      Most likely stamina, the weight gain is not big enough to affect his speed. His power might likely stay the same or maybe even increase, it's just Oscar is not a smallish lightweight, so the effect of Manny's punch might be lessened.

        The 3 of them. Stamina and speed for sure. And his movement too. He now have to move in a heavier body. And his power will be affect a lot too. Perfect example Tito moving up from 160 and fighting at 170. He didnt look Powerfull at all. Pacquiao will look as feather fisted at 147 as Malignaggi does at 140!!!!!!

            His movement round the ring, plus being in with a rangy welterweight like Oscar may make him look short armed in comparision!

              I agree. Fighting someone so much bigger than any other opponent will wear him down. Like Edwin Valero said, he'll be wearing his tongue like a necktie in the later rounds.

                Impossible to know. We will all just have to wait and see on Saturday. Weight gain effects people in many different ways, some things can be better, some things may be worse.

                    from the way he conducts his workouts and sparring, definitely not stamina. spped? we'll see but if there's any decrease it would be very unnoticable. his power WILL go up.
