Pacquiao: ‘I’m small for a welterweight’

[Evol]

Excuses. Another way to duck Floyd as if he's not small himself

how can he duck floyd when floyd already issue the biggest duck in boxing history? i will not work with bob arum.

Manny needs to go back to 140.... I think that would be his best weight right now...

Same could be said for floyd,,, his power would be much better at 140...

floyd and manny both get alot of flack for not scoring any recent ko's, but they are up in weight and hardly cut anything.. It would be like GGG going to 175, his power wouldnt be the same... Floyd and manny at 140 would knock guys outs, no doubt

151lbs

He was 151lbs last Saturday. It's the most he's weighed in on fight night since his historic run. He normally weighs 150lbs, exact.

good point but I doubt floyd could make 140 anymore.

why not isnt floyd a small WW or so the floyd fans say...

The fact floyd is a small ww has no bearing on whether he can make 140 llbs on the scales or not.

well judging by the weight difference, 7lbs, its either he's a small ww or not LOL..

I think he could make it,,, It would be harder work for him, than it would be for manny, but i think floyd could make and rehydrate back to 148is on fight night.. But the key to floyd's success and longevity has been that he is always really close to the weight he fights at,, He never puts on 10+ pounds like other guys do overnight,, if he cut to 140, he would be one of the guys gaining 10 pounds overnight, Floyd really hasnt ever done that in his whole career that im aware of... Manny on the other hand use to pack it on when he was at feather and superfeather if memory serves correct....

you don't seem too interested in the discusson-you want to bash anyone who thinks floyd is a small ww for reasons I am not sure of.

Interesting points. Yes, he has always seemed to fight around his weight. Despite his father saying he could, I just don't see it.

It would be very interesting if he were able to make 140 and fight Danny for the lineal JWW title.
