    Over trained?

    Or was it all those blood tests?

    Pac warned in the first negotiations that he is a small man and blood tests will make him even smaller. He was on to something.

      He looked like a monster against Oscar. And weighed more than him.

        One of the things I think is big and not being talked about is if Floyd makes weight.

        I thought he rehydrated way too much in the Maidana2 fight and looked really dry to start.

        I think he has a tough time making 147 now so I am very interested to see the weigh in.

          He did, but it doesn't change the fact Pac looked small, compared to his other WW fights were he had a wider fame. Look at the Cotto and Margarito fights, his body grew into the division. In the ODLH fight his speed was the fastest in WW coming up from 135, so maybe that's what there aiming for.

            A sled dog race with Manny and Floyd as the sled dogs? Sign me up for tickets.

              Ok. That size difference will be major.

                  if i remember right what he actually said was that the blood tests would affect him more, because he's smaller

                    I hope to high heaven Arum didn't rob him. Why wouldn't he get it all up front, he was contacted to make 80 mil.
                    There was a limit at the opening as to how many tickets would be available, but there's a "secondary market" after that time.

                    Arum robbing Pacquaio wouldn't surprise me - Mayweather has basically been on Pac's side in that regard.

                    They will both get paid again after the gate and PPV numbers are finalized.

                      Is there a way to find out what he's weighed in his WW fights? Off the top of my head, he usually comes in on the lighter side.
