Pacquiao Looking Stronger Than When He Fought Hatton

[madsweeney]

OK, i get what you are saying. BUT in ONE WEEK, someone to get THAT stong as these people are saying? as if he got twice as strong or something than the previous fight. To me that's IMPOSSIBLE!!

Who said anything about twice as strong?!? Seriously you guys are reading into this way too much. He probably feels good after some rest and is ready for a fight. Tell me, do you feel stronger when your relaxed or pumped?!?

Pac is always in shape and comming into the camp and not having to lose so much weight might contribute for him feeling stronger. Question is if 145lb is really his best fighting weight cause all the cardio involved. Muscle mass doesn't help boxers. Looking foward to a great fight

40 Days and nights till showtime

In that case, we should be expecting a mammoth flood.........of "prognostications"!

I think 145 is perfect for him as its so close to his walking weight. No weight cutting = healthier, stronger, faster. If Pac's genetics are at all like mine (my family is from same region) the bulking is very minimal and speed isn't affected as much. Taking his genetics and how he works out he'd be building more aerobic fast twitch muscle...you know the fast/endurance stuff!

YEAh RIGHT Ronnie u Prick!! We will see when a 160lb. cotto hits him!!

[edgarg]

barrera was prime hatton was prime. and the fighters that were past prime he totally destroyed and showed how its done. when has cotto ever done this?

Actually they were NOT prime. Hatton has never recovered from ramming his head into the ring post and knocking huimself unconscious.

Barrera had a huge mileage on him, and was easily on the downslide.

Just my opinion.

Wouldn't surprise me if Pac came in @ 153-155 fight night.

Pacquiao needs to pressure Cotto. At no point in the fight should he let Cotto back him up.

It would for me. You're basically saying Pac rehydrating all the way up to his natural weight which is rare for most boxers. Pacquiao just said recently he weighed 153. He's likely coming in the fight at 148-150.
