturday? I don't know.....I have Floyd winning a decision......in a close, competitive fight.

    Nah, 144 would be fine. He needs to be light footed. Incidentally, the time he weighed nearer to 147, he lost both against bradley and marquez.

    I don't understand why floyd fans still insist that floyd is a small WW. Pac is a small WW. Floyd is definitely not.

    He is bigger than Pacquiao but he is a small Welterweight. Floyd will be 150ish on fight night. While bigger than Pacquiao that isn't a huge size advantage

    Floyd: "I'm a big WW"
    His fans: "no floyd you idiot, you're not big WW, you are small WW.

    Hey whatever weight he was when he knocking down the 5"10 guy is where I want him. Obviously going down a bit helped his power.

    (It was 143 btw)

    He'll come in 146. Fortune already said. Then 150 fight night

    Won't be much different than what he usually weighs, just a few lbs lighter. I'm betting Floyd will rehydrate to 150-ish.

    Speed when used intelligently can make a fast fighter look ordinary
