Oscar/Manny: How is 147 a disadvantage for Manny?

[krispy kreme]

What do you think De La Hoya will weigh unofficially at?

Probably around 160.

If he does, that will be yet another disadvantage for Pacman, unless he can fully utilize his speed and movement, and even then I don't think it will be a huge help.

[ferocity]

Pac asked for this fight, his fans asked for this fight and now they got to shut up and stop making excues for Pac. He got what he wanted and now his country is scared for his life, philipine boxing journalist should have let this fight go when Oscar laughed at the idea of fighting Pac, but Pac and his fans keep pressing Delahoya.

[ferocity]

Pac will probly come in at 152

why do yall make such big deals about size.....
the little man kan beat the big man....
rahman over lewis
tyson over berbick,pinklon,bruno etc etc
marquez over casamayor
floyd over chico
brewster over klitschko
bernard over tarver
barrett over tye fields LOL
quintana over williams

1) heavyweight over heavyweight
2) same
3) yawn the same
4) one weight class, 5 lbs above his last fight against a man who fought the majority of career at 130 or 135
5) against a man who fought most of his career at 130/135
6) dude why are stuck on heavyweights
7) bernard is no little dude LOL this is comedy
8) quintana has fought at 147 his entire career

dude honestly if you dont get it fine but

Manny started his career at 106, Oscar at 130 that right there is a 24lb starting gate advantage.

the bulk of Oscars career has been at 140 and above.....MANNY hasnt even fought above 140 yet

as mentioned, Oscar will weigh around 160-165 while Manny will probably be no more than 150 which is a weight advantage

Oscar is taller has a bigger frame and is more natural at this weight than Manny who again has never fought there

[Eaner0919]

Pac will probly come in at 152

which will be about 10lbs lighter than Oscar

yea...and Margarito didnt ask for that fight...nor did his fans or boxing fans in general...

i hear people arguing that pacquiao is way out of his class because of the weight (147) he is fighting at...someone with boxing experience or knowledge please explain to me how will he look any different (speed/power) than his last fight which was at 135 but Manny weighed in at 147 on fight night...

Soo Clottey weighs up to 170 on fight night are you insinuating he could hang with the guys at 175 or 168?

rahman over lewis Boths HW's same weight class
tyson over berbick,pinklon,bruno etc etc same as above ^^
marquez over casamayor moved up ONE weight class
floyd over chico One weight class
brewster over klitschko Same weight class
bernard over tarver 2 weight classes, Bernard is unique
barrett over tye fields LOL same weight class
quintana over williams same weight class

Just look above

theres a difference, like the kelly/bhop fight. its really different when you cut down to make make a certain weight vs. bulk up to fight in a way higher weight class.

if it was some bum, okay pacman has a great chance, but dhl aint a bum. hes an elite boxer with power. i can see pacman still doing well, but i personally cant see him winning.

stranger things have happened i guess but i wouldnt count in it.

But if Margarito got the fight, the Margarito fans wouldn't be scared for him. As Pac fans and his country men are afraid for Pacs life.
