Comments Thread For: Pacquiao Thinks Canelo Might Be a Step Too Far in Size

[richardt]

yeah, margaritos size nearly ruined the elf (his hands at least).

When Pac was hurt to the body, he knew the size difference was too much.

it was certainly a paralyzing blow.

(btw, pac was a 100-1 favorite)

Its hard to beat bigger fighters when you're not on roids

Proof he was on roids or are you just making **** up?

[aboutfkntime]

No, it took Pac realizing that he cant be fighting guys that could come into the ring at over 160 like Margarito, let alone 174 like Canelo. Has nothing to do with a "specific type of fighter".

actually, they stated before the fight that Manny would not defend the title if he won, and that JMW was too high for Pac

The bodyshot paralized manny for three days. It caused him to be in a fetal position in the hospital unable to move his body other than his arms. He wasn't sure what he was going to do with his career at that moment.

Wow...a Champion being honest and realistic. Manny is from a different planet than all these guys who challenge GGG then fight Andre Berto or Kovalev.

Was that supposed to be an example of someone going down in quality of opposition? Because if so.... it was a very bad one.

He's right on that one, Canelo is too big, Pac can make 140 easily.

[champion4ever]

Had this fight have occurred some three to four years ago, even at a catch weight of a 150 lb, then Manny would have been the odds on favorite but now he has slowed down so noticeably to the point where Canelo can take him.

[hectari]

154 is way too big for him, he capped off at 140, but 147 he is pushing his luck, he gets hit way too much he is older and slower.

He was able to use speed against Margarito something he no longer has.

Plus I like that Pac knows his limit, no need in Canelo feasting on some little guys anymore.
