    I would never assume that Pac is on anything - the only weird thing is that with all the training footage, I never see real weightlifting, and bulking exercise. A little strange considering he looks like Bruce Lee at this weight.

    I really don't think Pacman takes any kinds of PE. When you turn 28-30, your weight becomes MUCH MUCH MUCH harder to take off, and just naturally increases. Anyone who trains would know this.

    Pacman cut weight for years to make 126 from his walking around weight of 145-150, which is not unheard of for an elite level athlete. Toney, Buddy, all have stories like this. Now his body is aging and cannot handle the massive weight swings that younger athletes can.

    Yeah thats so strange. I mean Pac is a PROFESSIONAL ATHLETE and trains almost every day of his life for his sport. You reckon that might have something to do with it? :patsch

    Cintron is probably trying to score a payday by talking **** about Pac he is just making himself look like a douchebag. Scoring a fight with Pac is like hitting the lottery for a lot of these pugs albeit a lottery where you are going to get your ass beat. Pac KO cinton RD 3 and that's being generous hell Martinez KO'd Cintron.

    I can attest to this as I have a VERY difficult time cutting to the high 150's


    More muscle was put on the legs over the winter, but age also has a lot to do with it.

    He hasn't maintained his speed, he's gotten a little bit slower. That's natural when you pack on weight. But of course your going to get stronger the bigger you get, it's kind of a given. He's more heavy handed now.

    The rest of it is just genetics, nutrition and training, plain and simple.

    Would you say Floyd Mayweather takes steroids? He's gone up weight-classes and is still one of the fastest (if not the fastest) boxers in the world. He's always in unbelievable shape. It's called training, dedication and hard work. Genetics plays a big role.

    Your the guy who made a thread about how Cotto will beat down Pacquiao. And made fun of people picking Pac.

    Sourgraping now, I see.

    What I meant is, how could Barrera and Marquez go the distance with Pac and not Cotto and Hatton and DLH? I mean Marquez went 12 rounds with Pac just 2 fights prior to him fighting DLH. And The Pac barrera rematch was only 2 years ago yet pac couldnt finish him yet he can move up and take the punches of all these big guys without getting hurt, even though he was hurt by smaller guys in Larios, Barrera, Morales, and Marquez?

    Simple. Marquez has a solid granite chin. Never been KOed. Has been knocked down many times, but never ever looked hurt, ever, in any of his fights. Barrera has a great chin too, and in his 2nd fight, actually fought just to last the distance. Add to the fact that Pac is actually getting stronger when moving up in weight. No roids needed, until some kind of proof surfaces, really shouldn't even be mentioned.
