Pac vs JMM 2 130lb fight, he weighed 145lbs in the ring.*
Pac vs Diaz 135lb fight, he weighed 147lbs in the ring.**
Pac vs ODLH 145lb fight, he weighed 148.5lbs in the ring.**
The weight class changes in subsequent fights seemed drastic but in reality, he was hardly changing in weight and just pushing up the amount he was weighing in at closer to his walking around weight.

When people say he came up from flyweight, you have to remember that Pac turned pro at a time where many other fighters would still be fighting in the amateurs. For comparison, at age 16 Pac was fighting professionally at 106 and at age 16 Floyd won the golden gloves at 106. But despite this, most people would not refer to Floyd as a blown up flyweight the way they do with Pac, because most don't talk that much about a fighter's amateur fights once their professional records get deep.Last edited by BrometheusBob.; 08-12-2015, 01:02 PM.Comment
