Would size(weight) be a big factor in Pacquiao-JMM III?

[fabie]

I've always believed in CATCHWEIGHT...because it is an agreed compromise between the two. And if both fighters "can meet in the middle of their comfortable weight" then we would have a relatively "fairer" fight.

I would say 140.

[Hi-Dro]

lol at patards saying no

so Mayweather making JMM move up two weight divisions was wrong, but it's okay if Pac does it because they're the same height?

Ya'll some nuthuggers...

this is another cherry pick by Pac. Of course the weight plays a role. Didn't you guys see Marquez's body composition against Mayweather? He was bloated, and didn't look like the Marquez Pac fought at 130 from a physical perspective. It will be better than Pac's last couple of fights, but they picked him at the right time

[IronDanHamza]

In a word; Yes.

[tredh]

What do mean by factual? Of course its unofficial but the fact HBO displayed it on live tv viewed by millions of people around world, it must be factual and not like the HBO just made that up for fun. They have their own weighing machine although its unofficial. If my memory serves me right. Floyd refused the HBO to be weighed in fight night against Marquez.

WOW!!!!!!!!

[Paclan]

size is always a factor in every fight

this should be at 135

[FINCHINGBAG]

Why is it weight a factor?

Packy fought many times in a handicap weight --- winning all the time.

How about the fact that Mayweather got clipped with some really clean shots, only to laugh them off? On the other hand, will Marquez's punches be that effective against Manny? In their two fights we watched Marquez constantly snap Pacquiao's head back with counters, you honestly think he's capable of doing the same now? I doubt it man.

I don't think Pacquiao is gonna respect Marquez's power, not at this weight.

Even at 135 Manny was real sturdy as he want draining himself to make 130. I think he has to work some but not nearly as hard to make 135 as he is usually 141-142 the morning of the fight w/o trying to cut weight during any point in his training camp. I bring this up because outside of being drained, Marquez power isn't going to phase Manny when you consider he has take shots from Marg Cotto Clottey and Hatton (who are all bigger punchers than Marquez).

Of course weight is going to be an issue, its a reason why there are weight divisions in boxing. Idiots in here think that muscle weight vs fat weight vs water weight give you the same type of benefit. Hilarious.

[Pacquiao'd]

*******s will say no but everyone else agree that it will. or else pac would fight him at 40 which he claims he can easily make which i doubt

[ModernTalking]

Yes...PAC will outweigh Marquez by 15 plus pounds.
