    He did a lot of winning. One thing he didn’t do is lose or get KTFO.

      It depends on how the rules with weigh ins go this way or that way.

      But I think its doable & even surpassable, but the tiny sample size of guys who'll weigh so lil & be able to grow later on + are good enough is so small that luck or unluckiness will play into when it happens again.

      Relevant as well is who's promoting this cat capable of it. If you are this next Manny guy & are promotee by Roc Nation you are never gonna get there.

      So its 100% possible, but a lot of sh^t needs to line up to make for the perfect storm of duplicating Manny's achievement or going past it.
      This might come across bias, being a Scotsman, but Lee Mcgregor has a chance to go through from 118 right up to Welterweight IMO. He's 21, 5'7 1/2 and will be pushed aggressively like Josh Taylor has. He is the perfect size and age to go up through the divisions during his 20's.

      there might be other examples I'm not aware of, but you need to start off young in the lower divisions and be at least Pacquaios height to go through 8 divisions.

        Nope, won't be done again.

        And Pacquiao skipped couple weight classes too

        For it to happen some kid will have to win a world title before he is 18, then he will have some natural growth


        Amazing that Pacquiao was grew in size by 50% in his career.

          Manny was unique, but the title he won from Marg was vacant and contested at a C-W.

          It was a great win considering the huge disparity in size, but he should never have been officially classed as a JMW champion.

          That is a prime example of what's wrong with boxing today.

            What division would Floyd have had to have won a title in to have become an 8 division champ?

            They didn't start out at the same weights.

            Everyone has a limit.

                    McGregor is woefully bad. But at least you gave the white fighter some credit for once.

                    Manfredy, Berto, Augustus, McGregor being HOF is comedy gold. Combine all four careers and you still wouldn't even get a fighter considered even for the ballot.
