    Im not a pac fan, but what are you talking about? What about Henry Armstrong or Sugar Ray Robinson? They fought guys 2 divisons heavier, if he wins good for him, shows how great he is.

        I think Pac and his team are being very cautious with the Milk Shakes. In his last couple of fights he looked a whole lot fuller, pumped, buffed. It actually would show on the scales. Now he looks like he could easily dominate the 140lb weight class.

        With that said, I believe he will be even faster. He will be a better Paquiao than before. Against the bigger, yet SLOWEST opponent he has ever faced. Pac is going to make Cheeto look like Lurch, he's gonna make him look real ******.

          his team wanted him to put on some more weight.

          pac didn't want it.

          he says he feels sluggish when he fights that high.

          his team really can't do anything about it. if a guy tells you he feels sluggish at that weight , you have to go with what he says.

                Yep, spot on..

                With that said, Pac aimed for speed in this fight he's also going to throw them hatton bombs, this doesn't change anything. Pac will come in their with blazing hand speed and accuracy. Marg won't know what hit him.

                    i don't know , just to see if he can get it?

                    why did armstrong go for a 160 title when he weighed 140?

                    why did robinson go for a 175 title when he weighed 160?

                    just a little extra for the resume.

                      I may be wrong but Margarito doesn't look drained to me. He looks the way he always does when well prepared. In fact, it looks like he's going to put on some good weight overnight and will have a size advantage on the 145lb Pacquiao. Huge plus in his favor. However, there is still the question of his chin. I know he needed to get some rounds in but I still don't like his decision to stick and move against Garcia. He could've gotten the same work in the trenches and sharpening those skills. Garcia wasn't going anywhere anyway and he would've gotten his rounds in. Maybe there is some doubt in his mind, maybe his chin is showing the wear of countless wars.

                      We'll see on fight night. Pacquiao doesn't look as cut as we're used to seeing but there's a reason for that. While he wanted to retain speed, he couldn't be too light. Looks like something was off with Ariza's program and Pac's idealogy. We're getting the mix of a fighter who has maintained a steady weight but might be too small. But he's going to have the energy on fight night - and Margarito's defense will give him plenty of opportunities to fire away. If he can dent the bigger man (maybe early), he'll win in impressive fashion. If he can't, things get interesting. BTW, Rios looks like he should spend more time emulating Tony and stop trying to be a star.
