    Even if pac started his career at 16 107 no doubt most fighter would have burned out, pac on the other hand has excelled in size and weight. Lots of fighters have started their careers at 15 and 16 years of age and at lower wights pac was practically a straw weights. but none have ever moved up 47 pound and competed at that same level, with no adverse effects.

    "Upon his death it was discovered that Armstrong’s heart was a third larger than that of the average person. This allowed him to fight at a ferocious pace for 15 rounds without loss of breath. It seems certain that he could have done the same thing in a 20 round bout. "

    If i get this, as 99% of fighters burn out, it means Pac is cheating ?
    Better write to historians and inform them Armstrong never existed then.

    Neither did Carpentier, Duran, Walcott (the first) etc....:silly

    I have to laugh at Floyd saying that he was the same weight at pacs age

    then a split second later says that pac lost fights ehrn he was young, forgetting to mention that he too lost fights at young age

    Why is the blood test so ****ing important? There's absolutely no need for it, ffs.

    If your talking about manny's inexplicable punching power, he has decent but nothing extraordinary. After knocking down Cotto and had him noticeably weakened in round 4, Pacquiao battered him for 8 more rounds with solid blows and still Manny couldn't put him down or for good. Same story with Dela Hoya and Diaz. Hatton was caught by one solid bang to his suspect chin and it happened after 2 knockdowns the previous round.

    If Floyd suspects Manny is juicing, this is what he should have done. he should have call ed for the introduction of random blood testing as a method to ensure clean fight but be implemented as a something voluntary with Floyd agreeing to go through it while politely asking Manny to do the same. Manny will be pressured as hell to oblige because there will be huge pressure from the media and fans for him to follow suit and if he doesn't, and he wins, nobody will believe Manny won fairly. His legacy is ruined and all his achievements will be put to question.

    Somehow, Team Floyd elect to a bullying tactic aiming to get the edge in mental warfare not knowing that the other side has bigger ego to get bullied thus the fight got killed.

    Of course you'd throw that out there. Go look it up.

    At 16 he was 106.
