What fighters actually fight in there real weight class?

Yeah man Porter is huge, he had his first pro fight at like 165 or something yeah and I think he competed at a higher weight in the ams but he wasn't in the same sort of shape he's in now. I think 147 suits him very well and if he was to fight at a higher weight, he'd get beat up, he is way too small for any division higher than 147.

Cotto is actually fighting TWO divisions UP from where he SHOULD be fighting which is 147.

Porter is 5'6'', you think he walks around at 175lb? what, is he supposed to be morbidly obese? Yeah man Porter is huge, he had his first pro fight at like 165 or something

btw Garcia for the most part was a pretty legit junior welter, Loma looks good at his weight and natural and I think Khan has just found his natural weight class and yes I know he blows up between fights but with all that training you're going to naturally lose weight and 147lb hits the mark

Mayweather walks around at 160+ Thurman isn't that big man, that's a myth. He makes 147 easily. Porter on the other hand is probably the biggest welterweight in the top 10. He apparently walks around at 175+... Porter is 5'6'', you think he walks around at 175lb? what, is he supposed to be morbidly obese?

I don't know why anyone pays attention to what Truth says. He's a massive Thurman nuthugger, and says that Bradley and Danny Garcia are nothing special, when they're both FAR more proven than his hero Thurman. Man you really are obsessed with me. Wtf does this have to do with what I think about Thurman, Bradley and D.Garcia? Are you gonna bring that up on every thread I post on? How about you find something better to do with your life than stalk somebody around a boxing forum?

He had to have weighed more than 148...they weigh them in whatever they're wearing I believe. Whatever he was wearing had to weigh 2 pounds. So unless he didn't add ANY weight other than the clothes on his body, then that figure is off. What does OP mean by "real weight class" like they fight at welterweight, so they walk around at 147? if that's it, then only heavyweights. No one fights in the weight class which the walk around at. Even if only by a few pounds, it puts you over, because most guys come in at the limit. How does how much weight you put on afterwards make it natural? What if you walk around at 180 and fight at 140 but all the weight comes off during training and then you rehydrate to 144 on fight night? Is that natural? I don't know, If you eat like James Toney, I suppose you can call it natural :D If you fight at 140 and show up for the first day of training weighing 180, only one thing is for sure: you trainer is going to rip you a new one in the following weeks. :D

I don't know if they've been lying everytime, but he definitely weighed more than 148 against Maidana, so they got that wrong.

bradley is known to balloon up in weight in between fights. he fought at 152lbs in the amateurs and fought guys like angulo and ward. Yeah he ballooned up all the way to 152 his last fight.

so basically, your saying HBO and Showtime have been lying about mayweather's fight night weight for the last 8 years since he's been at welterweight? I don't know if they've been lying everytime, but he definitely weighed more than 148 against Maidana, so they got that wrong.

So in other words you have nothing aside from your "look at his abs doe" slogan. It's ok man, gotta hang onto something I guess:lol1:. Have a good night. There's really other way of knowing. But the evidence I've provided is sufficient, not my fault you're too :dunce: to understand it.

You can believe him, but don't start crying about me not believing him. The difference in abs in the pictures I posted suggest he put on more than 2/3 pounds after the weigh in, you'd know that if you didn't lack common sense. He is known to fight around his walk around weight by sheep who just go by the word on the street instead of looking into it and forming their own opinion. so basically, your saying HBO and Showtime have been lying about mayweather's fight night weight for the last 8 years since he's been at welterweight?

The heavyweights

None really do, ever since they quit doing the same day weigh in.

That's about it. Most guys are cutting major weight to get a competitive advantage. 154 is a good example. Canelo, Angulo and Trout are huge. There's at least 5 guys in that division that can fight at 160. Porter and Thurman are two other examples. They can (and have) compete at 154 but they have a size and strength advantage at 147 so that's where they campaign. Boxing is all about getting some sort of advantage. That's how I feel.. Manny, Floyd, rigo, jmm don't really cut much weight at all.. I'm sure there is some more, but these guys are the most high profile

you're so naive it's unreal. Floyd can tell Showtime he weighs whatever he likes on fight night. Floyd has a history of lying. If you use some common sense and look at the two pics I posted, you can see that putting on two pounds wouldn't make that kind of difference, it's literally not possible. And this has nothing to do with hating Floyd you massive :dunce:, having to cut weight to make your weight class' limit is nothing to be ashamed of, most fighters have to do it. Anyway, I've had my say. You can believe whatever you want. That's me for now, it's nearly 6 in the morning here. I will reply to you tomorrow if you've said anything worthy. Good night/morning. :fing02: So in other words you have nothing aside from your "look at his abs doe" slogan. It's ok man, gotta hang onto something I guess:lol1:. Have a good night.

Ok i'll dumb it down for you. Floyd walks into the room saying he walks around and fights close to his natural weight. He brings in proof like the actual fight night weigh ins done by both HBO and Showtime throughout his career and says "Look here's the proof". You then come in and say "I don't believe that, I have two pics, look at his abs doe". Who are they gonna believe? I'm not arguing for the sake of arguing. Just pointing out you hating for the simple fact you feel like hating.:lol1: Oh but Floyd lies all the time doe, look at his abs:lol1: you're so naive it's unreal. Floyd can tell Showtime he weighs whatever he likes on fight night. Floyd has a history of lying. If you use some common sense and look at the two pics I posted, you can see that putting on two pounds wouldn't make that kind of difference, it's literally not possible.

lmfao what do you mean it doesn't mean anything? Are you purposely acting stupid? It's pretty clear you lack common sense and are arguing just for the sake of it. You have no idea what you're talking about. Ok i'll dumb it down for you. Floyd walks into the room saying he walks around and fights close to his natural weight.

Just pointing out you hating for the simple fact you feel like hating.:lol1: Oh but Floyd lies all the time doe, look at his abs:lol1: Quick, look at my avatar next to Porter, tell me how much I weigh! :lol1:

Lost what argument? You said Floyd doesn't walk around near his fighting weight and have proven nothing. Showing a couple pics and saying "look at his abs" didn't prove anything my friend. When you have some actual proof then come back. Til then "look at his abs doe" is not compelling evidence. You'd make a terrible lawyer. lmfao what do you mean it doesn't mean anything? Are you purposely acting stupid? It's pretty clear you lack common sense and are arguing just for the sake of it. You have no idea what you're talking about.
