    How many more weight divisions can Manny go up before he meet's his match?

    He'll be in the Super Six at this rate!

    Amazing.

    He cant, welter is his limit, 154 was too much its just that his peed saves him from being ktfo. I do belive he can beat sturm at 160 (157 catchweight) and pick up a title there.

    Thats it. 144-148 is the most hes ever going to weigh-in at. If hes going to fight a super middleweight you can bet your house that Pac is weighing no more than 149 at the scales.

    I'm guessing there's no minimum weight though?

    Ever been to a casino Boxed Ears?

    Sometimes when you are on a hot streak you just have to let it ride.

    You'll look foolish if you lose but reek the benefits of impressing the hot lady in the red dress at the table if you win. :smoke

    depends who he fights, martinez would probably start favourite over him at 154, he could beat sturm at 160, i wish mosley was 5 years younger cos i'd give him a hell of a chance against pac

    I'd like to see Pac take on Williams or Martinez. I think either of these fights would be difficult for both fighters. I also think a fight against Berto would be a good fight for fans, and for Pacquiao's legacy. Berto looks like hes ducking big fights, he needs a payday and Manny may be able to knock him out.

    Going up to 160 just wouldn't be worth it. Pacquiao isn't built for 160, he isn't even built for 150 or 140. He's built for 130-120 but because he's such an athlete he pushes himself up in weight.

    Current LMW division has no true champions or contenders so Pac just conquered an empty division (Martinez + PW moved up, Cotto is a WW, Bundrage is unknown,...). No discredit for Pac, he did a great job dismantling Margo.

    But while Margo might be a natural LMW, he had most of his career success at WW and was unimpressive in his previous fight at LMW... Pac did great but I believe he caught the division right on time. Pac is great but we can say, the rest of the LMW landscape is not...

    This will be the final stop at LMW, even though he dominated Margo, he was troubled for the first in a long time (since Marquez, Morales). Going up to play with the bigger boys will endanger his health. I don't wanna hear any excuses of: "Yeah they said that when he moved up to LWW and WW, but he can't keep moving up forever. He struggled at some point against Margo, taking some good shots. Moving up would trouble him some more... and so on!!

    Pac didn't fight at 154 he fought at a catchweight of 150.
