Pac coming in at 144.6 without even trying means that he could fight at LW

    If he wanted to. Every other fighter in the sport loses several pounds of water weight and then bulks back up on fight night. Pac is no bigger than guys like Soto, Guzman, Funeka.

    I agree. He looks ****ing tiny next to Margo. It makes his last few performances even more insane to consider what you've said. I hope Pac fights at 140 next. Floyd is a coward, he'll never come to the table. Manny would be a flat-out MONSTER at 135 or 140, like he was vs Hatton.

    True, his natrual weight class at the moment is 140 imho, I think tougher fights are there for him, but money guys are in the 147-154 range...

    i think 135 might be a stretch. 140 is perfect for him.

    I'm sure he could make 135 easy he is eating a lot to keep this kind of weight on. The thing is, he sure looks stronger and tireless for some reason at these well fed weights even though he is tiny. I feel like the habit of dehydrating catches up to a lot of fighters, then putting on weight usually slows them down but for some reason Pac never slowed down. Great! Very happy with the way his career turned out.

    I also think he can make 135 easily. He would be murderous back down at those weights.

    JMM is the lineal champ at 135.

    I think it would be foolish to go down to 135 and fight JMM right off the bat. He needs to get re-accustomed to the speed down there first.

    In other words a Margarito win means Pac gets to remain (in the eyes of some anyway) p4p no1 due to the size difference.

    He`s a fkn WW now, when are people gonna accept that ?.... he`s beaten Cotto, Clottey & admittedly a drained DLH all at 147... he`s 1 of the top 2 WWs & p4p fighters on earth.

    Being a JWW good enough to beat WW's doesnt mean he's a natural WW.

    RJJ beat Ruiz at HW but RJJ was never really a HW...

    IF Pac gets past Margo, watch & learn while Mayweather gives him a lesson in the art of pure boxing.

    Mayweather UD all day long.

    Ps. If you have proven you can not just beat but dominate several top 147 lbers, why would you even consider dropping to batter the 140 lbers ? :huh
    Makes no sense to me, WW is were Pac should be fighting unless he looks even better up at 150, I doubt it but never say never.
