Now some time has passed.. Your final vote on Pac's refusal...

Of course you can. You just need to adapt the nutrition to surpass the energy requirements. Because Pacquio's enery requirements are so high, his nutritional needs will also be high - around 8,000 calories per day in his case, which is similar to Michael Phelps by the way - another extremely lean top level athlete.

The fact that he was fighting at Bantamweight doesn't actually have anything to do with that being his natural weight. It's very possible that as a younger fighter he was under-nutritioned or malnourished in an athletic sense. You can bet your bottom dollar he didn't have a 8,000 calorie a day plan when he was in his early 20's.

its highly unlikely he is eating 8000 calories a day dude, where are you getting your information from

i started a thread on a bodybuilding forum

eating 8000 calories a day and adding lean muscle - UK-Muscle Body Building Community - Bodybuilding Forum

yes these are just random people, who could know nothing but they are also people who dedicate themselves to bodybuilding and nutrician and are constantly looking for ways to gain muscle (lean or not)
