Whats Mayweathers Natural weight class?

[macman]

Would put him as a big lightweight or decent size Junior Welter these days.

At Lightweight he could shove around the very big Philip Ndou, & he's shown power at JW, although been pretty careful of opponents.

Anything above that he has rely purely on speed, & choosing older, slower opponents.

Floyd's best weight was lightweight. Nobody could beat him at 135 lbs.

he could still knock guys out at 140........he has to go to the body against de la hoya....Can stop him by 11

[Pico Hollywood]

he didnt HURT baldi either but he won every round...so whats your point????

The Point is He wants To sound Like He knows What hes talking about.. Floyd natural weight is Probably 135 he did his most damage at That Weight class.

He won't stop De La Hoya. He couldn't stop Baldomir and he was hitting him at will, De La Hoya has been stopped once and that was at 160 lbs by a stray punch while he was holding his own against a much bigger man, I can't see Mayweather making a dent in him.

I also think that Mayweather's power at 140 lbs is easy to overrate because he scored TKOs over Gatti and Bruselles, but Gatti is not really regarded as a defensive genius (and his corner pulled him out, he was still begging for "one more round" and Bruselles had been stopped by a far weaker fighter than Mayweather, and faster.

Put it this way at 140 and up Mayweather's lack of concussive power is his biggest weakness. At 135 and down he was without weaknesses altogether.

DLH is hardly a natural 154 pounder himself, id say he is "naturally" 5-7 lbs bigger than floyd

DLH was in the 160's last month, Floyd MIGHT be over 150 after Thanksgiving dinner. There is definitely more than a 5-7 pd difference between the two.
