    I don't know. On fight night, Manny is usually in the low 150's. He was 150 and 151 for the Bradley fights, and 152 for the Mayweather fight.

      Manny has a warrior spirit.
      I think it's going to take going out on his shield to make him retire.
      Good or bad it is what he's going to do.
      I fully respect whoever he decides to fight next.
      Were all very privaliged being able to watch this ATG fight.
      Great post!

        If he defeats Spence he will one up MayIVeather F U R T H E R on the Legacy game.

        Pacquiao's fighting these top guys to fish out that red-handed juicer.

            I can believe that. I'm just saying Pac is probably not as small as you may think. He likely walks around in the low 150's.

              I love Manny. My favorite fighter of all time but please, fight some bum in the Philippines.



              No Spence!

                He's trying his luck. He was damn near blinded by Broner of all people. Every fight you're rolling the dice. He's fortunate to have his health, with all the punishment he has taken.

                Unfortunately for him I don't think he'll have much of a choice in his opponents. He's definitely gonna have expectations with this PBC deal.

                  Why? Everyone keeps saying Manny deserves to go out with a big payday, they also say Manny beat Horn the first time, so surely he should be able to beat him the second time for an EASY payday...right?

                  I keep hearing guys talk about Manny facing Floyd (same outcome as the first), Thurman (Manny getting outboxed), Spence (Manny getting stopped), Porter (Manny getting bullied and headbutted), etc.

                  Why take those risks when The Hornet is apparently easy work and an easy payday?

                    We can give that 'W' to Horn already. That was an ugly fight (if you consider that a boxing match) let's face it. Pac will struggle against that kind of fighter because (1) he's small and (2) Pac has no wrestling background/knowledge, unlike most American boxers. Plus the referee didn't help either for all those dirty tactics implemented, which Pac isn't good in handling either based on the past, ie Hussein, Sanchez.

                    Nobody wants to see them fight again, unless your Horn fan or a Pac hater.

                      Then why do people want to see him face Shawn MF'n Porter who is nothing more than a refined version of The Hornet?

                      Why were and ARE people ok with Manny facing Chino Maidana, who arguably is worse than Horn?

                      That's the hypocrisy I'm talking about.
