Pac is a 140 pound fighter that moved up in weight to beat Cotto & DLH.
When people think that it's fishy that Pac from 130 pounds moved up to 147 so easily, the truth is, he didn't move up to 147 pounds.
Think about it, Manny doesn't fight at 147. He seems to favor 145. Come the day of the weigh in, Manny ate breakfast and had a snack before the weigh in took place and still he didn't make 145 pounds. He only got up to 144, and that's while being careless!
Why does he look so good doing it? Well you gotta remember that the guy has had 1.5 years (DLH - Cotto) to fit into a 147 (144) body and with good genetics + being in his prime + a GREAT coaching staff, I don't see why he can't bring his body up to 144.
He's a legendary 140 pound fighter that uses his body to it's full potential because of his training regime he doesn't have to make weight and therefore can be at his full potential come fight night.
The guy can train as much as he wants to in technique and building muscle (without giving a dam about putting on too much) because he doesn't have to strain himself to lose weight and considering Manny learns so fast and has some awesome genes for getting muscles, that's big.
