I think just coz one dominant performance at 140 it shouldnt mean that he should try and make the fight at that weight.

I just think Floyd being naturally the bigger man will gain more from it being at 147 than Manny will.

Drag Floyd down to 140 lbs and its a much closer fight imo, Floyd is having to give up something to meet Manny whereas at 147 Floyd gives up nothing and will have a few lbs natural weight advantage over Manny.
Floyd might be taller, but he sure doesn't look bigger than PAcquiao has of late. I don't think it matters where the fight is at except that Floyd might have a hard time going back down to 140 because he has put on muscle since then, and he isn't as young as he once was. IMO they should fight at 143ish, They would come into the ring at about the same size because Floyd never puts on more than 5 pounds, and even if he did it wouldn't be more than 7 so they would be like 2 pounds apart in weight.
