Pac fighting at 147, basically his walk around weight, is equal to if Spence, Crawford or Ugas fought at 160. Closer to their walk around weight.
If Pac did what every other fighter does, then he would be trying to kill himself to make 135lbs and just fight guys his size there. And rehydrate to 147lbs like Castillo and Corrales did and how basically all Lightweights do.
Fighting at 147 means he will usually just fight guys who are scared to do what he does: Fight guys way bigger than him.
Pacquiao racked up a pretty damn good 147 resume considering that he was never fighting anyone his size barring Mayweather and JMM.
Pacquiao, if he wanted to, could call all boxers cowards for refusing to fight in their walk around weight. And he would not be in the wrong for saying such. But he is too humble to be that honest.
So 5'8"" Floyd is the same height with 5'5" Pac? 5'5" is Pac real height. Floyd said he wore elevated shoes to increase his height a bit. He can increase his height a bit but not his reach and physical body.
Height is not size.
Mayweather and Pacquiao are the same weights on fight night.
There is virtually no difference between them in weight.
When Mayweather was at 147 and Pacquiao at 130, both were coming in at the same weight on fight night. Both were technically welterweights in the ring. When Pac was 145lbs in his 130-135lb fights, so was Floyd. Floyd literally weighed 146lbs on both the official scales and HBO’s unofficial (fight night) scales vs Judah.
The difference with Mayweather was that he was more desperate for big money fights so he went up in weight for bigger fights.
A lot of fans seem to confuse Mayweather’s rise to 147-154 as him being “big”. When in reality he just did it for money. Also, Mayweather does not seem like the type to kill himself for an advantage. So while boxers his size prefer to stick around 130-135lbs for a while, Floyd did not like that. This is why he weighed 146-150lbs on fight night in 147lb fights. Same size as Pacquiao. Height is not size. That’s….height.
Tyson being 5’10”, and Diego Corrales being 5’11”, does not mean Corrales was bigger than Tyson.
Corrales and Jones both being 5’11” doesn’t make them the same size.
Tyson and Wilder are 5’10” and 6’7”. Wilder is bigger right?
Wrong, they are the same size. Both in their prime are 215-230lbs. Tyson, on average, was bigger than Wilder. By like 10lbs.
But the 6’7” vs 5’10” height throws people off and lead them to say Wilder is bigger, just because he is taller.
I appreciate greatness. But if Floyd ever lost a fight (which he hasn't), I wouldn't be here making excuses for him a little *****. Floyd and Pac are about the same size yet the expectations for them are different. People expect Floyd to move up and pursue greatness while Pacboys make excuses like how he's too small to fight in the weightclass he's been fighting in for nearly a decade.

People failed to understand by Pac fighting at 147 he needs to overcome his opponent weight advantage, height and reach beside dealing their arsenals. If Pac stiil want to continue figting then he should consider moving down to 140.
You named yourself after another man like a little kid or a fangirl.
I would not even be surprised if you had a Floyd Mayweather tattoo on your ass cheeks.
Go ahead and change your username to Floyd's Wife. Go see if he is hiring males in his strip club and strip for him.
Pathetic.
Does your father know this?

But humble enough to give credit to Ugas. He has cramps, he didn't get hit in the body.
Can't even defend your own bull****.

I am one of the biggest Pacquiao haters on this forum. The stupid username that you have pathetically named yourself "Floyd is TBE", I am one of the biggest Floyd fans here and I do not even have to name myself after him like i'm his son or his wife or something.
Why are you naming yourself after another man like a damn cornball? Who does that? How old are you?
Given by your replies and your username, you're likely still a teenager.
Go ahead and come back with another "Durr durr durr".
You make Floyd fans look bad with your stupidity.

Crawford can chop an arm off and still won't make 135lbs. The guy walks around 177lbs according to himself. He can fight at 160 and still look physically fit, e.g. not bloated.
If he’s walking around at 177. He is just like Mikie Garcia and just wants a payday against Canelo. He is not built for that weight. I’m taller and weigh 170 and consider myself a fat slob compared to 20 years ago when I boxed.
Sounds to me he’s given up on a legacy. Sad and a huge waste. Canelo will KILL HIM.
I agree with everything you said except about Mayweather. Weightwise, Floyd is bigger than Pacquiao.
They are the same exact size. There is evidence for this everywhere. If the sky is blue, but you choose to say it’s actually green, that’s on you and that is not something I can argue about.
If it snows in Alaska and you tell me it never snows there. I have my hands tied, I really can’t discuss that. You are shown proof in your face, but decide to burn the proof and make up your own facts, I have no argument.
When Pacquiao was coming in at 145lbs in his 130lb fights, Floyd was coming in at 146lbs for his 147lb fights.
I am not sure why you choose to go against facts, but like I said, that’s on you. Mayweather being 5’8” and Pacquiao being 5’6”, if that is what you are saying, then yes, Mayweather is taller.
But Mayweather and Pacquiao are the same size. Neither of them come in the ring heavier than 150lbs.
Pacquiao’s head is the size of a HW doe
You meant his wrists?

Weight doesn’t matter when most of your fights against larger opponents were catchweight or unfair weight class. Oscar Cotto Margarito the biggest fighters he faced and all 3 fought Pacquiao at Catchweight or moved down in weight. You’ve been on full damage control since he lost to a 35yr old pillow puncher. He’s not as great as you all claim. You love his fighting style and personality but that doesn’t mean anything in boxing it’s all about wins and losses. End thread!
No price how he skipped over this because he know it’s the truth :lol1:
Everyone SHOULD fight at the LOWEST weight they can. If they don’t. Their not very smart. People like to fight welterweight cause that’s where the money is.
pac really should be fighting at 135. Spence, Ugas 154. Bud is really a 135 pound fighter.
Some men can move up and do good. Some cant.
Crawford can chop an arm off and still won't make 135lbs. The guy walks around 177lbs according to himself. He can fight at 160 and still look physically fit, e.g. not bloated.

Make what case? You are delusional. If 147 is too much for him why doesn't he go down to 140. Oh but he can't because he can't make that weight. He's a 147lber. No one cares where he started. All that matters is he that's he's fighting at 147 now.

Make your case, instead of resorting to “Pac fans this” or “Pac fans that”. You are making no argument. Just typing just to type something. Argue against what I said. I’ll wait.

Oh god. Pacboys have no shame.
No shame at all :lol1: Pacquiao has to be one of the most coddled ATG in the history of boxing. One fan said he could lose ten times in a row and it wouldn’t matter.
