    pac really should be fighting at 135. Spence, Ugas 154. Bud is really a 135 pound fighter.
    Some men can move up and do good. Some cant.
    Crawford can chop an arm off and still won't make 135lbs. The guy walks around 177lbs according to himself. He can fight at 160 and still look physically fit, e.g. not bloated.

Oscar Cotto Margarito the biggest fighters he faced and all 3 fought Pacquiao at Catchweight or moved down in weight. You’ve been on full damage control since he lost to a 35yr old pillow puncher. He’s not as great as you all claim. You love his fighting style and personality but that doesn’t mean anything in boxing it’s all about wins and losses. End thread!
      No price how he skipped over this because he know it’s the truth

        If Pac did what every other fighter does, then he would be trying to kill himself to make 135lbs and just fight guys his size there. And rehydrate to 147lbs like Castillo and Corrales did and how basically all Lightweights do.

        Fighting at 147 means he will usually just fight guys who are scared to do what he does: Fight guys way bigger than him.

        Pacquiao racked up a pretty damn good 147 resume considering that he was never fighting anyone his size barring Mayweather and JMM.

        Pacquiao, if he wanted to, could call all boxers cowards for refusing to fight in their walk around weight. And he would not be in the wrong for saying such. But he is too humble to be that honest.
        I agree with everything you said except about Mayweather. Weightwise, Floyd is bigger than Pacquiao.

            They are the same exact size. There is evidence for this everywhere. If the sky is blue, but you choose to say it’s actually green, that’s on you and that is not something I can argue about.

            If it snows in Alaska and you tell me it never snows there. I have my hands tied, I really can’t discuss that. You are shown proof in your face, but decide to burn the proof and make up your own facts, I have no argument.

            When Pacquiao was coming in at 145lbs in his 130lb fights, Floyd was coming in at 146lbs for his 147lb fights.

            I am not sure why you choose to go against facts, but like I said, that’s on you. Mayweather being 5’8” and Pacquiao being 5’6”, if that is what you are saying, then yes, Mayweather is taller.

            But Mayweather and Pacquiao are the same size. Neither of them come in the ring heavier than 150lbs.

              If he’s walking around at 177. He is just like Mikie Garcia and just wants a payday against Canelo. He is not built for that weight. I’m taller and weigh 170 and consider myself a fat slob compared to 20 years ago when I boxed.
              Sounds to me he’s given up on a legacy. Sad and a huge waste. Canelo will KILL HIM.

                He’s been at 147 for like a decade.

                  This is you in your second reply:

                  Durr durr durr durr durr durr, durr. durr durr durr. Durrr dur durrrrr durr.

                  I am one of the biggest Pacquiao haters on this forum. The ****** username that you have pathetically named yourself "Floyd is TBE", I am one of the biggest Floyd fans here and I do not even have to name myself after him like i'm his son or his wife or something.

                  Why are you naming yourself after another man like a damn cornball? Who does that? How old are you?

                  Given by your replies and your username, you're likely still a teenager.

                  Go ahead and come back with another "Durr durr durr".

                  You make Floyd fans look bad with your ******ity.
                  Can't even defend your own bull****.

                    You named yourself after another man like a little kid or a fangirl.

                    I would not even be surprised if you had a Floyd Mayweather tattoo on your ass cheeks.

                    Go ahead and change your username to Floyd's Wife. Go see if he is hiring males in his strip club and strip for him.

                    Pathetic.

                    Does your father know this?

                      But humble enough to give credit to Ugas. He has cramps, he didn't get hit in the body.
