    to go to 135. He obviously has struggled to make weight,
    and you can see it in the weigh-in pics.

    Its gonna be tough in that division, but the new challenge
    is what he needs. No need to prove anything more at 130.
    Maybe he could prove he can beat some fighters who are real 130ers.
    Possibly someone on a winning streak.

      Manny doesn't have the hunger Katsidis does nowadays. He'll pull it off in in the later rounds as his stamina is nuts and he throws complete bombs. Manny isn't anywhere as hungry as he was back in the day. His main driving factor is his countrymen back home. He's set for life in money and his accomplishments thus far. Whereas Katsidis hasn't done much of anything yet, you can expect him as hungry as a lion to beat Manny in the long run. You can't say anything about Manny being stronger either as we have yet to witness him at 135lbs to make a statement like that. What we do know is that Manny loses power and speed each jump he makes.

        Pac has beaten the best guys at 130 really. There may be bigger-in-size fighters but that doesn't make 'em any more threatening than the guys Pac has already beaten at 130.

        I'm assuming you are referring to Joan Guzman with your post.

          Well the fact that a 135-ln champ couldnt even knockdown Morales is already a testament to Pac's power at 135. And really, Pac KOs Amonsot in the EARLY rounds (assuming he doesnt want to prolong the fight like in Larios or Solis).

            no no no ... not just yet ...

            business with jmm should be settled first...

            then fight winner of guzman vs sotto, then finish off with valero ...

            i want him to clean up the sfw first then fight the diazes at light weight...

              Pacman the best fw out there, which is a great task, but not exactly "not needing anything to prove at 130."

                There's plenty to do at both 130 and 135. And most people consider or considered JMM, Mab, and Morales to be the cream of the crop regardless of weight.

                I'd love to see Pac fight Valero and Guzman though.

                  Maybe Fake Floyd can start imitating what Pac is doing.

                  Fighting the best and beating the crap out of them.

                  Not run like a chicken from the Baldo's and old DLH.

                    PAC is not some Fake Floyd who jumps divisions then selects the Gatti's, Judah's and Baldo's avoiding the Margarito's, Casamayor's and Freitas'.

                    Pac should stay at 130 and clean up the division. Leave no pretender standing to challenge him.

                    After that, he can now move to 135 and fight the best there.

                      the poster above.

                      One of the reasons the ignore list is great.
