Are Pacquiao and Mayweather the same size?

[ßringer]

Well at least 15% of the voters so far got it right.

[QUISQUEYA]

They're the same size. May is an inch taller. Pac carries his weight in his legs.

[Pullcounter]

mayweather's weight in his last three fights: 146, 150, 148.

pacquiao's weights in his last three fights: 144, 146, 147

Yeah... MASSIVE difference

its not all about weight... floyd has longer arms and is taller than pac... also i think floyd is stronger and has fought at higher weights longer.

[larryx]

floyd walks around at 150-160//pacman walks around at 150-160//pacman is 5-6//floyd 5-7///whats the point of this thread..i hope its not 2 say its an unfair fight..when people say floyd is ducking margo who's 5-11 and walks around at 180 minimum!!!!

Floyd Mayweather is MUCH bigger than Pacquiao.

That's why Mayweather started at 130, and Manny started at 106.

floyds a bit bigger, floyd at 147 didnt look that much smaller than Oscar at 150-154..

Size difference isn't huge, but mayweather is def a bit bigger. Pacquiao is very stocky though and strong.

Manny was 16 when he was at 106. When Mayweather was 16, he was fighting at 106 too...

Mayweather is a little bit bigger, but the size difference is not that different. Size and weight issues are overrated imo. The only reason I mentioned Pacquiao-DLH was because I thought it was to much of a difference. I, obviously, was wrong and it proves my point further.

I thought Mayweather was at 112 when he was 16? Pacquiao fought at 106..but he actually used metal plates to make weight..he was actually around 98 lbs lol.

Mayweather is also taller, has more reach..and looked similar to de la hoyas size when they fought..and that was above 147...

[J.R.]

Floyd is bigger of course, ridiculous question to ask. But not by mouch. Floyd is a small welterweight while Manny pac is a ****ing tiny one that really shouldn't be fighting in that division.. but say you make a fight between them at a weltweight catchweight or at 140 and you have a fairly even playing field, size wise.

Close enough, but keep in mind that Mayweather weighed 112 in the amateurs, where you aren't able to blow up weight. Pacquiao weighed in with weights apperently, but he was still a growing weight. The weight difference is useless because Pacquiao has shown he can clearly beat people who weigh more then him. They both rehydrate to the same weight on fight night anyway

Height is minimal. Pacquiao is 5'6 and a half and Mayweather is 5'8. Manny Pacquiao has a 67 inch reach, while Mayweather has a 72 inch reach. Pacquiao, once again, shows he can get past that reach. Morales has the same reach as Mayweather.

Mayweather "looked" De La Hoya's size because De La Hoya crouches down when he fights, but De La Hoya was clearly the bigger man. De La Hoya dehydrated to 160ish come fight night, Mayweather lost two pounds to be 148!

The size is not an excuse for Pacquiao at all. Oh by the way, Miguel Cotto is an inch shorter then PBF and has Pacquiao's reach. Where was the "Cotto's to small to fight him" for that fight? Where was the "size" outcry for Margarito-Cotto?
