Yes, Manny Pacquiao is fighting now @147 BUT he keeps weighing 143-144 at the weigh in and without exceeding 148 the day of the fight.....
Normal welters...even junior welters will go up in weight to 155, 156....160 pounds...Pacquiao is not a normal welter.
If he had gone up to those weights without losing speed, then, surely there is something strange.
