    The lowest weight class in Mixed Martial Arts is 140 pounds. Guys who walk around at 170 or 180 bleed themselves just to make that limit.

    Pac would get picked up and broken like a Bo Jackson baseball bat.
    I knew it! There is no weight class for Pac.

      Showtime's MMA has a weight class for 130 or 135, I think.

          Yeah....hence why Pac mentioned that he has to learn it first. Duh.

            Ey? Elite EX I wasn't aware had that weight class. Although let's remember it's only a couple of months old the organization is.

            Even if this was feasible and whatnot, it doesn't make any sense to me. Manny is the third best fighter in boxing in my opinion. That being stated why in the hell would he possibly want to leave boxing for a sport where he's going to be underpaid and underappreciated? Beats me.

            Plus he won't get to fight JMM in a rematch Goddamit.

              ya bro they have a 135 pound weight class in the WEC saw it on versus channel those cats are fast as ****.
              bantamweight i believe and then they have the 145 with feathers on WEC.

              I think of all the boxers Pacquiaos Boxing Style would transition better then a jmm,barrera, morales etc only because he is explosive and his style is not boxing more like super fast slugging with straight power shots down the middle...Pacman would be a Sprawl and Brawl guy.

              I am trying to look for that interivew with pics and video he had where he was training muay thai or yaw yan something like that filipino kickboxing.. I never knew pacman can kick and knee so hard and high. The guy is amazingly flexible he can do the splits so that would help with jiu jitsu.

              But like you said why would he leave boxing when he is making huge money compared to the guys in mma...pacman gets paid more then the biggest MMA star.

                    APPARENTLY none of you guys have seen this...

                    Those raps probably weigh a little less then the UFC gloves, so he would in actuality HAVE that handspeed.

                    Even if he didnt learn the useless MMA crap, he'd still kick the **** out of anybody in that sport

                      In MMA it is easy to avoid trading punches, you either shoot for a takedown or keep out of range with kicks.

                      The only time a guy gets knocked out by a punch is if he's there to be hit and is trying to trade punches himself or he is so dazed that he is finished with punches.

                      Pacman would kill any MMA guy in boxing, but to say he would win in MMA is crazy even with training...its too easy to take his advantages away from him.
