Comments Thread For: Photos: Pacquiao in Top Form, Ripped - 9 Days Out!

[Spoon23]

Here is one of both within the week. Also if your going to call out one strength coach at least be fair and call out both manny current strength coach is a known roid user

You can tell on those 2 pics alone, floyd is coming in top heavy and going for KO, Pac is going for speed, which means Pac will be nimble in his feet and hands.

While, Floyd obviously is trading a little bit of his speed for power.. Floyd must have forgotten that to beat a fast fighter you must be fast too. sacrificing speed is a no no in my book.

Floyd looking heavy will be his demise. This will be a an easy target for Pac, a slower brawny floyd isn't the way to do it. PAc will blitz this big tub of lard full of hamburgers.

Floyd's hands alone looks heavy, just lifting that before throwing will burn unnecessary energy lol wrong game plan floyd. Your in trouble.

Doesn't even look close to how he did when he beat De la Hoya, Cotto, and Margaritto. Ripped...Yes; Muscular, veiny and ripped like in the past...no. Someone needs his power pallets again! That little bastard used to look like he just stepped off a Mr. Olympia stage at weigh-in.....a big difference.

lol who's with memo btw?

anyway,he looks ripped as you said.

that's all that matters.

I think Pacquiao looks good at this stage. Hopefully neither fighter has peaked too quickly.

I'm not gonna look too much into what these guys look like before the fight. A lot of it doesn't mean too much when you think about it.

He looks unhealthy

I want to see a competetive fight but every picture I see of Pac looking "ripped" and "ready" he looks old and skinnier than ever before. I don't see the toned muscles from past fights when he's 1 month-10 days out of the fight. I hope to see him in better shape a the weigh in. Looks like Floyd is going to look like the much bigger and more muscular of the two on fight night, despite them probably being like 2-3lbs apart at most. The 2 inch height difference coupled with Floyd's broader shoulders and more toned body is going to make him look much bigger than he is in front of Pac in the ring.

nah, look at his legs.

Pac's legs >>>>May's bulk upper body.

Looks good. Bit too bulky though.

May compromise speed and stamina, probably looking for the knockout now that Pac's chin is cracked. It's his best bet.

You actually think mayweather looked good in that picture? You didn't see all that extra fat around his midsection that he doesn't usually have? Manny looks the same as he has for the past ten years, ripped to shreds while mayweather looks like he's carrying around ten extra pounds of fat. Your right that the Ko is his best bet but if he cant Ko pacquiao he will be in serious trouble carrying the extra weight around. It will only serve to slow him down. He definitely gained weight but its all in fat. He would have been much better off if he could shave that extra fat off before the fight which I doubt he will do because its almost time for them to just maintain their conditioning until fight night. Unless he plans to train until the day of the fight I dont see that weight coming off.

You have absolutely no idea what your talking about. He has weighed about 148 on fight night every single fight going all the way back to the de la Hoya fight. He looks the exact same and is just as ripped. I looked up pictures of every weigh in I could find and he looks the same at the weigh ins at every welterweight fight he has had. That just proves that the ped accusations were a bunch of b.s. I challenge you to go look at pictures of his weigh in for the cotto fight and post a picture in here of one that shows he was more muscular for that weigh in than he is in this picture. If anything he is more ripped now than he was for the cotto weigh in

[jjsmyth87]

I'm fact I encourage everyone to go look at weigh in pictures for the cotto fight and the algieri fight. Pacquiao is definitely more ripped now and for the algieri fights than he was during the cotto weigh in. I challenge anyone to post a picture of the cotto weigh in that shows him being more ripped than he is here or for the algieri weigh in. I'm waiting....

No surprise. Pacquiao is always in top form.
