Damn how else does he get to 175 in between fights
But seriously now, itll be a tough fight for both. May the best man win.
well he walks into the ring at 155 so putting on 20lb is hardly mindblowing. I would think most people are at least 20 heavier than their absolute peak physical weight.
Seriously though a close hard fight would be the best thing for boxing and like you say let the best man win.
Not only that but all pac great wins at 130 where against sub 130 fighters, so in that respect he's not proven against 130lbers either.
Not to take any credit from Pac, they are awesome wins against great opposition but Barerra, Morales, Solis, Jmm and Larios are not super featherweights no matter what weight those fight may have took place at.
Morales had been at Super-Featherweight for 5 fights before he fought Pacquiao. He was well and truly a Super-Featherweight by then. The weight he started at is irrelevant, Pacquiao won his first world title at Flyweight, but he's not a Flyweight now.
Solis had been at Super-Featherweight for 4 fights before fighting Pac.
JMM had been at Super-Featherweight for 2 fights and had beaten Barrera and Juarez, so had well and truly proved himself at the weight.
Those three at least were genuine Super-Featherweights when they fought him, and proven at the weight.
