This article depicts the Pacquiao situation perfectly.

Some say he did, including Roach. His last few fights at 130 were hard to make, apparently, despite what reports said of "we'll make weight fine". Look at the pics of Manny back then:



Ain't exactly healthy looking. So yes, it's possible he was drained, whether that's what you want to hear or not.

So was Oscar drained?

[S A M U R A I]

I forgot to mention something about Pacquiao's history. Last time he was struggling to make weight (when he lost to Singsurat, 1999), he leapt up 3 divisions from 112 to 122.

So right there's an example of what I'm saying. Manny struggled in the past and moved up significantly once his body couldn't make Flyweight any longer.

Yeah, although it's not so straight-forward because he was already at WW for weeks before the fight, so it's not like the usual drain where a fighter has to cut the weight in a short period. Things even out slightly though, cause Pacquiao came up from 135 for that fight.

No worries man, no need to apologize cause nothing's personal on here.

Right, I hear you about Hatton, and it's a good point. I like to keep an open mind, tbh. Notice I never speak in absolutes about this, I'm just saying it's a possibility that he struggled to make 130 for his last fights at that weight. I wouldn't rule it out man, it's common, that's why a fighter moves up as his body changes (often around 29-30 -- Pacquiao's current age), but usually they'll rinse out what they can from a weight class first. Many don't realize it's a struggle until it happens though (Nate Campbell, for example). So I dunno, is there something unusual about Pacquiao struggling before moving up? He went from LWW to WW in a real short time, but his fight night weight has remained pretty consistent, only increasing by around 4-5 pounds since many years ago.

hell yeah .. i agree ..it is especially hard to make weight when you got your cornerman Buboy eating whatever the heck he wants at the dinner table ... im sure Cotto and Pacquiao have the same challenges in that department...fat friends pigging out while you are training

I was going to read it... Then I say Domi saying this...



So I figured it has to be a biased article so I won't waste my time.

Love you Domi. Jesus.

Read it.

I'm a fan of Mayweather and I don't read everything but knows how it goes.

And I agree... most things are complete BS about Pacquiao... but the same goes for Mayweather... it is what it is if you become the best in your sport... BS always comes along with it...

It's also a new trend of arguing that's really bad... because it hurts all... everybody is running an other guy in the ground just to let their favorite fighter look good... it's sad... but I guess the way it is today... I have no problem whatsoever with Pacquiao and Mayweather as well as their resume... both held up against the best of their time and against many greats... there is nothing that Pacquiao or Mayweather have to be ashamed off...

If a resume looks to your like nutthugging it must be that the resume is pretty damn good
