Why is Manny Pacquiao asking for another catchweight?

What are you talking about? Yeah I'm well aware that Pacquaio would weight in up 140-144 when he was at 130 and 126 but so was his opponents like the 3 legendary Mexicans. Those guys were LW/Jr. Welter fighting as feather weights. While Mayweather was Jr. Welter as light weight.

Tell me, now that their bodies had matured. Do REALLY think that their sizes are still similar. Mayweather couldn't make the catch weight (144) that he set on against Marquez while Pacquiao gradually loses weight all the way down to 140 when he trains to fight at Welter. During the weigh in he'll only weigh-in at 142-144 and hydrates to 147-8.

Now let me ask you this why can't Mayweather make the catch weight against Marquez? And doesn't he wanna reveal his weight during the fight?

 

When the last time pac revealed his weight on fight night you jackass

 

knives you my friend have been OWNED!

 

How was I owned? atsch

 

atsch You obviously didn't see his fight with Hoya, and Hatton. During the Cotto fight not entirely sure since I didn't see the tale of the tape. During the Clottey fight I believed they didn't broad cast both fighter's weight. By the way, Pacquiao never hid his weight unlike Mayweather.

Anyway, you didn't even answer my question. Do REALLY think that Mayweather who can't even make a 144 catch weight and

to revealed his weight during the fight is still the same Mayweather from 2 years ago. JACK ASS

 

So going by that screen shot above, David Diaz is also the same size as Floyd?

A word of advice, a person's weight alone does not determine their size!! If you honestly thinks Manny is as big as Floyd, you need to have your eyes inspected. Floyd's frame is a lot bigger, not to mention his 5inch reach advantage!

Why is it that Manny when training for a 147 bout, must force himself to eat excessively in order to be in a competitive condition for the bout. Naturally he's a 135/140 fighter. It's only because he's a physical freak that he's been able to compete with the bigger guys lately.

You'll all witness first hand the size difference between the two when they meet. Floyd has naturally grown in to a powerful Welterweight now.

 

What?

His weight isn't going down. He eats 7000 calories a day because he's burning 7000 calories a day.

You do realize Pac isn't the only one eating a lot of calories a day right?

 

Exactly! :deal

 

Manny is eating so much because he's BURNING that much.


Manny is not special, other fighters are all eating tremendous amounts of calories when they are training that hard and long.


The fact is, when Manny is not training, he goes UP in weight, not down.

 

Exactly, if he doesn't eat that 7000 calories his weight will go down. According to his conditioning coach if he isn't forced to eat that much his weight will go down. Pacquiao is really a small welter. Hell the man doesn't even belong at that weight, he's just a good boxer that's why he can compete at that weight.

Basically, what you're trying to say is that MOST people who is 5'6 or just the people in general eats that much calories. Anyway, what does that have to do with my argument of Pacquiao is not the same size as Mayweather?

 

It's the same for ANY fighter. If Mayweather didn't eat as much as he did, he would lose weight, HELLO. Is this not obvious? Pac is a small WW but he's a champion, that can no longer be an excuse.

No, what I am saying is that anyone who trains like Pac does and is Pac's size would be eating similar amounts of calories a day to maintain weight.

I dont agree Mayweather is the same size as Pac but the difference isn't as big as you are making it out to be.

But you are exaggerating this Pac eating 7000 calories a day thing.


So I will say it again, he eats 7000 calories because he's burning 7000 calories a day. When he's not training, he's not eating 7000 calories.

Do you understand how this works?

 

Let's just agree to disagree about this eating thing we clearly have a different point of view of this and it's not worth fighting over.
Stating a fact that Pacquiao is small WW is not a excuse. I'm just a merely stating a fact that Pacquiao is smaller than Mayweather.

My point is that if Pacquiao and Mayweather's size are the same or at least similar Mayweather would've made the 144 catch weight (without completely draining himself) against Marquez. Seriously just look at Mayweather's body frame it's clearly bigger than Pacquiao. I doubt he still weigh 146-7 when he hydrates to fight at WW.

Cute chick on your avatar btw.
