Manny Pacquiao presented with lucrative, high-stakes fights at 135 pounds

[Zaroku]

Pac should fight at his natural weight class which is 135lbs.

He should fight Loma, or if he has the nads, fight Spence.

[BoxingIsGreat]

yep

manny is 40 and has been fighting at welterweight for 10 years

Can he even make 140 let alone 135

The bold: Agreed. He'd be dead to make 140.

There's a reason the guy's been fighting at welter for almost a decade. He might need to go to 154 if he continues. Pac isn't small at all. Save the fairy tales.

Lol no

Lomachenko didn't want it back then

Why would he want it now after what happened to Thurman

Pacman gunna put Loma in matrix

[andocom]

What a bizarre article. Loma isn't undefeated, Pac who fights at 147 should fight Mikey whos last fight was at 147 (and said he wants to stay there) should fight, and they should fight at 135?

What is this insanity, not 140, not 147, but 135? Why? Why would two 147s both drop two weight classes to fight each other, so they can both be drained to death? At least with Loma I guess there is a reason, 135 is pretty much his max, but if they were to fight 140 would be fairer, I think Loma destroys Pac at 135 because he would be at deaths door making the weight.

Manny Pacquiao is the only boxer I'm aware of who needs to eat 7 times a day to make 147

If he start eating 3 times a day like a normal human being would, his weight would return to 135.

I understand your situation. Loma should be protected

The eating 7 times a day comes from years ago when they were talking about Pacquiao training. 7 smaller meals a day to keep his energy up. Pac fans took that as Pacquiao having to eat 7 big mac meals a day to stay at 147.

At his age, and after all he has accomplished in and out of the ring, I wonder if he would even have the will to drop those seven pounds and still feel whole at a weight he hasn't been at for years.

You clearly dont know sht

After training camp, Manny's weight becomes 140 and maybe even less depending how intense the training was.

This dude has to EAT before the weigh in to look like a welterweight!

I've been telling everybody Pacman is bloated lightweight!

For one, I said if Loma & Pac fought I thought it should be at 140 to be fairer to both.

Pac's last 135 fight was what, over 10 years ago?

Yeah I'm sure at 40 and not having been at 135 for a decade Pac really struggles to keep the weight on, that happens all the time. In your world do fighters generally move down in weight divisions as they age over time?

Everyone's weight drops training. They burn energy and lose water through sweating. You think that only happens to Pacquiao?
