Along the way, the Pacman has gobbled up his opponents with his lightning speed quickness, cat-like reflexes and brute strength with eight of those fights ending by way of knockout; a testament to his power.
It’s also amazing to know that in the process, he has won titles in a record seven weight divisions from 112 to 147 pounds beating men bigger and taller than him.
