I didn't say who benefits. I said "who's at a disadvantage?" The 147 champ fightin the 140 champ at 144 for the 147 strap?? How does that not benefit Algeiri breh?? Only way it benefits Pac is if he's really gonna move down to 140 after this fight
This makes no sense, because if it DIDNT benefit Pacquiao, he (and his camp) wouldnt have insisted on the fight being no higher than 144
Chris Algieri is 5'10 and if he was able to weigh in at 147, he would then come in much larger on fight night after rehydrating then he normally does on fight night at 140....which would help him be stronger and take Pacquiao's punches better. He would be much bigger than he normally is in the ring.
How could you not see that?
Algieir is the naturally larger man, not Pacquiao....the catchweight benefits Manny not Chris, which is why Manny wouldnt budge on the catchweight even though Chris wanted to fight at the 147 limit
