He came, he fought, he will conquer.
The victory of Manny Pacquiao over David Diaz last month for the WBC Lightweight crown had rocked and shocked the world. He is now being considered as the pound-for-pound king in boxing. The Pacman will be defending his new title this year and will eye a possible fight in the 140-pound division, probably with Ricky Hatton. Do you think Pacquiao is ready to go up or will he stay on 135-pound and face the best fighters in the lightweight division?

i think he is ready because he is much comfortable, in the lightweight and jr. welterweight division.

Pacman is known to be a devil when in training. With the right training and a properly monitored diet, he will be competitive even at 140 lbs. He may not win them all, but it will never be a boring fight when he's in the ring, no matter who he's facing.

I think he can and he's ready to move up some pounds easily, he's in great shape at 140lbs I guess. Only that if he can maintain his speed after gaining would be more difficult for him.
Otherwise, if he maintained all his quickness, slow boxers might having a hard time against Pacquiao to knock him down.
