    How was Pacquiao a natural 120 lbs when he was killing himself to make 122 at 21 years of age?

    Man at 23 years old against Julio he rehydrated to 129 pounds. His natural weight in my opinion was 126 pounds.

    Who did Carpentier beat? His best win is over a career welterweight in a fight where he outweighed him by almost twenty pounds.

    Yes he fought from flyweight to heavyweight so what? What did he accomplish?What titles did he win?How many HOF fighters did he beat?

    And if you think that if he was around today he would fight in all 17 divisions then its obvious that you dont know what the **** you're talking about but we already knew that.

    Go back to the wellfare line...

    I'd say that Pacquiao was the Armstrong or Duran of our era.

    You don't know **** about Carpentier. The weight he was fighting at was considered flyweight 100 years ago but would be lower today. Do your research.

    I'm not comparing resume I was originally talking about Pacquiao not being the only fighter to go from flyweight to welterweight.

    Pacquiao is a drug cheat you just don't know what to look for in a fighter to see it.

    I don't know what I'm talking about? ***** if anybody doesn't know it's you because the entire reason I bring up Carpentier was because Pacquiao wasn't the only guy to go from flyweight to welter. And yes Carpentier wouldn't fight at all divisions, he would fight at light heavyweight at best. Pacquiao clearly has a better resume of wins and losses.

    Go back to your boyfriends bed maricone...

    ive made that same argument on here for years. pac, by all rights, should not even be good enough to challenge a welterweight champion of floyds stature, much less chase him for 6 years and then chase him again in the ring.
    floyd was an atg fighting at his optimum weight, pac wasnt. a win or a loss means completely different things to each fighter.

    God damn your stupid. 122 is super bantamweight. If he was killing himself to make 122 then he wouldn't be coming in 2 pounds under the limit at 25!

    I agree. Pac's wins at welterweight is made up of guy who either recently moved up/weren't true welterweights or guys who were growing out of the division like Cotto who he brought down to a catchweight.

    unlike all the other welters who have such amazing resumes in the last 5 years.
