    Does Mayweather just not have the power at 147?

    Most of this forum claimed that Mayweather would KO Judah. He hit

    Judah would many solid shots. I know Judah doesn't have the

    greatest chin but do you think Mayweather just doenst have power at

    147?

    I know he only fought 2 fights at welterweight but just wondering

    Saturday night didn't show his true power cause he was strictly going on outboxing him the whole night once he saw Judah doing good in the first 4. He never fired more than 3 at once, he kept sticking to his right straight so we can't judge his power just yet.

        It would be hard to judge from that fight.

        @ 147 He hit Sharmba with a nice bodyshot that looked just as good as his body shots at lower weights.In the Zab fight,The 10th might of just completely taken out of his gameplan though,in the 11th he didnt establish his dominance like he had been up to that point,and he practicaly gave the 12th round away.Floyd said later that Judah was ready to go before what happened in the 10th,and Judah did look it,so it could have conceivably happened,maybe at least a KD.

          I think he was a fair chance of stopping Judah late, until Zab decided his best chance of survival was to thump PBF in the cods.

            mayweather does not hit hard he never will..he works at it so hard yet zab punched so much harder he had to transform into a roy jones type pot shotter to win the fight if zab had the longer arms or wasn't so one dimensional he would of beat mayweather. now I know mayweather is overrated he's just a work out warrior. his right hand is so weak compared to his left he must be converted and write left handed... after this performance noway is he #1 p4p I think think tarver should be the man never really lost except when he broke his jaw...zab was never hurt and hopkins hurt taylor worse then floyd hurt zab..if tarver destroys hokinx he should be #1

              I dont know who is the guy that thinks Gatti is a good fighter he is a C fighter at best he will never be in the same breath as Mayweather he can only look good against other SLOW C fighters IM tired of people pumping the Gatti & Hattons up like they are good when in reality they are C fighters at beat even ZAB JUDAH would beat both Fighters dont get too happy about a FIghter like Gatti he has heart but thats it

                What are you talking about? The question is about Floyd's power.

                  Judah was ripped by almost everyone coz he had a weak chin. but in the PBF fight he showed he can take punches. there were several punches landed by PBF that could of put him on the floor, but he stayed up and didnt even look like going down at any point in the fight.

                    PBF has done this before at lower weights, sometimes he doesn't stop the so called bad chins, then he goes stops guys with great chin, Chavez is one example.

                    He has power, but he has problems with his hands, that's why he uses the biggest gloves I've ever seen on a boxer, you lose some power with those big soft gloves.
