      did pacquaio grow between the algieiri fight and the floyd fight?

      becayse he was 143 lbs against algieri, six months before the floyd fight.



      not sure why you guys can't just admit that floyd is bigger than manny. manny was a 112 lber ffs . during most of their careers they were several weight classes apart.
      You can take it or leave it. I'm just mentioning what he said, and I don't see any reason for him to lie about it. They claimed he was afraid of the man for years, so I don't think he needs to add extra fluff to the victory.

      They never appeared to be that far apart in weight at the same age to me. Wasn't there some kind of image that showed they basically began at the same weight (at the same age) and were similar in weight going up? Not sure about that but thought I saw it somewhere.

      You really believe Pacquiao fought at less than the welterweight limit during the Mayweather fight? He weighed in at 145 and didn't rehydrate 2 lbs?

        I find that really bizarre, as well. Floyd himself said multiple times before the fight that he's the bigger guy and a big welterweight. Yet his fans act like he's some blown up SFW.

          Why the F would some guy who can weigh in at 147 come in at 145, just so he can hydrate over 2lb the next day.

          Use your head.

            Ahemmmm....

            Justin Fortune wants Manny to rehydrate to 151 or 152:
            "Fortune wants the eight-division world champion to check in at 147 Friday and climb to 151 or 152 come Saturday."

            Manny reportedly weighed 152 on fight night:
            Pacquiao weighs 152 tonight, even though he weighed in at 145 on Friday.

            10:52 p.m.

            Fight is about to begin -- apparently Pacquiao hyrdrated to 7 pounds more than his weigh-in yesterday, so he will fight at 152 pounds after weighing in at 145 yesterday.

            http://www.gulflive.com/sports/index...ny_pacq_6.html

            Manny weighed 151 fight night for Bradley:
            Minutes earlier, Pacquiao (who weighed in officially at 145) had registered 151 pounds.
            A Hurting Sport marks the tenth annual volume of Thomas Hauser’s boxing articles to be published by the University of Arkansas Press. Every year, readers, sportswriters, and critics alike look forward to these collections. In 2014, Booklist observed, “This annual series detailing the year in boxing should be a highlight, not only for fans of the sport but also for those who appreciate journalistic acumen and stylish prose.” Other sportswriters have called Hauser “the dean of fightwriters” (TheSweetScience.com) and “our craft’s most celebrated practitioner” (15Rounds.com). His readers call him one of the last real champions in boxing and one of the very best who has ever written about this sport. A Hurting Sport continues this tradition of excellence with a behind-the-scenes recounting of 2014’s biggest fights, a look at Floyd Mayweather’s conduct in and out of the ring, analysis of fight impresario Al Haymon’s burgeoning empire, and much more.

                      manny pacquiao was never a welterweight, especially when he was at is best best around 2009. weighed 138 for hatton, ffs. weigned 142 against de la hoya. 144 against margarito. 143 against marquez. 143 vs algieri.


                      he's not a welterweight, man.

                      floyd was allegedly seriously dehydrated to make 147 to fight manny. so he is a welterweight.


                      so he was fighting a smaller guy. can't see why you can't understnad that. manny fought at WW for the money, not becuse he couldn't fight at 140 lbs. he was 138 lbs against hatton ffs, which was at the peak of the floyd - manny feud. when floyd was in horrid IRS debt he missed weight against marquez, and it cost him well over half a million bucks. hatton - pacquiao and marquez - mayweather were only around 4 months apart.


                      these guys are not the same size. get that through your head, larrbear!
                      Huh. Manny weighed at welter in 4 of the 5 fights you listed? Last I checked welter was 141-147.

                      I'll go check since its been decades since I had to check that
